Eckersley: "Ed Martin isn't a man that's fit to hold public office."

At the end of a "Random notes from Lincoln Days" blog post by Missourinet's Brent Martin, there's a noteworthy bit of audio recorded last Tuesday with Scott Eckersley. 

Eckersley worked for then-Chief of Staff Ed Martin in Governor Matt Blunt's administration, and was fired after raising questions about whether the Blunt Administration complied with the Sunshine Law (read more about that here). Eckersley was in Jefferson City to talk about strengthening the state's open records laws.

Here's what he told Missourinet about Martin's campaign for Congress:

Ed Martin isn't a man that's fit to hold public office. I think that's been proven. I think if the Missouri Republican Party sees this guy as somebody they want to support, then they're making one more mistake. And I don't have much more to say about Ed than that.  And I think voters will see that.
