I got a press release from Jesse Kelly (who, along with the other Three Mesquiteers, is still running for congress). In it, Kelly calls Jonathan Paton’s call for Gabrielle Giffords to end earmarks a “stunt.”
Yep, Paton’s press releases have been a bit hyperbolic (I’m waiting for Paton to take credit for forcing Eric Massa from [...]
Three short observations on today’s official announcement about the modern streetcar project:
- Our friend Frank Antenori was on Jon Justice’s show this morning saying that the work on this was all Raúl Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords. He says it like this is a bad thing. Apparently, they were supposed to sit on their hands and [...]
Yesterday, Raúl Grijalva brought Labor Secretary Hilda Solís to town to tour the Kino Teen Center and Las Artes, and tomorrow, both Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords will be hosting Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
Is it just me, or does that name conjure up images of a cowled pirate from a 70’s cartoon?
LaHood, Grijalva, Giffords and Mayor [...]
A few people I have been talking to have been looking at the budget proposal that John Munger has put forward. There are many things in there to object to, and some that are just plain silly. For example, he believes that $600,000,000 can be generated over two years by taking the money raised by [...]
Laurie Roberts had a piece on the Republic’s website with the headline that screamed “Dems Smear Paton with B Word.”
Hmm. The “B” word? What was this horrible accusation that Democrats “smeared” Paton with? “Smear” usually denotes something horrible…what was this “smear”? Battery? Bipolar? Beastiality?
Nope…it’s “Bush.”
Yep, this “smear” that Roberts is refering to is a state [...]
Jesse Kelly put out a press release yesterday touting Trent Franks’s prediction that Kelly would defeat Gabrielle Giffords.
So, let me get this straight: an out of town congressman appears in town for a fundraiser for Kelly, a congressman whose politics are way out of whack with the district and whose visits to the region could [...]
So the current speculation on Jonathan Paton’s political plans run on two distinct tracks: one is that he’s hungry to make the jump now and with the current environment, why the heck not?
The other one says, no, he’ll wait. The logic in this one is that with the number of retirements in the Senate it [...]
I received a press release from Jesse Kelly’s campaign announcing that he is bringing Trent Franks to town to campaign for him.
Franks is fairly low profile and his few media splashes have been for some rather out-there positions and statements (will he call Gabrielle Giffords an “enemy of humanity”?). Kelly’s campaign seems to think that [...]
So, Mo Udall was able to do something in the World Cup of Arizona Politics that he wasn’t able to do in any of the 1976 Presidential Primaries or with the Denver Nuggets…come in first place.
Your winners are…
Gold Medal – Mo Udall (D – Tucson)
Silver Medal – Terry Goddard (D – Phoenix)
Bronze Medal – Gabrielle [...]
Jesse Kelly’s campaign sent out a press release entitled “Rep. Giffords voting record is a Threat to the Economy” criticizing Gabrielle Giffords for voting yes on two bills. One was a spending bill of the type that gets folks of Kelly’s political stripe exercised. Interestingly, in the release he claims that the bill is “pork-laden [...]
