Greenwich Roundup: 07/20/10 Hypocrite: Congressional Candidate Robert Merkle: “I Forgot To Vote, But Be Sure To Vote For Me”

Amateurish Inexperience Is Beginning To Show As We Get Closer To The August 10th Primary:

The Problem Is That A Small Tea Party Faction Did Not Properly Vet Rob "I Got Issues" Merkle.

The Only Connecticut Republican Candidate Arrested For Drug Possession Rob Merkle, is not really qualified to run for Congress.

Rob "I Am A Real Tea Bagger" Merkle Is The Biggest Critic Of The American Political System,

Real Connecticut Yankees Say,....

"If You Didn't Vote. Don't Complain."

The Truth Is Guys Like Rob Merkle Are A Big A Part Of The Problem.

Rob Merkle Decided Not Be Involved
Rob Merkle Decided Not To Be A Part Of The Of The Solution
Rob Merkle Has Repeatedly Failed To Exercise His American Right To Vote.

Robert Merkle's repeated failures to vote means he doesn't deserve to hold elected office.

Rob “We All Need To Get Involved” Merkle has only voted twice in his life. Maybe Mr. Merkle was just too busy running his faltering business, Westport-based executive search firm Management Recruiters.

Rob Merkle hopes win an August !0^th primary so that he can run against Democratic Congressman and Greenwich resident Jim Himes in November. Shelton’s Dan Debicella and Bridgeport’s Rick Torres are in a three way Republican primary with Merkle of Norwalk.

According to the Norwalk Registrar of Voters, Merkle registered October 25, 2008, just before the presidential election. Records also indicated that Merkle voted in municipal elections in 2009.

In addition, Merkle lived in Florida between 1998 and 2002. According to the Secretary of State's office in Tallahassee, Florida, he registered to vote on February 25, 2001. However, there is no record of Merkle having voted.

Merkle’s lack of involvement is a red flag.

Rob Merkle, who claims to have some Tea Party support moved to New Canaan in 1992. In 1998, he moved to Florida, After being arrested for drug possession at age 32 Merkle returned to Connecticut in 2002 He then moved to Georgia for a year and came back to Connecticut in 2004.

A check of voting records in Georgia shows no indication that Merkle even bothered to register to vote.

Many say that Merkle, cares little about the issues and is just being opportunistic, because he feels that incumbents might be vulnerable in November if the Connecticut economy fails to improve.

Most long time Connecticut Yankee Republicans, who have voted all of their lives, think that Merkle is a spoiler and are repulsed by his misguided political ambitions.
