24,000 Votes
Submitted by crowbar317 on Fri, 05/16/2008 - 1:59am.The primaries have me pretty exhausted, but I feel the need to post this now.
In 2006, Roger Sharpe, a relative unknown with less than six months of prep time came within 24,000 votes of unseating millionaire incumbent Virginia Foxx.
Looking over the results in MS-01, LA-06, and IL-14, and taking into account the high turnout this time around, I cannot help but think that Roy Carter has a real shot here.
I realize that many here are focusing on races closer to home, but I encourage those who can to throw a little support to Roy.
The longer Foxx stays in, the harder it will be to unseat her. To be totally honest, I thought that 06 was our only real shot. But now the window has opened wider.
Thanks for listening.
Foxx on Health Care
Submitted by J.Levi.Knapp on Thu, 03/27/2008 - 1:16am.Foxx replied as she often does, throwing numbers into an equation attempting to validate her stances and to justify her voting record.
Frontpaged, though the title might be better phrased "Foxx on Not Health Care." Thanks for staying up late to write this.
Halloween In Weaverville
Submitted by momoaizo on Tue, 10/31/2006 - 1:00am.A coded message was received, 10/28 Weaverville, BYOB, theme “Out of this World”. We knew the drill, we must find a disguise, Aliens had landed.
It was just another autumnal day, later in the season the higher we climbed. The wind was blowing, stripping the trees, exposing bare branches. The color left was still spectacular, vivid yellow touched with orange to deep red.

Jedi Ginny

Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-5th, said she was surprised by DeLay's decision, but that his donations of $15,000 to her campaigns have not affected how she votes.
"Contributions don't play a role in my decisions on voting either way. You can't let that cloud the way you think," she said.
