I wish Phil was still around so I could point to my support of Halter to him as proof I don't hate Catholics.

Well Halter is Catholic, so if that was true I would never support him.

Well even though I hate Facebook Kelly definitely would have my support if I lived in California. At the end she says "Because right now they're just not safe", uh wrong. And what the the hell does Facebook have to do with creating a child assault unit and longer sentences for sex offenders?

How much would she win over Taitz? Even the Freepers seem to be sick of Taitz now. Sort of the right wing Cindy Sheehan I guess (who is now also mocked at DU.)

Harris' site is an extreme rip off of Obama's campaign site. Probably the most blatant political site ripoff I've ever seen: http://www.kamalaharris.org

Harris is pro-gay marriage too. Kind of a moot issue in any Democratic primary now in any state that's at least socially moderate. All the Democratic candidates for Governor this year in Minnesota for example were pro-gay marriage.

Looks like a teabagger is running as a Democrat against Pallone in NJ. Not that it matters really, it'll be fun watching Pallone wipe him out.

So according to the SUSA poll Harris has a 6 point lead, though 26% with 15% undecided doesn't exactly lock things up. And this Delgadillo guy isn't far enough behind to count him out if you dislike both Harris and Kelly.

Oh SUSA also has a Tea Party subsection now. So Campbell does horribly among teabaggers. Funny because he's actually quite conservative economically. But I guess he doesn't hateth teh gays enough for that racist, homophobic bigoted bunch.

Also, the birther queen is running for CA SoS.  If the CA GOP ends up nominating Orly Taitz, even though whoever they nominate is guaranteed to lose, it will be hilar

A quite charismatic black man is running for SOS in CA in the GOP primary, Damon Dunn. You might want to check him out.

And you can check out Dunn's opponent, Orly Taitz, here.  To put it as charitably as possible, what Taitz needs, in addition to a new hairdo, is a new research assistant. Tongue

Another one of my easiest votes in the primary. A smart, charismatic black republican vs a crazy woman. Not hard at all.

Definitely. Nominate the crazy woman and be entertained as she goes down in flames brutally.

About 25% of Republicans thinks Sarah Palin would be a good Presidential candidate. Enough said.

New Jersey update... rich people suck. Diane Gooch is looking likely to lose in NJ-06, while John Aslanian lost big in NJ-09.

How is Pallone doing against the teabagger?

Who are these people, and does it mean anything?

Riches spending lots of money to win the primaries in races where they have no chance in the general. So no it doesn't really matter.

I think Hooker Counties is a better description than Cow Counties. (Though granted I'm sure there are far more hookers in Clark than those places.)

Pallone appears to be unopposed in his primary.

Hmmmm, I heard there was a teabagger running as a Democrat against him. Not surprised if he failed to make the ballot though.

Pallone's likely Republican opponent does have "Tea Party Approved" on her website though, so he gets to kick a teabagger's ass regardless.

There is not a single county in the country that voted for McCain that I'd like to live in.

I think Hooker Counties is a better description than Cow Counties. (Though granted I'm sure there are far more hookers in Clark than those places.)

Of course you wouldn't want to live in any of the Hooker Counties.

Of course not. I've never actually paid for sex anyway, I've gotten a few erotic massages that count as prostitution granted, but shady massage parlors are far more easily found in any major city, and not exactly difficult to get away with even if it's illegal.

Meh, Halter would've lost too anyway. We primaried the incumbent in the state where it mattered (Pennsylvania).

I think Harris has it won for AG. The Birther lady won't win. Sad

Well Kelly is pulling ahead, but with all of San Francisco out and based on what's in, I don't see how he can catch Harris.

Campbell's winning Santa Cruz, fwiw. Probably one of the counties that carries the least weight in a GOP primary.

Campbell may well carry the Bay area. Pity that the number of Republicans there can fit into a ballroom.

The day any Republican wins the Bay Area (especially Berkeley), I will eat my hat.

He meant in the primary.

I know that.  But as he said, the amount of GOP in the Bay Area literally fits into one ballroom.  Thus, it's almost impossible for any GOP candidate to win the Bay Area (in the current status of CA that is)

     Well he is obviously exaggerating. Off the top of my head, 11% of registered voters in San Francisco County are Republicans, which works out to about 50,000 voters. You got the point, at any rate.

San Francisco has more McCain voters per square mile than Orange County.

The fact that Reid is such a pathetic person is why him managing to win would be even more hilarious.
