That’s my district. I’ll have to send him a few $$, once I’m sure he’s not going to drop out.

Better get down to Krogers and stock up on “Oreo” cookies before the dems buy them out for throwing purposes.

I hope his candidacy is better than the website quality indicates. If he is going to be taken seriously, he needs to lay down some money on a better site.

By the way, how did Thelma Drake lose? She certainly wasn’t one of the GOP incumbents I thought would lose last November.

IIRC, her district was fairly GOP. Or no?

Was there a scandal or did you have a lazy incumbent? Or did parts of your district get a temporary case Obama-mania?

Unfortunately, it was Obama and Demo-mania that knocked her out of office. It is mostly GOP district, so Nye started sounding more centrist than left wing. He’ll reverse himself soon, and with luck, buyers remorse will remove him.

Hey guys. I haven’t posted here since the Hunter campaign ended last winter...but I was this freep and has to reply. I’m with the Smith campaign and I wanted y’all to see our new website at www.chucksmith2010.com

I saw that someone made a comment about the old site and I hope you find the new one an improvement. Chuck is in this to win.

Thank you all!
