I am amused at Dickerson supporters who are astonished to discover any GOP presence whatsoever here. I still chuckle at Eric Dickerson himself telling a reporter that my own precinct votes 400 Democrat to 10 Republican. Ignorant!!! The GOP actually gets about 35% here. 35% doesnt win elections!Wilson46201https://www.blogger.com/profile/06987859307032067229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1160831988487428862006-10-14T08:19:00.000-05:002006-10-14T08:19:00.000-05:00So, the Sunday morning TV program appearance has been taped already, and they showed up a different times, with no joint appearance?<BR/><BR/>I'm going to Robin Run tomorrow night. I've bene to all of them, too, just like Wilson, and to be honest, Julia does usually make mince meat out of her opponents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1160829501926800012006-10-14T07:38:00.000-05:002006-10-14T07:38:00.000-05:00We hear that every day. Not just in the outer townships but in Center Township - in the heart of Julia's stronghold. Democrats who say they have voted democrat all of their lives but will vote for Eric this time.<BR/><BR/>The Arsenal Neighboorhood invited Julia and Eric to come visit with several neighboorhood groups. Eric was there. Julia choose to go to a $50 a person banquet dinner instead. She had a staff member attend and try to answer for her in her place.<BR/><BR/>After the meeting a crusty old union carpenter guy came up to Eric and asked for 25 yard signs. By the next morning they were already out in place and he needed 10 more. People were stopping him and asking for yard signs from him - even a school bus driver !<BR/><BR/>Eric got invited back down to another meeting in the same area next week.<BR/><BR/>The people down there want someone who actually shows up and will listen to them and answer their questions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1160826678104999832006-10-14T06:51:00.000-05:002006-10-14T06:51:00.000-05:00Anon 443 pm - I have to agree with you. Simply not because of the things Wilson has wrote, but also since I see we get no representation. <BR/><BR/>As an elected official you should be heard and available. I have found that Julia is making too many excuses for not being at important community events, and while people may not agree with you, at least you take a stand.<BR/><BR/>For all the Eric supporters, pass this on to him, this Dem is going to split his ticket.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1160799462560563202006-10-13T23:17:00.000-05:002006-10-13T23:17:00.000-05:00Wilson you must love talking to yourself...seems to me no one is listening...I see no response... you must think that we all agree with you...truth is, we all know that you are full of BS.Legacy Userhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624388336192960176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1160792001481774562006-10-13T21:13:00.000-05:002006-10-13T21:13:00.000-05:00btw, does anybody know when the A.P. is going to release their big parallel story about Eric Dickerson?<BR/><BR/>The AP has a biographical sketch about E.D. where it stated E.D. had been a Democrat until 2000.

He quickly ducked out of the scene, saying he didnt want to involve her or to have a confrontation.

If voters actually considered her stand on the issues, then most of them would be scared off anyway. She takes the ultra liberal stance on everything.

Carson has refused a head-to-head discussion of the issues with Dickerson. I understood the show ran at 7:30 a.m. Sunday morning, not 7:00 a.m.Gary R.

I have been to several and I challenge anyone to name even one time they both talked, today was the first and it was a taping at channel 13.

I would like to thank Wilson Allen for helping me make up my mind. If Julia keeps close company with people like him, then she could not be a good person. Fairwell Wilson and Julia.
