Of course Petey King wont run. It would draw attention to his enthusiastic support and fundraising for the international terrorist group known as the Irish Republican Army.

Hopefully George Allen does not have enough fllow bigots in Virginia to get elected to any office!!

As you pointed out recently -- referencing Dave Weigel -- the important part of the Griffith switch is the scorn with which the local Rpublicans greeted him with. The tea-baggers are beginning to eat their own -- they hate Lindsay Graham, McCain, and call Shelby a 'Big-Government Republican." The most conservative of them -- except maybe for DeMint, Gohmert and Bachman level crazies -- have their own Doug Hoffmans ready to pounce.

We have to continue to encourage this, and we can. And when we do, we'll wind up gaining, not losing seats in 2010

I'm sure there's going to be a lot of party switching in months to come, since the new GOP re-branding strategy is too luring to ignore:

In four more days Johnny Isakson turns 65 and fully half the Senate will be covered by Medicare. On December 28, a full 50 Senators will have a direct government health care plan -- not some Federal Employee coverage procured from public insurance, but direct, government provided health care.

The public at large should have HEALTH CARE AS GOOD AS THE SENATE'S and that doesn't mean just the 'privately provided' care.

When folks talk about "as good as Congress" it is important to reference the actual providers of the plan.

Allen conceded this week that he's pondering a rematch in 2012. -- Steve Benen

Oh, goody, let Mr California Import, Felix Macaca Allen (I love pork chops! I'm not Jewish!) go for it. He may have owed a big chunk of his '06 loss to the Macaca Incident and thinks that, bar that, he'll do just fine, but... The situation in '12 will be quite different than in '06. Webb will no longer be a total unknown, non-politician, awkward on the campaign trail and close to penniless, when it came to fundraising. I may not always agree with him on every vote he took, but he's been working right hard on several issues (prison reform, reinstating voting rights to ex-felons, the new GI Bill, etc), so he'll have a nice record to run on, while what Allen will have is his dad's record as a football coach. Also, by then, Taliban Bob McDonnell, of Macaca's party, will be at half-mark of his governorship, with -- quite likely -- several albatrosses rotting nicely around his neck. Easily transferable to Allen, too. And don't think that Webb's gonna be shy of fighting, either -- he used to be a Repub himself, afterall...

Prup, @12:45. I have it, from a letter to the Editor in my weekly local rag, that calling them teabaggers is "low blow"; they prefer to be called Tea Party Movement (bowel, no doubt). He also claims that the said movement is in no way dependent on or in thrall to the Republican Party; indeed, according to him, the RP is often unhappy with the movement (eat more fiber!)

I agree with you; the RP is likely to reap that which it has seeded; the teabaggers have reached that preteen moment, when they're so full of themselves, they think they have all the answers and won't listen to anyone.

"It would draw attention to his enthusiastic support and fundraising for the international terrorist group known as the Irish Republican Army."

It would also draw attention to some of his pearls of wisdom over the years, such as his proclamation that "there are too many mosques in America" (yes, in writing "pearls of wisdom," I was being sarcastic).

Hello. Look at all the sentences which seem true and question them. Help me! Can not find sites on the: Protective table pad. I found only this - dining table pads. Table pads, worshippers of the larger percentages experiment veu oil individually that the warmth of the strip is taken on larger and more imperative organizations. Having urine boards with individuals to result them similarly is all the time, table pads. Thank :o Eleanora from Papua.
