Meet Tom Carey, the third Republican on the ballot today

Good solid conservative. A realtor. That means private sector. Creating wealth. Not a lawyer or politician. Opposes Obamacare. Wants to cut spending and grow the economy. Not beholden to the special interests who've bought the campaign. Here is a Fox 13 interview with him. He is ON the ballot today and if you are sick of both campaigns, here is an alternative.

Probably a good choice, but not enough name recognition. I would hope he did not sap enough votes away from Cochran to give McDaniel a win.

Tight race? Anyone game for a runoff?

"In Mississippi's first 100 years as a state, 36 different men served as U.S. Senator. In the past 97 years, there have only been 11"

At a diner in Meridian, Edward Pierce, who is 64 and supported Cochran in each of his six prior elections, said Cochran “came into office in an era of big government growth … and did his job really well.” But, Pierce said, “times have changed and we can’t afford big government anymore. And I don’t see Sen. Cochran changing.”

Conversely, I hope to hell he did.

Since you're a name recognition expert, 9:30, surely you know that's all Cackrun has going for him.

Or keep Cochran under 50%, forcing a runoff with three more weeks of lies, slander and robocalls from out of state.

I got one last night for Ronny Lott from the Jackson Chamber of Commerce from a Las Vegas number. Last I heard he was running in Madison County and Jackson was not in Mad Co.

actually @9:30 AM I hope that Mr. Carey doesn't take away any McDaniel votes and give Grandpa Thaddeus a win. 17 TRILLION dollars (US dollars for you non English speaking immigrants) is enough debt don't you think?

Hey @rethink -
Ever realize that shift came when we moved from legislature appointed senators to popularly elected ones. Are you guys advocating we return to that?

Anonymous said...

Not me @11:31! I want Haley to appoint all my senators. That's why I'm voting for Thad!!!

Anonymous said...

With Haley it is annoint, not appoint.

Ron Jeremy said...

I sure hope this guy doesnt win. He seems like an honest hard working man that wants to make a difference. Becoming a politician in Washington would take the characteristics away from him.

Alarm Clock said...

How the hell will Thad stay up late tonite? He must be racked out right now!

I voted at 3:20 at Precinct 33 (Casey School). I was number 332. Seems like a fairly low turnout in what I would assume is a Cochran-leaning box (Eastover, LOHO, Indian Village, Little Europe, et al.). Does a straw indicate which way the wind blows? We'll see.

Why would the blog moderator wait until election day to bring up the third candidate?

I would expect that of Gallo.

Doesn't know what they don't know about JJ because Gallo knows zilch.

A realtor whose industry depends on the Feds
propping up the housing market through Freddie
and Fannie is not creating wealth but tapping
into the taxpayers pocket. Power to him but
call it like it is.

Congrats to Mr. Carey. He successfully created his own stimulus package for the media until June 24th at 7:30 pm.

/ because I got a robocall at 7:30 reminding me to vote.

745 right on! I am sick of these Realtors and developers in politics. if they are not millionaires when they go in they are millionaires when they come out. well I shouldn't say that.... most politicians are. and have you ever looked at some of the crazy Mississippi code regarding Realty? it's all in their favor. and all they do is move their business to one of their family members names and keep on truckin' seems like they spend a lot of time to make sure that their industry is well taken care of. folks you need to wake up and quit voting for these people in this type of business. We have one of them in politics now that we need to get rid of....particularly one in Madison County. he is dead weight.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease.
