SHOCK POLL!! Republican Clint Didier pulls ahead of Patty Murray – Washington State
"Numerous changes need to be made in our bureaucratic line-up in order to bring our nation back to recognizing our highest political value -- individual liberty " -- Clint Didier
From Eric Dondero:
Just breaking from Rasmussen...
Washington's Senate race looks increasingly like a referendum on incumbent Democrat Patty Murray with two Republican candidates edging past her this month.
A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in Washington State finds Republican hopefuls Dino Rossi and Clint Didier both earning 48% support in match-ups with Murray. She, in turn, picks up 45% of the vote against the two GOP challengers. Less than 10% of voters in both cases prefer some other candidate in the race or are undecided.
Clint Didier (R) 48%
Patty Murray (D-inc) 45%
Didier is of course, a former Washington Redskin, having played for the team for 7 years, and 3 more years for the Green Bay Packers. He was in 3 Super Bowls with the Skins.
Didier is the Tea Party-backed candidate in the race. Didier won the endorsement of Sarah Palin early on. Interestingly, on his campaign website Didier lists Palin as one of his greatest heros along with "Jesus Christ," and "Ronald Reagan."
Palin's endorsement:
“I’m proud to support Clint Didier as he willingly puts it all on the line to serve Washington State in the U.S. Senate for all the right reasons! This selfless, inspiring, commonsense constitutional conservative will help put our country on the right track. Please visit Clint’s website and follow him on Twitter. Let’s get behind #86!”
And from the other end of the libertarian movement, Didier has won Ron Paul's backing, as well. Paul's endorsement, via the Daily Paul:
“I am proud to endorse Clint Didier for United States Senate.
“The American people need more than just another vote. We need a man of principle who will always stand up for what is right. We need a citizen politician who will represent US. Clint Didier is just that kind of individual.”
Though Didier is the favorite of the hard right, Rossi is supported by a number of conservative GOPers, as well. It's been a relatively friendly GOP race between the two so far. Washington has a winner-take-all top two getter primary race with all parties participating.
Pamela Geller – New Liberty Movement Superstar!
Ayn Rand would be Proud
Atlas Shrugs website publisher and self-described "Ayn Randian" Pamela Geller has appeared on numerous major media shows in the last week on the issue of the proposed New York City Ground Zero Mosque. The list of her appearances include:
MSNBC News
CNN's America Morning
NBC's Nightly News
CNN Newsroom
Fox & Friends
Fox News Huckabee Show
On MSNBC Geller said:
We know in Islamic history that they build triumphal mosques on the cherished sites of sacred lands of conquered lands. So how is building a mosque, looking down at the cemetery of ground zero where they're still finding remains outreach?
Geert Wilders taking a Jan Brewer approach against invasive Islamic Immigration to the West
"The fight for freedom and (against) Islamization as I see it is a worldwide phenomenon and problem to be solved"
From Eric Dondero:
The United States, Canada, Britain, France and Germany; those are the Nations Dutch Member of Parliament Geert Wilders hopes to rally to take a stronger stance against immigration to the West from Muslim nations. Wilders argues Islam's intolerant views clash with Western values of women's rights, alternative lifestyles, free speech, and protection of Jews.
The AP headlines:
Wilders to launch international anti-Islam group
His plan:
Wilders, who calls Islam a "fascist" religion and wants an end to immigration from Muslim nations to the West, has seen his support in the Netherlands soar in recent years.
His Freedom Party won the biggest gains in a national election last month, coming third with 24 seats, up from the nine his party held in the last parliament.
Wilders is due to stand trial in October on hate speech charges.
Interestingly, later in the piece Wilders is quoted as distancing himself from the highly controversial British Nationalist Party (BNP), suggesting more of an alliance with elements of the Conservative Party or even Nigel Farage's British Independence Party.
For the U.S. Wilders has given no indication as to which political alliances he may sake.
According to AP, he's naming the group - International Freedom Alliance. Towards the end of the year he promises an ambitious speaking agenda in all 5 countries to build support.
Emmer’s Campaign Manager "too libertarian" – He wants to Privatize State Parks
A Pot Legalizing Republican too
Tom Emmer, libertarian-conservative for Minnesota Governor has a full-time state representative as his statewide campaign manager. Rep. Mark Buesgens is described by his GOP primary opponent Tom Rees, a former legislator, as a highly skilled political operative, but perhaps a bit too over-extended.
But it is Buesgen's views on the proper role of state government that has Rees most concerned.
From the St. Paul HometownSource.com, July 15:
Additionally, Rees argues that Buesgens is less conservative than libertarian.
He is especially troubled, Rees explained, by Buesgens’ attitude towards state parks.
During a House floor debate last March, Buesgens, asked by a Duluth lawmaker whether he would be willing to close and sell the state parks, replied “Yes.”
Buesgens is viewed as a bit of a edgie rightwinger on other issues, as well.
From the Minn. Post June 3 "Tom Emmer's campaign manager is a non-traditional choice -- and a non-traditional Republican":
He's not so much right of center as he is an outspoken libertarian, who frequently does not attend House Republican caucus meetings because he doesn't like the idea of "group think."
As a state rep, Buesgens was pretty much a predictable "No!" vote on anything proposed by the DFL-controlled Legislature. Yet, as a libertarian, he would occasionally come up with a surprise vote.
Rep. Mark BuesgensFor example, in the 2009 session, Buesgens voted for a bill that would have legalized the use of medicinal marijuana. That bill passed in both the House and Senate but eventually was vetoed by Gov. Tim Pawlenty.
