Gia Arnold: Never Mind
A few Wednesdays ago, Orleans County state senate candidate Gia Arnold ended her campaign because her marriage was falling apart. I wrote about it – and the odd pointlessness of her withdrawal – here.
But last Friday – the day commonly reserved for politicians to release bad news – Ms. Arnold told the Buffalo News that she was back in the race.
“When I made my announcement last week, I never fathomed the hundreds of texts, calls and emails that I received, almost all of which called for me to stay in this race and fight for truth, honesty and what is right for our Senate district. For me, telling the truth and being honest with my supporters and the citizens is the most important aspect of running for and representing the people, even if it means losing some support and not helping myself”

Antoine should jump parties. They’ll take anyone they can get.
That pic of her and those two dirty-looking old men is just plain creepy. You know that if she wasn’t 24, they wouldn’t be clasping her hands so enthusiastically. Bleh.
The best part is if you see the entire picture Russ Thompson is wearing filthy dirty sneakers…
“For me, telling the truth and being honest with my supporters and the citizens is the most important aspect of running for and representing the people, even if it means losing some support and not helping myself.”
Honey, you already helped yourself to some strange dong that wasn’t your husband’s. I get that you’re all about telling the truth and fighting for freedom, but did telling the world how lousy a lay your husband is have to be part of it?
