Not to mention that as of Saturday, there are now 50% more Republicans in House Leadership alone (9), than Dems have in the entire House of Representatives (6).
I hear a rumor that Democrats numbers are so sparse that county extension & GFP agents are going to stop paying the per-tail bounty on them, and they’re going to be declared a threatened species. But that’s just a rumor.
So I had this newspaper article pop up his morning, with a blaring headline..
..followed by the article that appeared in the Black Hills Pioneer:
Just days ahead of Liz Marty May’s formal announcement, 18 former/current South Dakota State Legislators formally endorsed her candidacy for US Congress against Dusty Johnson.
“Republican leaders across South Dakota are ready for strong conservative leadership in Washington! We are ready for a representative who has a proven track record on our cherished conservative issues, is trustworthy, reliable, and understands the way of South Dakota life,” said Sen. Phil Jenson of Rapid City.
In looking, I realize it’s the same article that came out a week ago, it’s just taking a bit to hit the papers. But as I read it, I get the same thought every single time. If May is going to claim that “18 former/current South Dakota State Legislators formally endorsed” May’s candidacy.. why aren’t they saying who those “key endorsements” are?
Silly question, I know. But there’s no list on her facebook page. There’s no list on her website. If they are claiming 18 current/former legislators who are endorsing her, don’t you think that a person could actually read who in the article making the claim?
A person can’t help but ask if they even know who these 18 are since they don’t seem to be providing information to back up the claim. That, and they don’t seem to be able to spell Phil Jensen’s name correctly.
Is the Liz May campaign frightened support will dry up if these names are disclosed? Or is the support from the mysterious 18 contingent upon her actually being able to run. These current/former legislators could be saying just keep my name out of it if you can’t get on the ballot…
Now that I’ve hit middle age, I see this and think “I just found the ultimate piece of South Dakota campaign technology…”
Where was this when I was out pounding those darn campaign fenceposts? Now I need to find 4×8’s that don’t take off like a sail in the wind when you pull them off the back of a pickup!
After she went on a rant earlier demanding people not donate to SD Republicans because people are out stealing organs for the black market,Constitution Party-wrecker Lora Hubbel came up with new invective to hurl earlier today:
Well supposedly the same source telling her these things is also claiming that Lora tapes the Rachel Maddow show on MSNBC because she doesn’t want to miss one second of it. And her mom wears army boots.
For those of you who don’t appreciate the genuine Trump straws from the 2020 presidential campaign, and how they can draw freedom to your lips, I have my other recent acquisition from the 2020 Presidential Campaigns for my collection this year…
I’ve got the genuine press credentials you can use to join CNN in Media Row with the rest of the Liberals (from the 2020 Presidential Debates, Fox Theatre, Detroit Michigan, July 30-31, 2019).
It’s plaid deja vu. But in the midst of the plaid battle, Marty threw us a curveball..
He’s got a horse now, but switched up the pattern to blue…
This might be the battle of the plaid campaign. Stay tuned for more clashes of the tartan cloth!
Update: I felt bad, because I couldn’t find any photos of GOP Gubernatorial candidate Lora Hubbel wearing plaid in a campaign setting. And she’s probably not a plaid person.
So I thought I’d be a helper, and I mocked up what I thought might be the best way for Lora to express her views on the campaign trail in plaid:
