LR EXCLUSIVE!

From Eric Dondero:

Libertarian Republican had a chance to interview Republican political consultant Roger Stone last night, about the current campaign he is coordinating - Kristin Davis for New York Governor. Ms Davis, of course, is the famed New York City Madame who ran an escort service for high-level Manhattan clients. One of her clients was ex-NY Governor Eliot Spitzer.

She is now running a serious, hard-hitting campaign for Spitzer's former office.

Stone informed LR that Davis's campaign will be well-funded. They already plan to spend over $400,000 on ballot status. She will be running on the Personal Freedom Party line, however, she's also hoping to win the nomination of the Libertarian Party.

According to Stone, Davis says she absolutely adores the Libertarian Party folks and is well over 80% in agreement with the Party platform. However, she's also concerned that some purists may be a little less welcoming of her candidacy. Additionally, she is a little uncomfortable with the complicatedness of the LP's nominating process and requirements for the ballot line position.

Breaking News: Stone informed LR that Davis will be attending the upcoming Libertarian Party of New York convention in two weeks.

Stone also stressed that Davis plans very much to reach out to Republicans, and although she will not be listed on the ballot "technically" as a GOPer, she feels in many ways to be a Republican at heart. In fact, in a recent interview with Philly.com she used the term "Libertarian Republican," to describe her political affilation and beliefs.

Davis said she views herself as a Libertarian/Republican, but she's old-school conservative - lower taxes, less government - not morally conservative.

Although, her top issues are Personal Freedom stances, such as Marijuana legalization, Prostitution, and Gay Rights, Fiscal Conservatism is very high on her agenda. She has a balanced budget plan in the works which promises not to raise property taxes or state income tax rates.

She is also a fan of the pro-capitalist writings of Ayn Rand, and a devotee' of economists Frederich Hayek, Ludvig von Mises and Milton Friedman.

Above all, Stone was adament that Kristin Davis is a serious candidate for Governor, and that they are fully planning to run a well-funded and agressive campaign to win.

We will be regularly covering Kristin's campaign here at LR. Early next week there might be a big announcement from her campaign that you will hear about first right here! In the meantime visit KristinDavis2010.com to learn more, volunteer or make a contribution.
