Republicans should be elected with a warning that the constituents aren't nearly as partisan as the candidates. Joe Schwarz made a big deal of the fact that John McCain, President Bush, and the GOP supported him but it didn't do him a bit of good because he didn't support his constituents.

I considered sitting out our governors race. Granholm is simply ineffective and I'm not sure I trust DeVos. However I'm going to vote for him and watch closely. If I don't like what I see I can vote against him next time around.

I think that's a good warning for all politicians. Yes, the party provides plenty of perks and resources, but you are ultimately accountable to the people who put you in office.

Ya know, I understand listing PA-12 as "Leans Dem." That makes sense to me given Murtha's incumbency, the significant D voter registration advantage and it's VERY slight favoring of Kerry (51%) over Bush (48%).

But safe Dem?!? ROTFLMAO!!!! There are going to be some stunned "political pundits" as we get closer to Election Day. But I'm not complaining. The longer Diana Irey is under the radar, raising $$$$ and collecting almost one thousand volunteers, the better!

If you've been considering supporting Mrs. Irey and/or Boot Murtha, but wondering if Murtha could really lose - TRUST ME! :-) Take the plunge!
