Marty Williams endorses Creigh Deeds’ Phantom Plan

Marty who?

Follow up:

For those of you in Southside Hampton Roads, Williams a former state senator who professes Reaganomics yet was left of moderate. His stand on transportation was burdening the regional taxpayers for Commonwealth responsibilities in a unconstitutional piece of legislation. Now, in a recent Virginian-Pilot opinion editorial, Williams rails Republican gubernatorial candidate and former Attorney –General Robert (Bob) McDonnell for failing to adequately defend the constitutionality of unconstitutional legislation. Go figure.

Williams was rejected as Republican banner carrier in his district for ill-conceived transportation beliefs by an underfunded challenger running a shoestring campaign. His failure to retain his seat was cause for Republicans losing the majority in the Virginia senate. Now in a sour grapes attitude, he attempts to discredit McDonnell’s specifically defined transportation plans with innuendos and suppositions; yet, when referencing Deeds’ transportation plan there aren’t any specifics. Could it be that Deeds’ plan includes the stiff tax increases in an adverse economic climate?

One need not read between lines to Williams’ ulterior motives. He has been ostracized by his fellow Republicans and is looking for solace with Democrats and a possible position in a Deeds administration. According to the latest polls there not much chance of that.
