Here’s how Jason Fields announced his candidacy:
Fields admitted that he “lied, cheated and (did) some outrageously stupid things and made horrible decisions.”
“I acknowledge the fact that I`m not perfect,” Fields said.
Apart from a 2008 drunken driving arrest while he was in the legislature, Fields declined to get into specifics. Asked whether the lying was in the past, Fields told FOX6 News:
“I don`t wake up every day and say ‘I`m going to lie today.’ Can I sit there and say ‘I`m not going to lie?’ Well, that might be a lie in itself,” Fields said.
