Excuse Me If I’m Confused

One of John McCain’s lines in the debate the other night was saying he doesn’t change his positions in even numbered years. Apparently, this isn’t a quality that his seat mate shares.
We are all supposed to slap Jon Kyl on the back for being such a swell guy and taking the lead on an immigration […]

Pederson Within Six: Ladies and Gentlemen, We Have a Horse Race

Bruce Merrill’s KAET poll has been released, and it is up here.
As I reported earlier, Jim Pederson is within the margin of error, and Jon Kyl still hasn’t broken 50%.

Pederson Closes?

The talk among Democratic politicos today is that tonight’s Bruce Merrill poll will show that Jim Pederson is within the margin of error of Jon Kyl.
Actually, I heard that KUAT spent $10,000 on a poll, but when it showed Pederson ahead, they burried it. Would you believe, they spent an addtional $8,000 to build a […]

The Jim Pederson - Jon Kyl debate is on again for Wednesday. Apparently, it will be at 6:30 on KUAT, but some details are still being worked out. From what I heard, Libertarian candidate Richard Mack will be there.
Of course, this all could have changed since I last talked to anyone about it. It could […]

My Frustrations

The other day, I threw some totally undeserved scorn at the political reporters at the Star. I am not always happy with the stories in our morning broadsheet, but the political repoters are hard working, and their editors are a lot more interested in running their political stories than they have been in the past.
I […]

Working the Refs

So, I’m a bit confused. This may be the paranoid activist in me, but it seems like every time Jim Pederson runs a new ad, it takes ten minutes before the Star is regurgitating Jon Kyl’s press release as an “ad watch.” In the meantime, the Minutemen have this ad with various claims about Gabrielle […]

Dear Arizona Democratic Party Member,

the Arizona Democratic Party (ADP), effective immediately.
It has been a great honor to have had the opportunity to serve with you
and other local community leaders to build our […]
