OK, now he's mine.
I just need to vent a little ...


I moved to Atlanta in 2006. I never voted for or against Saxby. I did, upon becoming a registered citizen of this state write letters and do all the things I should do... But he was not really my Senator. (it's a mindset thing... I hope you understand)

But this time, I voted -- the first time in my life voting for a senator outside of my former home state. My candidate of choice did not win. That said... I will accept it.

Chambliss did. OK. I'll own him as my senator ... but I plan on keeping his feet to the fire. This man needs to be reminded that he represents ALL of Georgia. He needs to be reminded that he does not exist anymore to serve at the pleasure of *ush... he is ours now and he must be reminded EVERY DAY that he must represent ALL OF US. HE had a free ride for 6 years ... he had the chance to ride under the radar and do nothing for Georgia while he did EVERYTHING he could for *ush.

I am angry... really angry, but I will overcome and work on getting THAT one to recognize that this state is not quite as red as he thinks it is. Saxby... you are in my sites. You WILL start to listen to the people of your state. It doesn't matter who voted for you or not... Now you need to start representing me and all the people who did not vote for you as well.

Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.

1. I admire your spirit.
But the form letters you will get back from him that explain why he's going to vote against your interests, regardless, get nauseating and end up making you feel like you are wasting your time.

That's been my experience, at least.

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.
