State Rep. spokesman-"Noriega has better story"

With the recent avalanche of press releases with South Texas datelines from the Mikal Watts campaign (for reference, look at yesterday’s Exec Summary touting an endorsement from Sen. Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa), the fine minds at QR began to wonder why a similar of pile of press releases weren’t coming from the other main contender, Rep. Rick Noriega.

We posed that query to his campaign today. Noriega consultant James Aldrete responded this afternoon that the candidate visited the Valley this week and that a comprehensive list of endorsements is in the offing in the coming weeks. But Noriega’s South Texas strategy isn’t oriented around coming up with the biggest endorsement list, he said.
