Mayfield just follows the leader
I was rather amazed when I read the Republican assessment of Scotty Mayfield’s campaign. It is almost a carbon copy of Chuck Fleischmann’s first campaign.
He repeatedly refused to let out any information about where he stood on any issue, “in the series of debates he held with Robin Smith and other opponents.” I doubt anyone can remember anything of substance.
