Childers wins 1st District for Democrats

Democrats appeared to regain control of north Mississippi’s 1st Congressional District — for now.

Shortly after 9 p.m., with 80 percent of the precincts reporting, The Associated Press declared Prentiss County Chancery Clerk Travis Childers the winner over Southaven Mayor Greg Davis, a Republican, in a runoff.

The runoff was necessary after a special election last month produced no outright winner.

Boy do I know how you feel.

I know anti illegal immigration activists that voted against politicians who were against illegal immigration because they believed it would punish Bush.

The Dems ran a candidate who was to the right of the Republican candidate. That's why the Dem won.

I thought I was doing the right thing not voting for Senate seats because our GOP candidates are always far less than conservative. Looks like I am the one who had to learn that you don't let the whole house burn down if you are trying to save what you can inside. Too late now though, we are at the ash stage here now ... even the hot coals are gone. This place is a disaster area and people keep voting for the democrats. The SAME democrats even. So I didn't teach them a thing. It's more like I just rolled over. Now Republicans won't even run here.

If enough do what happened here ... and I admit I was one of the "non voters" for a long time, but I wont do it anymore, the whole country will be like West Virginia soon if we all roll over.

Do you have a link?? Because from everything that I read, he was a conservative candidate! Also, at what point are conservatives going to wake up and realize that the 'Rat party runs conservative candidates in conservative districts to get elected, we know what happens once they get to DC!!!

Rush (http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_051408/content/01125108.guest.html) talked about it today.

[The_Elucidator]

Rush (http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_051408/content/01125108.guest.html) talked about it today.

I missed Rush today but I did garner this from his transcript.


RUSH: No, my friends, the lesson in these Republican losses is that conservatives are fed up with the Republican Party and are fed up with the direction the Republican Party has taken. They have no real option in this election, so they are not voting, or in some cases they may be protesting voting against the Republican Party regardless of the candidate. And who do we have to thank for this?


Again, from what I read, both men were conservative. My guess is that this special election result was a protest vote or sit-out. Until I see more proof that this guy was some McCain clone, I will stick by my original presumption of conservatives trying to lay the screws to the GOP.

We have had a lot of McCain clones here. There was a point in time where they would run against Byrd and Rockefeller. The conservative base wouldn't organize behind them because they ticked off a few things on the list they didn't like, and ignored it if they were pro life, anti pork and fiscally concerned enough to cut the spending and work on getting jobs and getting people off welfare. So we would say, this guy isn't really a conservative and just not vote. When if we had looked at the voting climate at the time, easing the voters into more conservative candidates by voting for someone who at least made it on the ballot and certainly would have done more conservative things for the State than the 2 we have now, we could have started to move them towards going MORE conservative. Now conservatives don't even bother to run. 90% of my ballot said "no candidate filed" (and no I am not exaggerating) but why should they? They know that if they aren't the perfect candidate in the eyes of the State GOP they aren't going to get the support, they aren't even going to get media coverage. The GOP just accuses many of them of being too liberal and ignore any positions they do have that would be better than what the Senate and Congress people we have there now would do.

Not voting for or supporting the candidate who at least has more in favor for them than what we have here now hasn't created a desire to run more conservative people, it has pushed them to the point where democrats run on the GOP side just because that side of the ticket is open and they want to try and unseat the current democrat. Conservatives don't bother to run at all. That's how we got Shelly Moore Capito.

Been there done that with the not voting, and here I sit in the the State that is 50th in just about everything. (57th if you ask Obama)

[DoctorDoom]

This is a foreshadowing. On Nov 5, the Senate will have at least 60 libeRATs, that they'll pick up a minimum of 50 House seats. The voters never learn.

Also from Rush's transcript:

So if she [Pelosi] has run conservative Democrats in Tennessee, in North Carolina, in Mississippi, who are more conservative than Republican incumbents, if she has to do that and win, she will do it, and that's exactly what's happening.

[Lazarus]

The Dems ran a candidate who was to the right of the Republican candidate. That's why the Dem won.Exactly! Rush talked about this all during his first hour yeaterday... The Dems are running candidates who are running on Conservative platforms, while the RINOs are marching in lockstep off the Left cliff, sure and certain that their direction is way of the future for America...

I don't see how anyone who heard Rush's 1st hour rant yeaterday could possibly seriously consider supporting McCain and his RINO morons...

No one is teaching the GOP a lesson - The GOP is marching like blind idiots off the edge of the world... They don't deserve the support of rational, intelligent, thinking, patriotic voters... What they deserve is the miserable end they are destined to for their conscious and willful abandonment of Conservative values...

Its not the Dems at fault here - Nor is it the voters who chose the Conservative candidate... The GOP is pissing this election and their political power away... This year is the year of the utter destruction of the GOP and its entirely THEIR fault!

Okay now you are contradicting yourself. In THIS POST (http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/showpost.php?p=679408&postcount=82)
you said Rush is trying to help McCain with the whole operation chaos thing, why would he tell us not to consider supporting him if you say he's doing that to help McCain?

[Lazarus]

I'm not contradicting anything - I'm simply stating facts... I told you that I can't explain why Rush is trying to put McCain over the Dems... I just know that's what he's doing... But he also ripped McCain and his RINO thugs a new one with his monologue yesterday... And he was 100% right to do so...

It is MY opinion that anyone who heard Rush's diatribe against McCain's policy yesterday would be hard pressed to justify supporting McCain...

Did you listen to Rush yesterday, Sooz? Did ya hear his monologue on McCain's lunatic alliance with Al Gore's Global Warming con game?

[Suzie]

I can't pick up Rush here. You guys should know by now I may as well live on the moon, the employment would be the same and there would be an equal amount of things to do. He's on AM and the hills make it impossible to pick up. I can only listen in the car and it goes in and out usually extremely gratey to the point where you can't hear it clearly... very aggravating. Thus my questions about what he is saying.

Bill O'Reilly is about to tell us why he's doing it next up on his show. I guess he knows... or at least claims to.

[Lazarus]

Sooz I don't use this method myself because I can receive his broadcast on my radio, but I believe he broadcasts on the web also... Maybe that would be a good alternative for you... I know a lot of military servicement use the web as their source for Rush... Look up his website and explore that possibility...

Also he posts the transcript of each day's show on the next day, so that's one way to keep up with his opinions... I have often referred to his transcripts to gather data...

I think that some of his local stations do run a streaming audio, but to listen off his web site you have to join his Rush 24/7 site which costs something like $50/year.

Also he posts the transcript of each day's show on the next day, so that's one way to keep up with his opinions... I have often referred to his transcripts to gather data...
His transcripts are usually available on the free side of his web site around 6:00PM ET of the same day.

I have tried the online thing with other media, I can do it but it slows down my system if I am working and I am usually working when I am online. If I have a graphics program going it locks it up. I read some of the things occasionally if it's posted here. But I have so much to read so many different places online just to upkeep websites it's not something I think about very often. It takes me most of the day just to go thru all the Email I get having 4 websites to keep up with. Then there is all the stuff that comes with maintaining the sites and the server so you guys have someplace to talk about what he says. :lol:

That aint gonna happen.
