The Rahmbler

Here's the latest from the Rahm Sockpuppet front.

---------------------------------------------------------

The democrat's Rove must have heaved a sigh of relief last night, especially after the dark night of the soul that was last week's Ohio Massacre. Finally, Rahmbo has something to show his Beltway buddies (besides millions in wasted DCCC dollars) - an almost 50% primary survival rate for his invading Sockpuppet Army!

In the bluegrass mountains of redstate Kentucky, local democrats in four out of five districts fiercely fought the invading Sockpuppet Army. After the smoke cleared two out of four WarDems, Eric Streit in KY-01 and Andrew Horne in KY03, had fallen in pitched primary skirmishes. while Mike Weaver and Ken Stepp (In KY-02 & KY-05, respectively) overran local partisans. A fifth RahmPuppet, Ken Lucas in KY-04 had no primary challanger.

Meanwhile in Pennsylvannia, local democrat insurgents led by Chad Kluko shot down Tom Kovach's bid in PA18 even as Wardem Patrick Murphy's DCCC funded candidacy rolled over local candidate Andrew Warren. Three other RahmPuppets advanced unchallanged to easy primary victories.

The fly in the ointment? The bluestate of Oregon proved too blue for the under-funded Dan Davis, who lost in OR-02 to La Resistance lead by Carol Voisin.

Where does this leave us vis-a-vis the RahmPuppet Army? Truly, the merry month of May hasn't been kind to Rahmses the First. Out of thirteen primary fights in six states, only four sockpuppets managed to overrun local democrat insurgents and advance to the general. With no troops in next week's Arkansas and Idaho primary fights, we're provided a short break in the action before the titanic battles sure to ensue in the California primary. Stay tuned!

ahh what might have been

the polls continue to show a loathing of all things republican AND incumbent

what a wonderful openning for indy candidates

but you see that isn't possible

only parties of a third type
can mount the co ordinated effort this would have required

and one issue outfits didn't have the means nor the moxie it seems

being no denizen of third waters of the climatoid kind
i know not why
post nader green failed

and
its clear
the anti war types
stayed a movement
prolly will continue to stay a movement
long enough to march
all the way
to the far end
of the box canyon

and the unions
fuck them
they'd rather bore us
jobblers
with their
donky butt suck
boring from within

ahhh
t'is
a bitter troll i be
