AL-05: Parker Griffith to switch parties

http://politicalwire.com/archi…

Yep, it’s finally going to happen. A lot of people probably suspected this for some time given his complete lack of respect towards Speaker Pelosi and general dissing of the Democratic Party, but I honestly didn’t think it would be so soon. With all luck this won’t be too much of a distraction as Democrats seek to finish up passing health reform.

Naturally it would be amazing if the Democrats could slap this traitor across the face in 2010 but of course this is an extremely unfriendly district. It would be great if someone who’s in the know about Alabama politics could tell us what we could do, if anything, about this backstabbing jerk.

  1. I think I wrote that it would be helpful if he did just this.

    We can’t do better in that district, but frankly this is not much of a loss. He was clearly never going to be our 218th vote. Good riddance.  

  2. “Good luck in the Teabagger’s primary, you useless sack of shit, and good riddance.”

    It needs work, but that’s the best I can do at short notice. Maybe get Gene Taylor to call him a quitter?

  3. For every district we are going to lose in the Inland South, there’s one we have yet to pick up in the Northern suburbs.

  4. There is a very important line that you just crossed.  I put up with the rest of it for a reason, and I’m not putting up with this for the very same reason.

    Also, good luck with those former Democratic credentials when running in the Republican primary.
