Rep. Dave Reichert has run out of money, and is pleading with supporters for last minute donations to fund his GOTV efforts.
“This race will be very close: We have had to spend our campaign coffers down to nothing and we still have critical Election Day activities that we must pay for. Can you help Dave in the final push by making a contribution?”
Eh. I wouldn’t worry so much about Dave’s campaign shutting down a day before the election. His party doesn’t seem to have much of a problem engaging in deficit spending.

News Item, Nov. 6, 2006:
ROVE ANGRY AT GOP CANDIDATE FOR FLORIDA GOVERNOR
“…President Bush jetted to Florida Monday to campaign for GOP candidates, but Charlie Crist — the Republican candidate for governor — planned to duck a rally with Bush in Pensacola to campaign at the Lox Around the Clock restaurant in Delray Beach.
The White House, which had already distributed schedules saying Crist would introduce Bush at the rally, was clearly irritated with the candidate’s decision not to appear with the president. Bush political strategist Karl Rove mockingly questioned what kind of alternate rally Crist could put together that would rival the 10,000-person crowd Bush was expected to draw.”

Oh no….according to the Rasmussen Poll today, Bush’s popularity is now 45%…the highest in sometime.
Worse yet, it is based on sample weighting of:
37.3% (DEM)
31.9% (REP)
30.8% (Unaffiliated)
If the R’s are successful in their GOTV campaign, that could swing some of these close races.
I blame that idiot, John Kerry. What a buffoon he is.
Thank God he will never, ever be President.

After this election, Reichert may not be the only Republican in financial trouble. All these illegal robocalls carry significant fines. Look for the NRCC to pay tens of millions of dollars in fines because of the volume of calls.

Goldy – In your “history” post below (which I will use later), you complain about being broke because you made a series of stoopid choices how to spend your time.
Do you think you are entitled to stick your hand into my wallet so you can live?
Just wondering…

Redneck,
Goldy made choices for the better good, the good of the community, that may have cost him financially. People like you wouldn’t understand such things. That’s why people like you should just stay the fuck out of politics.

One of the many evil aspects of librulism is that it seeks to remove the link between adverse consequences and bad choices. If successful, it inevitably leads to those same people making more bad choices.
So I’m just wondering how the fuck goldy plans to pay his bills. Does he hope to hit up The Producers? And why the fuck would he do this to his daughter. She apparently has to grow up in poverty while her father sits around masturbating about politics.
Another TJ spews:

Nathan Lane?
Don Joe spews:
Welcher, I understand what you’re worried about. I just don’t understand why you happend to be worried about it. Clearly, there isn’t any money in your wallet, otherwise you’d have paid a stupid little gambling debt. Honestly, are you afraid Goldy’s going to compete against you for a little government dole? Typical Republican hypocrite.
Mark The Redneck KENNEDY spews:
Maybe you empty skirts can explain this. Burner’s website leads with the following statement:
“…My name is Darcy Burner, and I am running for Congress because my experience as a mother…”
Huh? Experience as a mother? What the fuck does that have to do with the ability to understand complex issues and vote correctly? I suppose most of you would think it’s even better of a woman running for office claims to be a single mother especially here in FUWA.
Is that really the best she can do? Claim she’s qualified for office because she figured out how to spread her legs once? Other than being “not bush”, does she have any qualifications? Seems like just another empty skirt who could fit right in with the 99th most influential senator and the 5 time winner of the no rocket scientist award.

Way off topic, but, am I the only one for whom JCH’s “Moo…slim” chant conjures up recollections of that scene in Porky’s with the two assistant coaches in the equipment room, only with JCH on the receiving end?
Not that this presents a particularly appealing image, mind you.
Another TJ spews:
Maybe this will clear it up for you:
My name is Darcy Burner, and I am running for Congress because my experience as a mother and a businesswoman tells me that the country is headed in the wrong direction – and that together, we can change it.
It’s clear to me that the politicians in Washington, DC are out of touch, the special interests have too much power, and it’s time to take our country in a different direction.
I will focus on our priorities: keeping our promises to our veterans, protecting Social Security and pensions, standing up to big oil companies, and making sure that families who work hard and play by the rules get the opportunities they’ve earned.

proud leftist spews:
Redneck,
If parceling our citizenry into categories of “producers” and “nonproducers” should somehow become necessary, I would suggest that anyone who works in the financial services industry would hardly be deemed a producer. A parasite, perhaps, but not a producer. Also, why did you never recognize that the consequence of choosing to be stupid is to appear quite stupid to the rest of us? Stay home alone tomorrow, Mark, and drink yourself to sleep. Wednesday morning’s going to hit hard.
Don Joe spews:
“Unemployment is at record lows…”
No, sport, it’s just down. And you continue to show an amazing amount of ignorance as to exactly why unemployment happens to be down, but, then, the question does have to do with rational numbers.
But, really, if you think you can win an election by trying to convince people that they’re really better off than they think they are, have at it.

Pale Rider spews:
Yeah, unemployment is at record lows – for the last 5 1/2 years. In other words, you have to go back to the Clinton Administration to see better numbers than this.
The great claim of 6 million jobs created is a farce. Normal “churn” in business creates about 1 million jobs a year. That means NO net new jobs created during the Bush Administration.
And speaking of the great job Bush has done in raping the working people, try these numbers:
* 46+ million people without health coverage (number continues to climb)
* Median real wages down more than 6% between 2001 and 2004

Did you hear Bush came out today on the Stump today and said it’s all about Oil.
We’ve been telling you wingnuts this since the fucking beginning. Do you believe it now that the Chimp in charge finally babbles it out of his mouth? He didn’t even screw it up and mispronounce it, he knows how to pronounce Oil.
So who’s worse Kerry or Bush?
Buch has been killing our kids for $3.00 a gallon gas, while doing bubkis about weaning us of Oil….too much money for the friends in it.
They should be tried for War profiteering and treason.
CherryVanilla spews:
Did you hear Bush came out today on the Stump today and said it’s all about Oil.
Is Bush developmentally delayed? Or did he just now figure out what his Vice-President said at the London Petroleum Institute in September 1999?
For the world as a whole, oil companies are expected to keep finding and developing enough oil to offset our seventy one million plus barrel a day of oil depletion, but also to meet new demand. By some estimates there will be an average of two per cent annual growth in global oil demand over the years ahead along with conservatively a three per cent natural decline in production from existing reserves. That means by 2010 we will need on the order of an additional fifty million barrels a day. So where is the oil going to come from? Governments and the national oil companies are obviously in control of about ninety per cent of the assets. Oil remains fundamentally a government business. While many regions of the world offer greet oil opportunities, the Middle East with two thirds of the world’s oil and the lowest cost, is still where the prize ultimately lies, even though companies are anxious for greeter access there, progress continues to be slow.
Who’s slow here: the President, or his loyal followers?
