Today is the beginning of the 60 day “grace” period of the McCain-Feingold bill that makes it illegal for any organization to do a TV or radio spot about a candidate for Federal office.Which leads me to announce the new component at the top of the right sidebar.
As I said before, I can't vote for him because I don't live there. But name recognition is everything, so I'll do my small part to help him get some.
District 22 is Tom Delay's old district. Texas law stipulates that he must live in his district on election day to be eligible for the position. He obviously is not going to be living there on election day, so his Democrat opposition has used this as an excuse to force him to remain on the ballot. Some goofball court upheld their twisted interpretation of this state law. If he wins the vote anyway, he will be disqualified because he isn't living there. The Democrat candidate wins by default, even if he doesn't get a majority vote.
There is another option for voters in District 22 who find this distasteful. Bob Smither, Libertarian. Mr. Smither's blog is at Bob's Campaign. In addition to the sidebar ad, his blog will be in my main blogroll at least until election day.
The sidebar ad will also remain there through election day.
