Report: DSCC Trying to Get Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) to Retire
Via email from a friend
Posted on 02/19/2010 4:25:21 PM PST by kcvl
A well-known Washington insider has been telling Arkies this weekend that the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is trying to talk Sen. Blanche Lincoln out of running for re-election.
That would open the door for a Wes Clark candidacy. And U.S. Rep. Mike Ross would be in the race in a heartbeat

This kind of thing is going to blow up in their faces. A lot of these career democrats aren’t going to take this crap coming from some punk ass half term senator lucky enough to lie his way into the white house.

ABC White House correspondent Jake Tapper took a break from asking the President questions to ask (Tim) Griffin on twitter you gonna run against Ross? Griffin replied several minutes later Theres a lot of unhappy folks in the 4th District. I hear from them.
Tim Griffin, was a United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas from December 2006 to June 2007, appointed by Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. Griffin now runs his own businesses in Little Rock, Arkansas.

General, let’s start a third world war with Russia, Weasley Clark.
General, bombed a domestic railroad bridge killing civilians and then denied it, Weasley Clark.

If I was Blanche I would not fly in small airplanes or ride in the back seat of a Lincoln convertible

My personal favorite was Rush Limbaugh referring to Wesley Clark as “The Mad Bomber of Kosovo”. First time I heard that I couldn’t stop laughing, but it was soooooo true.

Ya know if this is true, then, then, then the Democrat Admin (Pelosi, Reid, etc.) Used a member in the worst way.
They bribed her, used her, and now the HC bill is judged as a career Killer Bill.
Sympathy vote possible ?.....if she makes a mid course correction for fooling the Tea Partiers ? Before the dems replace her ASAP ? interlesting...

What makes them think that they would be any stronger candidates?If Ross would run we would pick up his seat and take all 4 Arkansas house seats.

I'd laugh my ass off if Blanche told the DEMONRATS to pound sand...and then switched to the Republicans.

Don’t be surprised if Blanche Lincoln decides to Dodd out of the race.

To: kcvl
LOL. First they destroy her career by urging her to vote against her constituency (and we all know the heavy guns they brought against her) and now they tell her they screwed up so badly she has to retire.
She’s got to be pretty teed off.
