Jim Martin Loves Harry Reid

Jim Martin is a liberal. Case in point: his buddy Harry Reid will be hosting a luncheon in Washington D.C. next week to raise funds for him.


Here's the email Reid sent out:

"This race is winnable, but Martin needs the funds necessary to win. I hope you will join Senator Harry Reid and Senator Max Cleland for a luncheon to benefit the campaign of Jim Martin on Wednesday, September 24th at 12:00 PM at the Hotel George - 15 E Street, NW."

The luncheon is being sponsored by Reid's PAC. I wonder what Dale Cardwell would have to say about Jim now...


We cannot afford Harry Reid running politics in Georgia, and that is exactly what we'll get with Jim Martin. A liberal Democrat of the highest order.

"Commanding Lead"

So says SurveyUSA who report in a new poll that John McCain is now enjoying a 16-point lead over Barack Obama.

Additionally they report that Saxby Chambliss has climbed to a 17-point lead over pipsqueak Jim Martin. Chambliss is once again over the 50% threshold in this poll.

Looks like lights out for Obama and Martin,

Saxby Pulls Ahead

Well it appears another faulty poll has been corrected.

Saxby Chambliss now holds a comfortable 54-36% lead over challenger Jim Martin. Saxby is well over the 50% hump and looks to be sitting pretty. Martin has just gotten back on tv with a pretty bland commercial that relies heavily on Max Cleland. Martin must realize again that even though he ran for statewide office, he holds very little name recognition.

Reason #427261 To Vote For Saxby

...Because these clowns were protesting him:

Barrel costumes aren't very flattering ladies...

Martin Just "Background Noise"

Jim Wooten hits the nail on the head today in a piece about the Democrats:

Even Jim Martin, the Democrat running for the U.S. Senate in Georgia, can’t resist the temptation to say stupid things. Opponent Saxby Chambliss has “been part of a system that’s been broken in Washington” and “I hold him accountable for the financial crisis we’re in,” said Martin. May-lar-kee. Chambliss has been there one term — of course, all this just started 8 years ago, as the left sees it — and during that time he’s been part of some problems, excessive spending among them. But on this Martin’s just background noise.

Clearly Martin's campaign is just on life support. Time to pack it away Jim, your time is up.

Georgia Still Safe

Its weird how Insider Advantage can call the presidential race in Georgia a two-point spread and then on their next poll have it be an 18-point spread.

What is up with that? I think its probably somewhere towards a 12-point spread right now, but still, this just shows how flakey these polls are.

Obama Abandons Georgia

That news coming unsurprisingly as Obama has failed to make a dent in the polls here despite his much touted opening of more shrines to the savior himself across the peach state. I guess his "grassroots domination" isn't as powerful as the media would have you believe.

McCain will win Georgia comfortably, and Obama has realized that and pulled his ads here. Its about time.
