Vernon won't endorse Martin, but Obama finally will

Here's the radio ad that Obama recorded for Martin.

Runoff Update

Early voting started today for the runoff election for U.S. Senate between Saxby Chambliss and Jim Martin. Click here to find out where and when you can vote.

President-Elect Barack Obama recorded a radio commercial for Jim Martin that is set to start running tomorrow, but there are still no plans for a visit. Of course Obama is tied down in DC trying to figure out whether or not to make Hillary our next Secretary of State.

But Democrats, have no fear, Bill is here. President Clinton will be at Clark Atlanta University Wednesday, which backs up what most politicos are saying: The African-American turnout is essential for Jim Martin. So all of this makes sense, after all, many still consider Bill Clinton to be the first black President of the United States.

The contender that comes in second place in the general election is usually favored in the runoff, but the Republicans are working hard to increase turnout among the base. A big campaign headquarters has been set up just down the road from Kennesaw in Woodstock.

Some of her best work...

Really Good Ad

Short, Clean, Simple, Statistic Based, and Funny at the end... Notice "Women for Obama"

FairTax working for Saxby

I started to write a post about how Saxby should be using John Linder and Neil Boortz to fight hard against the misleading attacks used by the Democrats against the FairTax. Truth is, Georgians love the FairTax. It was born here. So anyway, right as I was about to write this post, I got an email letting me know that Saxby, Linder, and former Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee will be holding a FairTax rally in Cobb county later this week. They beat me to it. Good call. I'm just waiting for more ads that show what the 23% raise in sales tax is really about. Fight back Saxby.

Congressman Paul Broun tells the truth and the Dems attack

Dems attack Broun

Congressman Broun is concerned about some of Obama's socialist ideas and the Dems and media attack him. He merely voiced concerns but also said he was more than willing to work with Barack Obama on agenda items that were Constitutional. I'm not so sure I would have called Obama a Marxist in a speech, but Paul Broun is NOT some crazy right wing radical.

Change.gov... WHAT?!?

It looks like a campaign website. I'm really interested to see what happens to this site after the inauguration. It even has a place for visitors to enter their email and zip code. What kind of newsletters are they sending out? Looking at this page also made me question, "How is he going to use the word change once he's been in office for 3 years, campaigning for 2012?" It should be interesting. Oh and notice the text on the page, "Your Administration." I'm all for Obama being in touch with the people but I just hope he doesn't try to make some political gain out of good will that's not really genuine. By the way, there's already a government funded website dealing with the transition at www.presidentialtransition.gov. Notice how different they look.

Where does the media want us to go now?

The media is performing a balancing act. They are trying to portray Sarah Palin as an ignorant idiot while insisting that she is the future of the Republican party. Not my Republican Party! The liberal media are already campaigning in the race for 2012. They want Republicans at home to buy into Palin as the future, so that they can tear her apart in four years. Of course, she's riding the wave to see how far this can really go. Don't forget though, she's got two more years as Governor of Alaska. Republicans MUST counter this effort. 

I still don't really know Sarah Palin's platform. We know she's a Christian conservative. I'm a Christian and I'm conservative. But does that mean she's against liberties that the Republican party should be fighting for? The media has painted her as a crazy Christian but we don't really know for sure. She's taken a fall, and I don't think she'll be able to get back up on her feet for a long time. If she has a road to the White House, it's far in the future and she shouldn't be taking any short cuts.

Apparently the 2012 race starts now and we can't sit around and wait. We have to start supporting the real future of the party like Bobby Jindal, Mitt Romney, and closer to home, Chip Rogers -  the next GA Senate Majority Leader. The Republican party is going to have to shift more toward Libertarian or at least strict Constitutionalist ideas. In 2-4 years we are really going to have to fight hard to give the power back to the states.
