yes strange I know but in the district I ran in, Harry Mitchell is now running for congress and there is a guy named Larry King who is also running.

Both are pretty decent Dems and will be a credit to the party (Mitchell is my current state senator.)

But how do you pick?

8. Ancient king (Sumeria?) who loved his gold and was faced
with losing his daughters, whom he also loved, or his riches. Difficult choice, for him, celebrated through history.

2. I'd make my choice
depending upon which of them was more likely to beat the Republican.

5. Statistically speaking, the incumbent has a better chance against the...
Republican in November. By the numbers, Mitchell has name recognition over everybody else in the field. Is this a district where no Republican is running? Where it's simply one Democrat v. another Democrat?

9. What wonderful news!
Hayworth, an avid Abramoff suckup (off) deserves no position in any government valuing integrity. Out the criminals!

Edited on Wed Mar-15-06 03:15 PM by Selatius
Well, who has a better shot at beating him down from that seat of his?

13. As a Zonie myself, I think Mitchell has got the better chance.
Granted, he's more moderate, but this is generally considered a red state and an even redder district.

I've got no dog in this fight; not my district. I just want to see Mr. Pompadour defeated, period.
