Comments on: Wright-Jones Caught Off Guard by Own Record http://www.pubdef.org/2008/07/23/wright-jones-caught-off-guard-by-own-record/ CHANGE THE GAME Sun, 11 Apr 2010 12:59:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: union voter http://www.pubdef.org/2008/07/23/wright-jones-caught-off-guard-by-own-record/comment-page-1/#comment-18570 union voter Thu, 31 Jul 2008 04:04:47 +0000 http://www.pubdef.net/?p=3389#comment-18570 I'm not sure that not having passed any legislation through Speaker Rod "I never met a kid without healthcare I didn't like" Jetton's House of Representatives can be fairly used as a mark against Robin. It is unfortunate that the General Assembly is dominated by such right wing ideologues that they actively worked to increase the number of people in this state without health insurance. It also makes it really hard for a progressive rep to get anything passed. I don't think getting a nod from Jetton and the other extreme right wingers for a little bill is much of a mark for Hubbard. I think most blue collar voters are more interested in knowing that Rodney's campaign is substantially funded by the same guy, Rex Sinquefeld (sorry if I'm not spelling your name right, Rex) who bankrolled Blunt's campaign before he quit and is now funneling cash to Sara "every thirteen year old should have a gun" Steelman. I just hope he hasn't permanently coopted PubDef too, because I also used to find it informative.

First of all, many publications endorse candidates. Secondly, shouldn't it be published that a candidate who claims to be completely progressive missed a third of the progressive votes. Pubdef would report on Robin Wright-Jones if she passed legislation. But I guess they don't have to worry about that. I suppose that an informed voter like yourself would know that she hasn't passed any. an informed voter:

No matter how many times you provide a disclaimer about you being on retainer with the Hubbard campaign, it's still blatantly obvious that you're pushing his agenda and purposely trying to present Wright-Jones in the most negative light possible. Your actions this election cycle have led me to the conclusion that pubdef lacks credibility when covering political races, which is a shame, because I used to really enjoy reading your perspective on issues.

Not related? Is it possible to build a 75-acre development in an urban area without using eminent domain? No. “Besides this event was about Robin’s support of the eminent domain constitutional amendments, and had nothing to do with the land assemblage bill.”
