Disagreement about LNC Claims about LPMass

Blau denies making these remarks.  He notes that he was not active in the State Committee until Fall 2007 and thus would have no way of knowing what the party had done previously. The State Committee has not changed its process in contacting inquirers over the past several years.  Each inquirer is sent an issue of the newsletter.

Shortly after the Bob Barr 2008 Presidential campaign ended, I received many questions regarding both the successes and failures of the campaign.
