He never served as Marion County Prosecutor, though he did run for that position against Goldsmith. It's absurd to say that Andy Jr. was elected because of his father's influence. The one congressional race that Andy Jr. lost was in 1972,largely due to the Democratic candidate for Preident, George McGovern getting trounced in his district.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-9090607400380772512008-02-11T00:09:00.000-05:002008-02-11T00:09:00.000-05:00Again Wilson acts without asking permission. Wilson has shown Andre in a way that has upset the apple cart. <BR/>A bunch of rookies acting without thinking and no leadership. Andre will be very lucky if he wins this or any election with Wilson helping. <BR/>So Wilson who called and told you to remove the video? Andre? or one of his advisors? Duncan? Drummer? Hoggset?

Bush are in the form of veterans' health care and related issues. Those will be billions in perpetuity. And the ultimate irony is: we're going to have to battle the far right to get the proper funding for these veterans' care. It's shameful. <BR/><BR/>And knock off the Elrod Sr. stuff. He's wacky sometimes, but you really think he helped his son get jobs? <BR/><BR/>Don't you Andre supporters live in a glass house on that one? <BR/><BR/>Geeeeesh. Think about it. It's not difficult. You're criticizing Andre's next opponent for having relatives help him get jobs.<BR/><BR/>My kids have a "chat room" abbreviation for that: ROFLMAO. Roll on the floor laughing my ass off.<BR/><BR/>Attack Jon Elrod for his views on issues. That's fair game. For my liking, both of the Congressional Mar. 11 candidates are short on experience and deep views on issues. But I can wander through their pronouncements and make the best of it.<BR/><BR/>But I forgot: it's SOP for anyone who opposes the Carson machine ever, to be attached personally. <BR/><BR/>Folk are tired of that old tripe, Wilson. It's turning off folk who would otherwise kepe an open mind on Andre.<BR/><BR/>It's so 1980.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-50120572657748296252008-02-10T11:35:00.000-05:002008-02-10T11:35:00.000-05:00So the real Andre is revealed with those sexist bullsh*t comments on Nancy Pelosi! Reducing women to OBJECTS! This is infuriating! I am sure his thoughts are that women should be paid less for doing the same job as a man too! I am sure he wants his DAUGHTER treated like that too!! <BR/><BR/>This makes me SO mad.

Nice command of the English language. Must have learned how to speak at Julia's knee.<BR/><BR/>Maybe Andre found Julia "accessible" but most of the constituents I don't think would agree with that. I know plenty of people who never got a response from the late congresswomans office.<BR/><BR/>Money for schools? Andre, go ask Carl Drummer, he is sitting on millions and it isn't his money! It is OURS! <BR/><BR/>What were the remarks about Nancy Pelosi and Andre had to be careful because his wife was in the room???? Andre, do you reduce ALL women to the way they look??? Nancy got there because of her BRAINS. Let me speak slowly, he had nothing to do with the way she LOOKED. Your back-assward thinking is ancient. <BR/><BR/>Finally, are you asking us to give YOU the rebate money????

Jon independently sought and won each of his elective offices. His father isn't a politician. Further, Jon has legitimate degrees from Xavier University and IU. No mail order degrees. And finally, Jon, like his father, is a competent and able attorney and is respected as such in the legal community. Can Andre say he is a respected person in the law enforcement community as a state excise police officer who finished 88th out of 89 in his class at the law enforcement academy?Gary R.

He worked hard. And continued to win for the better part of three decades, except that one Hudnut loss no one can figure out.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, if Andre really wants to open this "insult" can of worms, he's living in a glass house. Really stupid move.<BR/><BR/>Thirdly, Andre, we aren't spending billions a week on the stupid war. It's slightly less than one billion. Small point, but, in such cases, it pays to be a little more accurate. Consult the Congressional Budget Office's figures. They're readily available.<BR/><BR/>No one said that we precinct folks were ignorant, Andre, so stop manufacturing pity ala Hillary. But there is a widespread resentment about that slating convention. I can tick off multiple problems, but suffice it to say, you won the necessary votes to avoid a second ballot: by three votes. <BR/><BR/>I know five people who tried to vote, are authorized committeemen, and could not vote. To be fair, I think two of them would've voted for Andre, but that's not the point. The convention was an organizational mess. The state party blamed the county party, and vice versa. I don't care who was responsible. It was awful.<BR/><BR/>Take the high road, Andre. You're a little young and inexperienced to succumb to the gutter politics so early.
