On Wednesday, I spoke to Liz Carter, a Republican running in Georgia’s Fourth Congressional District, which is currently held by Rep. Hank Johnson (D).
Carter is running her campaign on jobs and the economy and national security, an area where she feels Johnson has been especially disappointing . We also discuss health care, her support of the FairTax and briefly discuss free trade.

In the next podcast, I’ll be chatting with John Monds, a Libertarian candidate Governor.
If you have a candidate, no matter what party, that you would like for me to interview or questions that you would like for me to ask an upcoming guest, please drop me a line on Facebook or send an e-mail.

Jason,
I appreciate your service to the community by helping these candidates get their message out.
I met Ms. Carter Sunday evening and was impressed with her. I also think that featuring all the candidates is a very good idea, and I appreciate the fact that Pundit is doing just that.
I look forward to you advocating for a post promoting Mike Freeman in the 9th.
Liz seems like a great women. She is good on the stump. Wish she was in a different district.
Ah, suffocating dissent. Good times. That district looks pretty unwinnable for a Republican but there is always a chance. The FairTax is terrible governance but good politics in many cases. We will see how far it takes her here.
Takes Liz over to McBerryville, which further than Tipperary.
BTW, if you knew Mr. Pye you’d know that ‘suffocating dissent’ is an untrue characterization. Simply untrue.
GR8T!
Ann broke Peach Pundit. Comments are posting all catty-wampusly.
Thanks so much, Ann.
There are anti-Liz Carter trolls?? That defies reason. To get an anti-troll, you have to matter.
A wit, sir!
zing! my thoughts exactly.
FreedomWorks will endorse Tom Graves next week

From AJC Political Insider:
We’re hearing that state Rep. Tom Graves of Ranger, one of an army of Republican candidates in the 9th District congressional race to replace Nathan Deal, will get an endorsement from FreedomWorks.
This should come as no surprise.
Graves has a close association with the Dick Armey-led group, and with the tea party movement that FreedomWorks has helped stoke.
Way to discourage people from getting involved in the political process, Ann. (:<)
Ann is in timeout.
For saying that Liz’s candidacy was a waste of time? Seriously??
I don’t think it’s fair to put her in time out for expressing an opinion that you don’t agree with. If she called you hateful scum and a poster child for abortion, that would be a good reason for a time out. If she’s posted something that has been removed, that’s different.
BTW, I don’t think that about you.
Okay, I’m lost. Who is Ann and what did she do?
that’s a position I happen to agree with whole-heartedly.
Jason Pye, inventor of the ‘ann-ban’.
Her post is gone.
She was a troll and had nothing substantive to add to the discussion.
This is the first commenter I’ve personally put away in my time here.
He just thinks you like to fornicate with goats
Be gone,troll!
I certainly don’t want to get on your bad side, that’s for sure. LOL!! I found your decision to be very appropriate.
All of Liz’s positions or just some?
An insult to goats everywhere.
Sir, my name is not David Souter.
She owned this goat, it made a mess, and Jason banned it.
