Failed Alaska Senate candidate Joe Miller downplays FBI informant's role in campaign.

Courtesy of Alaska Dispatch  concerning the embarrassing fact that William Fulton was working for Joe Miller while simultaneously working for the FBI to gather intelligence on domestic terrorist Schaeffer Cox:

"Fulton was not 'close' to me or my campaign," Miller said via email through his spokesman Randy DeSoto, explaining that Fulton's role in the campaign was insignificant and short-lived. 

Fulton provided security for a town hall Miller held in October, brought in at the request of a campaign volunteer, according to DeSoto. The assignment went badly when Fulton detained Alaska Dispatch editor Tony Hopfinger. After the ensuing public relations mess -- which struck in the weeks leading up to the November election -- the Miller campaign decided if it needed event security again, they'd tap someone other than Fulton and his military surplus store, Drop Zone. 

Other than a few hours spent working as a security guard for an afternoon event, Fulton had nothing to do with the campaign, Miller said. 

"Fulton's actions at that town hall meeting occurred without my direction or approval … I was not even in the building when the handcuffing occurred," said Miller, adding that "Nevertheless, paid government informants should not be campaign managers or otherwise involved in political campaigns." 

"I want to make it explicitly clear that I do not believe that Bill Fulton acted with the intent to harm our campaign during the Anchorage town hall meeting this past October. In other words, I do not buy into any type of federal conspiracy against the Joe Miller for U.S. Senate Campaign," he said.

Okay a couple of things.

It is not really true that Fulton was not "close" to the Miller campaign, or that his role was "insignificant and short lived."  In fact he was likely far more involved than most people realize.

In fact Fulton was working with Joe back in 2008 when Miller and Sarah Palin tried to oust Randy Reuderich as head of the Republican Party in Alaska.

And according to my sources, though Fulton was not specifically trying to get dirt on Joe Miller while working for the FBI, he did see some things that Miller REALLY does not want to see come out in the media.

Of course if I have anything to say about it, it will DEFINITELY come out in the media.

By the way "The Vaguely Bearded One" was described to me as a paranoid schizophrenic, who constantly worried that his office was bugged or that he was being followed, so you just KNOW that right now he is losing his mind wondering how much Fulton learned during the campaign, and who he might have told.

And do you know what Joe-Joe?

You SHOULD be worried!
