Jackson Jambalaya

I also noticed Hood taking the opportunity for some free (or taxpayer funded) tv face time with his "anti-counterfeit products" commercial.

Interesting. I believe most of the rumors you posted are going to pan out, with Delbert being the only one who might see the sense in staying where he is. 2011 is going to be chaotic for the Republicans, even if Delbert decides not to run for governor, but as long as they don't go too negative during the primaries I think they have a good chance to capture all eight state offices. The good news is that all the candidates are decent and will do a good job if elected, so the voters really can't lose.

Bozo the Clown could get elected to represent Ward 1 in Jackson and still deliver the same results the last 3 occupants of the seat have delivered. Which is NOTHING.

Big Bozo currently represents Ward 3.

Delbert claims he is staying put.

Simpson is not beating hood.

I think Hood has that spot as long as he wants it.

You know, Kingfish, I reluctantly have to agree with you today, but there's a lot of time between now and November 2011. Who knows what will change in the minds of the voters, and therefore the candidates, between now and then? Hood may decide to jump into the governor's race, although I've heard he's specifically ruled that out. I think of all the statewide offices, the AG is the one that's most likely to elect a Democrat, but if Hood moves on all bets are off.

I voted in the Democrat primary, and I'm a Republican. Why?? I voted for the lamest person I could find to oppose Gregg Harper.

Lee Yancey will obliterate Russ Latino and Lynn Fitch.

I wish someone stronger than Simpson would run. He has enough issues with his current job. Hosemann would be wise to stay put, and Pickering probably would too.

How could one miss the taxpayer-funded Steve Simpson for AG commercials? He's the big rotund guy standing in between a bunch of exceptionally fit State Troopers. He stands out like the proverbial turd in a punchbowl.

Simpson- another fat, out of shape candidate/officeholder.

What we need is more candidates sporting mullets.

Whatever became of the Monday story on the second official who has been illegally parking in handicap spaces? Was looking forward to seeing that one.

I am a solid Republican. If there is no GOP primary, I always vote in the Democrat primary for the weakest general election candidate. All of my GOP friends do this too. What is the problem with that? Lying about it is a problem; it would seem that Mr. Knox was at least honest. Also, I live in jackson, and often the only race is the Democrat primary, such as the mayors races the last two or three times.

Reeves? Lt. Gov? REALLY?

Well, he's not too bright.
He's not too sharp.
He's quite a tool.

Well, I guess he is qualified after all...

Doesn't say much for the Donkeycrats. Dude got elected statewide TWICE.

Tate Reeves is the most well educated Treasurer this state has ever had. He is a Chartered Financial Analyst. It is damned difficult to pass those exams and takes years to study for them.

I know Austin Barbour and if he decided to run for Weill's Jackson City Coucil seat, he would be considered the favorite b/c he knows how to raise tons of money, campaign, and organize…and that usually spells victory for a candidate.

I wonder if it is Charles Barbour rather than Austin that is thinking about running.

If Barbour is running it ain't because he can do one fucking thing to help Ward 1. It will ONLY be as a resume builder to springboard somewhere else though no one so far has shown the ability to bounce out of Ward 1 to something bigger and better beyond faking a 'near stroke'.

elexse3:21 Does anyone take you serious?
REALLY??
Childish attacks usually say more about the messenger than the message.
And 4:44 don't waste your time with 3:21. I have tried to present the facts. She is not interested.
Sounds like my junior high grand-daughter when she is mad at her friends.

IF you look at Tate's event host list(Porter Event), you will see two of Rankin Co Senators are not on it?

Perhaps Rosemary Barbour will run.

where have you seen Tate's event host list? where can I get a copy?

One thing about it, Mississippi will continue to run last. Sounds like the punch bowl is just going to be re-filled with the same punch, and the people will continue to drink the kool-aid.

So now we wnat to beat up republicans for voting in Democratic primaries. Lets see the majority of Mississippi has one republican if any at all canidates running in a local primary, so when a republican votes democratic we beat them up instead of being glad that they voted. In the days of 50% and less turnouts we should be praising them for voting.

The point is is what a Congressional primary. On the Republican side there were Ross, Landrum, Harper, and Shaft. No local elections involved. The question is why was he supporting Democrats in such an election other than the fact Gill was once head of the municipal association.

Then name your choice for the job.

What are Lee Yancey's qualifications for Treasurer? Does he have a current job other than being a legislator?

Since you are too lazy.

Russ Latino is one to watch. Republican's like him, Libertarians like him and even some Democrats like him. Currently checking out others. I wonder if the Fitch lady voted in Democratic Primaries in the past? I think Lee Yancey will do okay in Rankin County but will not be able to pull it off in all counties. Tate Reeves got over 80% in a few counties. I think he should stay in Senate one more term.

He is?

Just one problem, the ones that know him are few in number.

Davenport is sure trying to change that Kingfish. He's doing everything possible to get Latino's voice heard and name mentioned. At this point the only slot at the Supertalker that Latino hasn't guest-hosted is the Garden Mama's.

Garden Mama is hot.

Right. If you are limp.

g. mama is fat.

Fat is good. Ask Kenny.

I got a letter from Delbert in the mail over the weekend, asking for money and talking about all the various things he has accomplished for the state of Mississippi. If he runs for any other office, I will support whomever is running against him. I can't stand him.

Feel better?
