    Are you an elected Democrat? Someone who managed to survive the whacking this week, but is still looking forward to early retirement beginning in 2012? We've got the perfect political consulting firm for you: Grayson-Ugyur . . . Sitting in for Ed Schultz this evening, Cenk Ugyur embraced Dem loser Alan Grayson's hyper-confrontional campaigning style, while adding a suggestion all his own: Dem arrogance and triumphalism. Please, Dems, retain this apocryphal firm immediately: we could be headed to the first 435-0 House in history. View video here.

    The PowerPoint slides presented to House Republicans in January 2009 seemed incongruously optimistic at a time when the very word “hope” belonged to the newly ascendant Democrats and their incoming president, Barack Obama. “If the goal of the majority is to govern, what is the purpose of the minority?” one slide... --snip-- He said his team was thrilled when Mr. Sestak raised a public objection, arguing that, in fact, he voted with Ms. Pelosi 97 percent of the time.

  • Grayson: It stinks running in a gerrymandered district, or something

    Really? The big reason Alan Grayson gives for losing his seat after running one of the most despicable campaigns ever is … gerrymandering? Just to clarify the issue, Republicans did win thirteen straight Congressional elections in FL-08, but Cook has it as an R+2, which shouldn’t be an insurmountable disadvantage for a good candidate. Of course, it’s easier to blame gerrymandering than his own bizarre decision to smear his opponent for his belief in Christianity by calling Daniel Webster “Taliban Dan.” It was going to be a tough election for Grayson anyway in this environment, but Grayson’s own actions exposed...
  • Alan Grayson: Conservatives Trying To Create National ‘Nervous Breakdown’

    On October 28 Democratic Rep. Alan Grayson appeared on the Ed Schultz Radio Show in which Ed was rambling on about ‘instances’ that occurred at Republican events and asked Grayson, of all people, his take on it. Grayson then responded by saying “I think the right wing is trying to institute a national nervous breakdown.”

    This term will see redistricting, a once in a decade process by which all congressional, state level and regional seats are redrawn. We need to work hard to elect a Republican governor, unless we want to cede as many as 6 congressional seats to the Democrats. As of this email, Sandy Adams is poised to beat Suzanne Kosmas. We may well be on track to seeing Allen West elected to Congress in South Florida. Alan Grayson appears to be going down to defeat in FL-8. But elect Alex Sink as governor and Alan Grayson, Suzanne Kosmas, Alan Boyd and Ron...

    There are hundreds of plausible nominees for the title of America’s Second-Smarmiest Politician, but surely the top spot is un-contested. Americans of all political persuasions can come together in affirming one proposition: Public life would be improved by scrubbing Rep. Alan Grayson from it. This act of civic hygiene probably will be performed Nov. 2 by voters of Florida’s Eighth Congressional District. Polls indicate that a majority of them plan to deny Grayson, 52, a second term by electing his resonantly named opponent, Daniel Webster. Grayson, never missing an opportunity to live down to his reputation, ridicules Webster’s “18th-century name.”...

    I'm sure that you all know that Alan Grayson is insane. He said that Republicans want people to "die quickly," that people will resort to cannibalism if government spending is cut, that his campaign headquarters is like "ground zero at Hiroshima," and that President Bush knew about 9/11 before it happened. Apparently, liberal hack and Congressman Anthony Weiner is unaware of these things, he simply doesn't care, or he agrees with them. Either way, he has released a video in full support of Grayson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlB83n5YbUE&feature=player_embedded Alan Grayson, of course, could not resist the endorsement and posted it on his Facebook...

    Here is raw amateur video of Gov. Sarah Palin speaking at a GOP Victory Rally in Orlando, Florida yesterday, October 23, 2010. Palin urged the crowd to keep working hard for victory all the way to Election Day, November 2. She praised Marco Rubio, Rick Scott, Allen West, Daniel Webster, and other GOP candidates in Florida. Palin called for “you know who” – referring to bizarre Democrat Rep. Alan Grayson – to be turned into a “one-term wonder” on Election Day (9:57 mark of the Part 2 video)!

    Vice President Biden will campaign for controversial Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) next week in Florida. Biden will attend an event on Monday for the first-term Democratic lawmaker, who's made waves during his term in Congress by taking outspoken liberal stances on issues. Biden will attend a reception on Monday for Grayson following a speech at a conference for the International Association of Chiefs of Police in Orlando. The event will Biden's 99th event on behalf of candidates this year. He'll attend his 100th event the same day after traveling to New Hampshire and campaigning on behalf of Ann McLane Kuster,...

    When last we checked in with nutjob Congressman Alan "Dick" Grayson, he had arranged with Head DUmmie $kimmer to allow him to do some fundraising there. So some staffer posted a form letter, under Grayson's name, and many of the DUmmies fell for it, thought it was Grayson himself writing just to them, and I'm sure some of them gave up their Domino's that night to send $10 to Grayson their hero. Well, now Grayson is so desperate--you see, the Democrat Congressional Committee has cut off all money for Grayson, because they know he is a lost cause--Grayson is...

    Congressman Alan Grayson is lashing out at negative ads against his campaign paid for by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. According to Politico Grayson is targeted by 20 percent of all the outside spending. An ad sponsored by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce calls Grayson "Nancy Pelosi's lap-dog." Grayson, whose campaign was attacked for running the negative "Taliban Dan" ads against his opponent Daniel Webster, doesn't like the ads against him paid for by outside influences. "Every single person in Orlando has seen ads an average of 70 negative ads against me on TV, 70 negative ads in the past...

He declared that the GOP health plan was for Americans to "die quickly" if they get sick. He used a vulgar acronym to say that former Vice President Dick Cheney should shut up. He called Republicans "knuckle-dragging Neanderthals, He has kept up this scorched-earth approach in his re-election campaign"

Some may be sincere, but are being duped by rich Republicans. They seem to only spew and not attempt to resolve. What are solutions that the filthy rich and Bush administration left the current administration with? I'd Like to ask a Palin, O'Donnel, Angle or Bockman. They come up empty or run from a press conference. They appear on Fox with ready questions and bash jargon. Never a solution to resolve. They...

    Just how desperate is Democrat Congressman Alan Grayson to get re-elected now that even liberals such as Contessa Brewer have questioned both his credibility and ethics? So desperate that Grayson is now pleading for donations at the Democratic Undergound. And in keeping with his normal operating procedure, Grayson accompanied his donation plea with a flat out lie. Here is Grayson making his pitch to the DUers with his lie highlighted: On Friday, the DC newspaper "Politico" reported that: (a) "conservative outside groups" have now spent over $9 million "slamming vulnerable House Democrats," and (b) the total against me will reach...

    Here is video of Florida Democrat Rep. Alan Grayson being hammered by CNN’s Anderson Cooper over his pathetic ad against his GOP opponent Dan Webster in which Grayson called him, “Taliban Dan.” Grayson tried to defend the essential content of the ad, while admitting they have now allowed the ad to die. But Anderson Cooper was relentless in calling Grayson out for the way he cut what Webster said in order to make it say something entirely opposite what he was actually saying. Cooper also called Grayson out for another ad in which he attacks Webster for not serving in...
