Faceoff.

Tate Reeves won the first round of voting in the poll asking who you support for the Lieutenant Governor Republican nomination. Now we are going to have a lil ole runoff. Tate and Del get to go at it again while everyone else watches. Interesting the Queen beat both Phil, who IS an incumbent, Billy, and Stacy.

Phil Bryant
56 (10%)
Delbert Hoseman
106 (20%)
Billy Hewes
64 (12%)
Tate Reeves
176 (33%)
Stacy Pickering
34 (6%)
Mary Hawkins-Butler
76 (14%)
Alan Nunalee
10 (1%)

Reeves got almost twice as many votes as Hewes & Pickering combined.

That is probably fairly accurate for where the Republican primary for Lt Governor will begin. No surprises there.

Fun, but in an election, Hoseman has better marketing and is a far more attractive candidate.
Indeed, of all the Mississippi candidates, Hoseman is the only one who could have national appeal.

Any notion that an online poll where one can vote multiple times is "probably fairly accurate for where the Republican primary for Lt Governor will begin" is laughable.

Any poll for statewide office in which Mary Hawkins-Butler takes 14% of the votre is ENORMOUSLY laughable.

Hosemann won't settle for Lt Gov.

I am a solid republican, but I would vote for Osama Bin Laden before I would vote for Stacy Pickering. He is a pompous jerk who thinks he is God. Crooked crooked crooked. Don't forget that he is better than you. Ask him and he will tell you.

7:02, Hoseman isn't running for LG. He'll make his announcement this week at Neshoba.

8:30, I wasn't able to vote multiple times. It looked like I could but it never registered any votes except my first.

Still having problems with polls so I took it down. sorry.

All KF's polls allow multiple votes. Not instantaneous but over time while the vote remains open.

Well I couldn't vote at all, trust me had I the opportunity Mary Hawkins would have won.Can you tell me what qualifies Delbert Hosemann for LG when we just voted him SOS I don't think he has served long enough to or/ done anything transformational to justify his all so cant live with out him as LG attitude.

Anonymous said...

So exactly what kind of transformational activities did Phil perform?

Have you stopped to see all the updates to the laws in all the divisions under Hosemann he has brought about? Plus, have you seen all the enforcement actions taken since he's been in office? Compare THAT to any other SOS in the past. www.sos.ms.gov.

Tate Reeves is just a chubby child.

Yup. While Pickering brags about his three million. You know, I watched his meet the candidates video on youtube the other night. 8 1/2 minute video. With two minutes to go he finally mentioned fraud and even then only a couple of times, never mentioned corruption.

Hoseman will run his old commercial and win hands down

This comment says more about you than Mr. Reeves. A personal attack shows lack of class. You may not care for his politics and that is your right. But based on my knowledge he is a bright star in this state.

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.

Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? 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. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
