Charles Djou, the Republican candidate in the May 22 special election for Hawai’i’s 1st congressional district has launched a MoneyWave, which I guess is the Pacific equivalent of a money bomb. Join me in backing this Honolulu City Councilman who opposes higher taxes and seeks to repeal Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell.

The American Political Class genetically predisposed to Dominate 😉 scroll down to Marty Davis’s take on the criticism of the RNC expenditures it’s not just the RNC this is pretty much how American Political Parties operate or gravitate I can’t tell for sure. This goes back to the Democrats trying villianize The Republicans for their expenditures. I believe to directly effect their ability to raise campaign funds. I don’t see it working though.
Look Who Is Dominating The News.

I know you are a GOP’er, but in this one case, may I make the case for Ed Case. First, he is a fellow Eph, so you know he’s smart. Second, even if Djou wins, it will just be a factor of the split Dem ticket, so he’d only hold the seat until November anyway. Third, Case is, unlike the other Dem in the race, moderate, independant-minded, and not captive to the Hawaii Dem machine. I understand you’re never (barring something extraordinary) going to SUPPORT a Democrat, but in terms of long term value of your expenditures, I’d suggest there are better investments than Dijou, and in Case, you have the type of Democratic you’d rather see vs. the alternative, from a seat that will inevitably be held by the Dems in the long run.
Jeff, you make a good argument. And Ed’s brother Brad is a friend of mine. Djou may only hold the seat for 7 months, but one less foot soldier for Nancy in the current Congress. And even should Djou lose this fall, the Republicans will still muster a majority.
Plus, having a Republican in favor of DADT repeal could help move the House to vote on this, but given the President’s difference alas not.
And Jeff, I suggest you check this blog. Should Mickey Kaus best Boxer in the CA Dem primary and Campbell eke out a victory in the GOP race, then I’ll be voting Democrat for U.S. Senate.
Unfortunately for Ed Case, he has a history.
In only four years, he garnered an ACU rating of 19.25%.
His website talks a good talk, but his walk seems to be different.
The democratic version of NY-23, with two democrats splitting the vote and the Republican in striking distant. I doubt the Republican will hold the seat in November, not when if one democrat was running he could be running with 60 percent.
