yes!
Blackburn really needs to go!
And the name Rabidoux is so much cooler than Low Tax Looper.
"If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy?"
I'm so thrilled that
I'm so thrilled that Rabidoux is running. Marsha Blackburn is a joke. What does she know about politics? Rabidoux is a formidable candidate. He has great experience and understands what the 7th district needs. Blackburn only cares about her rich constituents, not about the middle and working classes of the 7th. We need someone else, now, more than ever not an obstructionist who can't work with anyone.
