Congressional long shot Crowder breaks GOP mold on health care, taxes, Obama-Romney race

by George Bennett | June 19th, 2012

Crowder

Forget about the fact that Martin County Sheriff Robert Crowder is at an enormous money disadvantage in his GOP primary challenge against a national tea party celebrity in U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Plantation.

Forget that many GOP partisans are still seething over Crowder’s 2010 decision to appear in a TV ad blasting Republican nominee and eventual winner Rick Scott.

Even without those strikes against him, Crowder’s approach to the federal health care law, tax increases and whether President Obama deserves a second term are not the typical fare for a candidate hoping to woo the conservative voters who dominate GOP primaries.

    Note to all Republicans:

    See, this is called HONESTY.

    Say it with me now: H-O-N-E-S-T-Y.

    “It’s really difficult to pinpoint how you’d rate [Obama] because so much of the stuff that we are covered with, IF YOU CHECK IT, IT’S INACCURATE…”

    I know… facts… honesty… really difficult concepts for the right wing brain to understand. But try. Please at least TRY.

    SMH…

    Yeah, my clickbank stats were all messed up this week too. I had no sales on the days that the stats were down, and although it’s probably a coincidence it certainly is frustrating. ClickBank really needs to get their analytics system sorted out.

    Nate, i like the optimism and I see your point. I guess the depth is still there but you just can’t count on 2 to 3 run outings every time. Hoping those bloated run totals from the bottom three of the rotation were an abberation.

    Doug how dare you bring buffalo wild wings into this! You pit owners need to cut Doug some slack this is a blog about HIS thoughts and feeling ( Im with you on this). Im just courious as to why a city the size of Sioux Falls needs a pitbull rescue center would those resources be better used for drunk driving awareness as someone stated? I hate to break it to you but those dogs are a danger to the community every last one of them. I remember watching a special about the bear from Semi Pro guess what he killed his trainers brother whom he was video taped playing with 5 minutes before. Why you ask because he’s an animal just like your Pit. Do everyone a favor and keep your very loving and playful Pit at your HOUSE with your kids. Doug keep the blogs coming!
