Oh, please! If the Republican is a RINO rather than a Conservative it would hardly matter who wins.
Jim Tedisco is a pro-life, pro-second amendment conservative. Why would you say such a ridiculous thing?
Actually . . it does. If these early replacement (mid term) elections go Democrat that is a signal the region supports Obama's politics. If the opposite occurs, say . . . a Repub is elected . . that is an good slap in the face for Obama style politics.
This special election has become a referendum on Obama and his economic policies.
Nancy Pelosi and Obambi are sending in their helpers and former Pres Clinton is campainging to bolster the Dem candidate Scott Murphy. The Repubs are sending in Michael Steele, Rudy Giuliani, and House Minority Leader John Boehner.
