Paterson picks pro-gun Dem for Hillary’s seat
New York Governor David Paterson must’ve pulled a name from a hat and had it read to him. After wisely bypassing Caroline Kennedy, Paterson acted with little more wisdom (from a Democratic party perspective) by choosing Rep. Kirsten Gillebrand for the New York U.S. Senate seat vacated by incoming Secretary of State Hillary Rodham.
One thing Paterson overlooked is that Gillebrand is perhaps just about the only pro-gun Democrat in the state of New York; she is possessed of a 100-percent voting record with the NRA. Why is this woman a Democrat, again?
What Gillebrand lacks in digital signage of the sort that would have come with appointing Caroline in the city, she’ll more than make up for by bringing some common sense to her party caucus in the Senate.
Sure, they’ll eat her for lunch and spit her out in two years; but by that time, maybe she’ll be ready to run for the same seat as an incumbent turncoat Republican.
Schwarzenegger could defect to Dems
In the latest interview with the controversial “Republican” California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger has said that if Barack Obama is elected to the White House, he would be open to serving in an Obama Administration as the “energy czar.” If Schwarzenegger is supposed to be a Republican, shouldn’t that be an offer he’s making to fellow RINO John McCain?
Despite all the digital signage declaring Ahh-nold a member of the GOP, it’s becoming more and more clear that his loyalties are liberal, not conservative.
While I’m not at the point of urging a recall on The Governator, I do think the California GOP needs to seriously consider backing a different candidate for the office next time around. There needs to be consequences for being a disloyal Republican.
