Regarding the candidate forum article in which my credibility was called into question, it’s near impossible to prove the content of two-way private conversations unless there is a recording.

The Mirror should have had a sentence or two about what was in the emails between me and Mayor Jim Ferrell’s former campaign manager, which pretty much indicated there was at least a phone call (which seemed to be denied by Chris Truppner in the article).

So, yes, I stretched a bit in saying that I could prove what was put to me as the probability of the mayor’s support for my campaign, but I only meant that my contact with his aide-de-camp was actual, and from that people could separate for themselves the wheat from the chaff.
