This is really good news! The Idaho Senate has not been very friendly to freedom. They've killed many good bills and helped Otter in his attempt to raise taxes last year. Take a minute to congratulate these winners:
- Steve Vick (R-3)
- Gresham Dale Bouma (R-6)
- Sheryl L. Nuxoll (R-8)
But they funded another win for big-spender Simpson who claimed to be the answer to America's growing debt problem. Congressional District 2 is waking up to his hypocrisy. In the 2008 primary he won 85.2% of the vote. He only won 58.4% this time. Chick Heileson won 24.1% of the vote.
Todd Hatfield won 43.5% of the vote to the incumbent's 56.5%. This is pretty significant for a first time candidate in a statewide race. State Controller Donna Jones won another four-year term. Maybe she'll post state spending online this time.
We have good leverage against incumbents who faced principled opposition, but we'll have to hold their feet to the fire! We have allowed unsustainable levels of government to be erected. None of it will be dismantled without our participation. There are many who would rather raise your taxes.
"Raul Labrador beat his District 1 Congressional opponent 47.6% to 38.9%. This is another win for Idaho! We don't want the east coast establishment choosing our representatives..."
ReplyDeleteThis is B.S. and you know it!
What is more 'establishment' than an immigration attorney that defends illegal aliens in his law practice, supports the Dream Act amnesty, is on retainer by the 'establishment' Idaho Dairymen's Association who support Larry Craig's AgJOBs amnesty, introduces sham immigration enforcement legislation after he says he will recuse himself from immigration legislation because he is on retainer by the IDA.
You people are idiots!!!
You cannot have it both ways. Vaughn Ward is the 'establishment' candidate, which means he has all of the GOP in D.C. behind him, pulling his strings, yet he makes rookie mistakes? You need to explain why you supported Labrador because obviously no one had the sleazy, politician insider lane more than Labrador.
ReplyDeleteIt is time to come clean on why you actually supported Labrador. Inquiring, rational minds want to know... Are you all bought and paid for by special interests, the IDA, the IACC, etc like Labrador is???
You think you are so pure, so Conservative, yet you pick someone whose hands are so dirty in Idaho special interests that they will never come clean.
So we are to take from this that you all support illegal immigration into Idaho, right?
What you apparently support by endorsing Labrador is slave labor for the IDA, Big AG and the construction industry in Idaho--wages suppressed so much that they cannot support Idaho families. And, you endorse Idaho taxpayers paying for the social costs of the special interests' illegal alien labor.
ReplyDeleteWow! Way to stand up for Idaho families!
You are no Patriots!
You are no Patriots. You are shills for the special interests in Idaho!
