Today is All Mississippi Day……..I just couldn’t resist.
I recently did a post on some gun nut that shot himself to death while displaying his new gun…..can’t fix stupid…..I have that sign above my desk and it reminds me just how stupid the human race can be.
And that brings us to Mississippi, my state…….there are many things that my fellow Mississippians do that just amazes me on how stupid they can be…..in 2010 in an election the Congressman from my district was beat by a Tea Party fave…..even though he was a Dem, he was a Blue Dog Dem which made him more conserv than 80% of self described conservs……his Congressional rating was an A….he was a pro-lifer, NRA supporter, senior issues, and middle class issues….all the issues that my district is concerned with………..his only ‘sin’ was he was a registered Dem and for that sin he was beaten by a do nothing like Palazzo.
Former U.S. Rep. Gene Taylor on Friday told the Sun Herald he will run for the District 4 U.S. House seat he lost to Rep. Steven Palazzo in 2010.
Taylor said he was on his way to Jackson to file to run as a Republican.
The primary is June 3.
In the upcoming election Mississippians have a chance to “fix stupid”……Taylor is running against Palazzo but this time as a Repub…….with his sterling record and on the right side of the argument (not something I believe but what the Hell)……he has a good chance of unseating Palazzo…but the question will be….will Mississippi keep a do nothing or replace him a proven track record of voting on the issues that Mississippians hold dear?
Is it possible that Stupid can be fixed?
Like Mississippi, Texas has GOP-gerrymandered districts where there are no Democratic candidates running. The primaries turn out to be the only real choices for voters here between the uber-conservtives and their Attila-the-hun opponent on the extreme right
Taylor was an excellent rep for the people of his district, although he and I seldom agreed on much , he did rep the people well….his only crime was he was a Dem….Mississippians elected a yo-yo with the IQ of a turnip and the only thing he voted on was to repeal Obamacare, all 43 times…..worthless person.
