Dino wants to repeal financial reform
A couple of LTEs would be nice, no?

Yesterday, handpicked Republican candidate Dino Rossi became the first Senate candidate in the country to lead the charge in calling for a repeal of Wall Street reform. Rossi hasn’t always been so vocal about his positions, though, and it is worth looking at how Rossi went from silence to repeal in 63 days.

May 25 – Rossi enters the race for U.S. Senate but refuses to state a position on Wall Street reform.<1>

June 30 – Rossi is hosted at a Wall Street, Hedge Fund fundraiser in Manhattan.<2> FEC reports show the event benefited Rossi to the tune of almost $135,000.<3>

July 14 – Rossi states his opposition to the Wall Street reform bill.<4>

July 27 early morning – Rossi lines his campaign coffers with money from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce PAC at a fundraiser in DC.<5>

July 27 mid morning – Rossi becomes the first and only Senate candidate among extremists such as Rand Paul and Sharron Angle to call for a repeal of Wall Street reform.<6>


DINO ROSSI AND WALL STREET REFORM: FROM SILENCE TO REPEAL IN 63 DAYS

1. Lying like a rug comes to mind !
Clearly you can see just where Rossi lies like a rug ! No one looks for dirt underneath ! And walking on water is another thing. Old Rossi just upped and walked right in to the issue ! Another day another dollar.
You can't join him walking across the water, what yer expected to do is imagine that !

Rossi just upped and walked across the water straight in to wall street ! Imagine that !
And this time it is Not the best deal he ever saw ! 2 pointer slam dunk there !

2. Yep, he is a jerk alright!
I just read and article about the two other guys running, Paul Akers and Clint Didier teaming up to try and convince everyone that they would be better than Rossi or Murray.

For Washington Senate candidates Paul Akers and Clint Didier, it’s been a struggle to convince national Republicans that GOP frontrunner Dino Rossi isn’t twice the candidate that each of them is.

So the two underdogs have come up with a solution: they’re teaming up.

Akers, an inventor, and Didier, a former NFL player, announced Thursday night that they will run radio ads together to present voters with a choice for Senate other than Rossi and Democratic Sen. Patty Murray, the two-term incumbent. They’re planning to air their first spots starting Monday, with the intention of running them over a two- or three-day period.

Akers and Didier plan to share airtime in their commercials, taking turns talking about their political views. They haven’t decided how many ads they’ll produce or how much they will spend to run them.


This could be bad for Rossi, I sure hope so. I live in the east side and I see a lot of signs out for Didier so with the two of them teaming up it may really do old Rossi in before he even gets started! :evilgrin:
