The election isn’t until Tuesday.
Phil Roe must have a psychic amongst his campaign staff.

The debate of the United State House of Representative’s candidates for the 1st Tennessee Congressional District is available online for public download and distribution at “the detour.” The detour, a non-commercial/non-profit community radio service focused primarily on the Appalachia region, was the only radio station present, “working for the community while the corporate stations merely [...]
A few months ago, (after the Phil Roe Fiasco) Rob Russell was silently contemplating on why Democrats eat their young. Since Russell is the Democratic nominee for the First District US House seat, I worried a bit about his baby Lulu.
Then, I worried he might be getting ready to throw in the towel.
After [...]
Headline Switcheroos and Rethinking Hank
Posted in Tennessee on Aug 16th, 2008
David Davis conceded the election to Phil Roe. It’s done. There’s no point in picking-on the guy now. It’s time for us to move on. But first, I must draw your attention to this one last story because I need your advice on proper blogging etiquette.

Hey Hank, Here’s Your Sign
Posted in The Funnies, politics on Jul 16th, 2008
The Kingsport Times-News helps catch bad guys… and their good deed almost makes up for the lopsided political coverage of late… okay, not really.
C’mon! Yard signs? Hank, you actually emailed a candidate to ask how many yard signs he’d distributed throughout the district? Were you being serious or is was [...]
I hate manipulation of any type. I’m tired of it. Americans are constantly being manipulated by news media, politicians, special interest groups, ad companies, spouses, children, extended family – heck, even my dog manipulates me. I certainly don’t want to add to the daily assault.
This is why normally I would [...]
