Uh, I suggest we stop calling that guy "pancakes". It makes us look juvenile and what tends to happen is that people feel sorry for the guy being beat up on. In other words --- backfire.
Use stalker, camera stalker, Grayson's paid stalker, as that is exactly what he is. It also leaves a bad taste in people's mouths to hear about someone sneaking around filming people. Nobody likes that, it's sleazy and it will drive Grayson's negative rating up. That instant bad taste people get when they hear someones name but can't remember why.
the irony is, RAND PAUL usually photographs well, and is seldom needing
a mass media talking head "handler" an' thusly any hidden camera footage
would pick up on RAND's quiet & informal style, unlike the MAJOR mass media
"packaging" being done totally around TREY by KARL ROVE's mass media hacks!
Sure must be tempting to make someone follow him everywhere, but it's not smart, politically. Besides, I wonder how much this guy can really help Grayson. Paul says a few things that can be taken out of context, but I think that's the real problem (if there is one). Political stalkers aren't new, after all. It's not like Grayson needs someone to tape everything Paul says in order to be able to misquote him.
