Former President Jimmy Carter will be campaigning with his son, Democratic US Senate candidate Jack Carter, during stops in Elko, Fallon, Reno, Las Vegas and Henderson this week.

"On Thursday, they've scheduled more speeches and a news conference with Spanish language media in Reno, and on Friday will be at events in Henderson and Las Vegas. "

A former president willingly reaches out to the Spanish language media. And I thought everyone in the U.S. spoke English.

[weegee]

"I'm not a nut!"

[Zuben Elgenubi]

Oh great, visiting Utah. Maybe Jimmah gets to say "nukelar" once or twice this week.

You just wake up Rip..? ;

[Patrick1]

That should just about wrap up the election.....FOR THE REPUBLICAN...LOL

[Reo]

The Ensign campaign must be delighted.

[fishergirl]

HA! He ALWAYS pronounced it that way when he was in (groan!) office. And wasn't he a "nukelar" physicist?

[blue-duncan]

Another of his campaigns crashes in the desert.

"...reaches out to the Spanish language media."?!?!

Where does this nutty-and-nuttier father-and-son campaign team think they are campaigning, Venezuela?

Then again, Carter is a big suck-up to Hugo Chavez so maybe he is trying to rally all of the Chavez sychophants.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

I believe he claimed to be a nuclear engineer, from his duty in the Navy.

"On Thursday, they've scheduled more speeches and a news conference with Spanish language media in Reno...

IIRC, their transmitter runs in the tens of watts.

[MadIvan]

This is an absolutely terrible mistake by the Carter campaign. Where do they think they are, Rhode Island?

Regards, Ivan

[Kimmers]

Maybe they have themselves confused with the Kennedy's....

[T Lady]

OH NO!!!!

PLEASE, PLEASE, dear citizens of Nevada! PLEASE DO NOT LET ANOTHER MEMBER OF THIS FAMILY INTO PUBLIC OFFICE!

...If anyone remembers what it was like back in the late '70s when Jimmy was President you won't pull the lever for Jack!

[Henchster]

Hmmm. no mention of his sister, Amy Carter showing up.

Jimmy Carter: "I talked to my daughter Amy yesterday, and she told me 'Daddy, nuclear weapons are bad.'"

Between Dispsticker Jimmy, and Stickdipper Willy, we are truly lucky to be alive.

[hnj_00]

that's a wrap......if Jimmah campaigns....his son is toast!!!

but then from the released polling data...he is anyway...why doesn't this worst president in history give it a rest and just go back to Georgia?

[weegee]

And yet the media acts as if President Bush was the only President ever to do so.

[hgro]

Jimmy's formula for how his son can lose an election.

[fishergirl]

Yep, you're right. And still couldn't pronounce it.

[duckbutt]

After "not electing" a chip off the old peanut, please do something about Harry Ried? Please? For the love of God and the good of the country.... :-)
