Todd Gilbert responds to Facebook situation

As per 7Bends’ press policy as it relates to all candidates, this information was furnished by the Todd Gilbert campaign, and is published here verbatim:
Woodstock, VA – In regard to the campaign of Delegate Todd Gilbert posting a photograph of his opponent’s attack mail piece on his Facebook page, Delegate Gilbert stated the following:
“A supporter randomly came upon the attack piece against me, photographed it, and sent the photo to us. It was interesting to catch my opponent attacking me with his lying and mean-spirited mailer before he could throw the mud himself. We knew when we posted it that it would bring out John Lesinski’s well-known, nasty temper and that he would come unhinged. It obviously worked.
We also posted the picture on Facebook to let our supporters know the lengths to which he was willing to stoop with nasty and deceitful accusations at this late hour. Now he’s obviously just desperate.
My opponent has one more week left to finally tell voters where he stands on dozens of important issues and instead we get this.”
