Buh-BYE, Eric! See ya in 4 years, buddy!

Maybe there's hope. the voters of Indiana again decided that maybe a Taliborn-again for governor wouldn't be such a good idea. So Eric Miller goes back to his law practice and Dominionst group and radio hate show for another 4 years when we'll see him again running for Governor....

Buh-BYE! you old Fascist!

Oh, on another note, voters decided that Steve "I really was called up! Really!" Buyer is plenty conservative for them.
He faces Professor Dave Sanders this fall.

1. Followup questions...

> Taliborn-again

FUNNY! That an original for which you should get credit?


> Steve "I really was called up! Really!" Buyer

What's the story with the quoted nickname?

2. "Taliborn-Again" not mine.

I steal it regularly. "Rumsferatu" is mine.

Steve Buyer asked to go "on leave" from the US House because he insisted that the Army had called him to active duty in Afghanistan. He's a Colonel in the Army Reserve.
The army basically said don't be silly, we're not gonna call a sitting congressman to active status, we don't know where congressman Buyer got that idea...

But he still claims that he was called up. And I think I was the only person in the 4th district who said "Wait a fucking minnit! If he's in Afghanistan chasing Taliban, WHO is representing me in the 'Den of Thieves' in Washington???"

3. thanks for the reply

Funny, across the board. What a silly twit Buyer sounds to be.

4. I was happy he got as many votes as he did!

...I mean, Eric Miller is a lot of horrible things, but he isn't a wholly owned subsidiary of the BFEE like Mitch Daniels! Considering the expected knee-jerk adoration of All Things Bush in Indiana, I take this to mean that maybe a third of Indiana Republicans are starting to see through the Bush theatre of lies.

C'mon, White House Budget Director for the most fiscally (and otherwise) irresponsible White House in history? "My Man Mitch" my ass.

5. I was kind of hoping he's win

Kernan would have utterly, completely destroyed Miller, as Kernan would have gotten all of the swing and moderate voters on his side. As it is now, everyone's going to be playing to the middle.
