Uh, 3 Jack, what’s keeping you from running if you think it is such a great idea? Rubio isn’t running against an incumbent senator, by the way. It’s an open seat. Big difference.

Bill Greene, how does having a fundraiser for a sitting governor of another state mean “to he.. with us lowly voters.” First of all, we (i.e. Georgians) will not and do not vote in that race. Second of all, no one has voted in that race yet, so we don’t know what the “lowly voters” will say. I personally hope Rubio wins, but Saxby is certainly within his rights to support a candidate of his choice.

Get your panties in a wad over something of relevance for a change.

note georgia’s senator up for re-election is not participating. bet he would be hosting if not for campaign.

nobody stepped up against saxby in the primary so we end up with one of the most ineffective senators ever.

it is amazing that there is not one single republican with rubio like cajones willing to challenge an extremely vulnerable incumbent like isakson. just damn!

First, Saxby IS “dumb.” So, once someone is known to be dumb, “dumb-enough” really isn’t much of a stretch.

Yeah, I think I might have something to say about this later. Maybe I can even get an answer to the question I’ve been asking Erick for months.

I’ve known Saxby for a long time and quite frankly he’s absolutely tone deaf on some issues. There is a reason Rubio is leading in the polls and barring some nasty October surprise will beat Gov. Crist.

I don’t know if Saxby needs to get better political advice or if he’s getting good advice and ignoring it. Either way he’s not endearing himself to conservatives. Rubio gets it; Crist does not; sadly Saxby does not.

Charlie Crist is about as conservative as Karen Handel. So in makes perfect sense for Sonny to back someone cut from the same ” I am as conservative as the office I am running for” cloth….

I wonder if Rubio and our Guv have shared a little H20?

Must be. Surley he isn’t dumb enough to stick it to the grassroots again, especially after the last election.

Safe to say, Sonny sucks at picking candidates.

This makes so little sense on so many levels. Why, if you are Perdue or Chambliss, would you stick your neck out for a terrible governor running for re-elaction in a different state? Ol’ Saxby breaks my heart again

My understanding is that Saxby has said this is his last term. So, he and Sonny can do whatever they please, and to he__ with us lowly voters.

Thank you for beating me to the punch. Keep in mind though, Tyler is posting the endorsement this time. Maybe the two cancel each other out? Do the endorsement’s effectiveness decrease with a greater distance traveled?

Can’t say that I am surprised that Saxby and Sonny would do this. I thought Saxby got the message sent by the voters in the last election. Maybe he didn’t!
