— LauraW UPDATE: There are statewide primaries underway TODAY, May 4th, in North Carolina, Indiana, and Ohio. If you are in one of those states, get your intolerant, hobo-beating ass to the polls.
Please call your fellow teabagging racists to make sure they do the same. Original post follows.
----------------------------------
There's a modest load of Special Elections in May.
Don't be caught flat-footed if you are in any of these districts. Democrats' best weapon, as always, is ignorance. This cycle especially. They are cottoning on to popular sentiment and do NOT want publicity for these smaller races.
Don't let them win just because nobody knows there is an election that day. Make sure people know.
GET OUT THE VOTE IN YOUR AREA.

For you TX morons:
House 100 - that means those of you in Dallas.
Senate 22 - that means those of you in Bosque, Coryell, Ellis, Falls, Hill, Hood, Johnson, McLennan, Navarro, Somervell counties.

I decided to give it a rest today and not complain about the RNC, Michael Steele, and the do-nothings in the Republican party in Washington.

Actually, the Left's most powerful weapon is political correctness because it essentially silences their opposition.

The previous rep from Texas 100 (terri hodge) just plead guilty to tax evasion. Another crook is sliding right into the vacant seat.
Can you guess what party?

This is a bit of good news on that front. The Dems lose some election money and a charity gets some money for their operations. Win-Win.
Democrats lose John Murtha's war chest to charity
Recent polls show Burns surging. A Research 2000 poll has him ahead by six points. A Public Policy Polling survey shows him leading by three. Still, Burns admits that he faces an uphill climb heading into the campaignÂ’s final days. PA 12 is chock full of Democrats, he points out; they have a significant edge in voter registration. Jimmy Carter won in this region twice. So did Bill Clinton.

Is Kasich facing any primary opponents?
Nope. Other than a libertarian.
So in other words, no, no real contender

What about the R running for Voinovich's seat? I don't even know who's running. Why don't we know these things?
Every single seat in the House and Senate is important this year. All these 'winnable' seats should receive national attention.

18 Currently in a cross functional walk through team feedback loop. Have requested unsystematic and throwaway feedback.
Your timing is impecable; I just sent this in as project update to my boss. With any luck I'll be removed from the project - or more likely take it over completly. heh.

Top Republican slams Obama on Iran, Russia
A top US Republican lawmaker on Tuesday made a sweeping election-year attack on President Barack Obama's foreign policy, blasting a landmark nuclear cuts treaty with Russia and efforts to engage Iran.

If that was Ashcroft, the Left would be saying the Bush admin is fear-mongering and playing on people's fears, again.

I did this despite Huckafat also endorsing him.
There are so many GOP candidates to fill Buyer's seat it looked like one of the school board elections .
Voted no on building a new jail. They can put up a few trailers or tents. I am not spending one dime on anything, and I sure as heck am not voting to raise taxes.

I have know idea what that means, but it keeps being repeated.

why does the AP feel the need to mention Cantor is Jewish, just because he makes remarks about our policies regarding Israel? Why is that relevant?
If Cantor was black, would it make his opinions about Africa any more or less valid?

They showed the vendor that originally tipped off the cops to the smoke coming out of the SUV on Special Report last nite. His parting words were, "If you see something, say something".

I was just thinking the same thing. I have never seen holder this serious and big sis, who heretofore has been taking things "lightly" IMHO seems to be showing her stress right on her face.
Holder is taking questions but "the investigation is ongoing" so he is very adept at not saying anything.

It's the realization that they're unqualified and in over their heads...and the public is starting to figure it out.

Kelly saying they have beefed up security in times square and he said "the guy came very quickly".....getting the impression the time between the point at which the guy drove up and started to do his thing was very short and that t shirt guy really is one of Reagan's American heroes.
