Much has been written in the last couple of days about Labour’s new election campaign guru US election strategist David Axelrod.
But not much is being mentioned about the Tories’ own US election strategist Jim Messina who was employed by Cameron last year – and who coincidentally worked together with Axelrod on Barack Obama’s re-election campaign.
Could that be lest someone spoils the Tories’ attempts to convince the electorate of their newfound modern tolerance towards minorities such as homosexuals by pointing out that Messina was once responsible for what has been called one of the most homophobic political attack ads in American history:
Best keep it to ourselves then.

So are we about to go in to new corporate US Style elections ?We shall have Obama’s anti gay as Con adviser & Obama’s ex pro gay adviser shooting it out. Image the shoot out’s down in the old Downing Street watering holes. May I suggest we have all the disabled dressed up Comanche’s and Apaches to give it some old charm deliverance.

I find it a damned disgrace that we have to have election strategists from the US. If they need such people then there must be some of our own in the UK?
