Roy Temple And FiredUp Accuse AP Reporter Of Being Extremist
You know you’re scraping the bottom of the barrel when the best attack you can come up with is based around ignorance of the internet. FiredUp got all sweaty and bothered about a post by Ed Martin covering the St Louis Tea Party anniversary held underneath the Arch. In the FiredUp post, which is written with maximum snark, and in Temple’s tweet, which asks Republicans to disavow extremism, the complaint is made about photographs showing Barack Obama in a unfavorable light. Temple and Nicholson, who represent the old and new guard of Democratic party hacks, make the accusation based on…
Gun Safety Tips For Post Dispatch Readers
Jake Wagman just got taken for a ride at the Post Dispatch. In what can only be explained as an incredibly clumsy PR stunt by Russ Carnahan’s staff, this picture of Russ at the St Louis Police Academy supposedly firing a pistol (“two of which were pretty close — if not right on — the bullseye!”) is just waiting to be mocked. Here’s the picture, courtesy of the Post Dispatch (though it’s not clear if they posted the picture or took it). I want to make sure that no one is getting firearm safety training from either Russ Carnahan, the…
Russ Carnahan Starts To Hear Footsteps in MO-3
Politico reports that the Cook Report has moved MO-3 from safe Democrat to Likely Democrat. That’s good news for likely candidate Ed Martin, who has put in two strong fundraising quarters and is within striking distance of parity in the cash on hand account. Here’s the paragraph: Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-Mo.), the brother of Missouri Senate candidate Robin Carnahan, is suddenly facing his first tough reelection against attorney Ed Martin, who starts the year with nearly as much campaign cash as the incumbent. The Cook Report now rates the once-safe seat, formerly held by former House Majority Leader Dick Gephardt,…
Does Russ Carnahan Deserve A Glitterbomb?
Sorry about that. I just had to work “glitterbomb” into the title. Russ Carnahan is out begging for money from the gay community – pushing a really poorly designed flyer out to his constituents asking them to come “Show their love for Russ.” As p…
Russ Carnahan Attacks His Future Self In 1990 Campaign
Google’s newspaper feature should be a cause for delight among citizen journalists. All those microfiche copies of newspapers are going online, including this wonderful little nugget on Russ Carnahan’s first attempt to go to Congress. The Southeast Missourian in September of 1990 reads: ” Russ Carnahan is trying hard to portray Bill Emerson as a “Fat Cat” politician, a carpetbagging lobbyist who moved back to the district in 1979 solely to run for Congressl as someone who is tried to special interest groups and big corporations, and is out of touch with the working people of a district.” Of course,…
Russ Carnahan Money Bomb On Last Day Of The Year?
The campaign finance reports for came out today. I’m so glad they’re online now. Makes the data super fast to analyze. I was here in the office, so I real quick glanced through the Martin/Carnahan race. Russ outraised Ed Martin, but in a very strange way. The first thing you notice is that Martin beat Carnahan in the individual contributions list. That’s a strong sign of support in an anti-incumbent year. Russ has something like 65% of his contributions from PACs (much higher than the total of Roy Blunt, which led the Post Dispatch to report on Blunt’s total), but…
Nancy Boy Russ Carnahan Needs To Be Told What To Do
You know – I’m really busy here. I don’t have time to make more clown movies. I’ve got stories breaking out the wazoo about Robin Carnahan and her merry band of progressives infesting the state offices. While 3rd Congressional District’s sitting (duck) Congressman has kept off my radar for a while, I figured it was because he keeps running out the back of any public events. Last I heard, he was holding private meetings to talk to supporters behind massive walls and gates, and only deigning to come out when flanked by score or two of union thugs with radical…
Mindy Mazur Ran America Votes During Blunt Attack Ad Campaign
I made you wait a day, but it was well worth it to find out that the second Secretary of State employee to leave Robin Carnahan’s employ and head to America Votes was actually her Chief of Staff, Mindy Mazur. Again, I’m going to have to thank FiredUpMissouri, whose job posting system once again led me right to the evidence. Mazur was the Missouri State Director for America Votes while the League of Conservation Voters was running attack ads against Roy Blunt and Blue Dog Democrats Mike Ross and John Barrow. That was a strange decision. Of all of the…
Carnahan Healthcare Town Hall: Thursday, January 14
Republican candidate for Missouri’s 3rd U.S. House seat, Ed Martin, is hosting the Carnahan Town Hall. From Ed Martin:
As you may be aware, I asked Congressman Russ Carnahan to arrange to have a final town hall before voting for any health care bill. Getting no response, I asked folks to sign an online petition requesting [...]
Before McCaskill, The Carnahan Crime Family *UPDATE With Audio Link*
Yesterday, Jamie Allman and Dana Loesch interviewed Senator Claire McCaskill. Dana pointed out to the Senator that, by shoving socialized medicine down Missouri voters’ throats, she’s going to face a massive backlash in 2012. McCaskill responded with phony indignation and predictable hypocrisy, giving us even more reasons to destroy her political career in 2012.
Dana’s [...]
