Please don't count out Dan Roberts Richard. Virginia & Matt both support his campaign, and I believe he'll be a stronger voice for us in Washington than Thompson ever was.
That's the problem with Anonymous people making statements of fact on a blog.
When someone states, "Please don't count out Dan Roberts Richard. Virginia & Matt both support his campaign" my comment is, who is Dan Roberts?
Matthew Owen
Isn't he the only Republican candidate running?

That's not what you told us Matt
Why lie?
Roberts is a disciple of Newt Gingrich. That will go over well in the new Congressional District.
Neither Virginia or Matt are supporting Dan Roberts. Just anonymous blathering.
Never heard of her.
Then you should have went to meet her. Duh!!!
Richard, you're getting testy and mean. When you get hungry you tend to get a little grumpy. Now that Hometown is closed, we all need to watch out for Richards attitude. If he starts to mouth off like he did here, it might be time to slip him a buttered biscuit or fried dark meat chicken in order to calm him down.

I feel safe in saying you know nothing about the guy and that you'd say the same thing about whoever the Republican candidate was.
Fred,
You provided the link to his website but apparently you did read it.
Fred - you provided the link to his website but apparently you didn't read it.
Duh. How could I go to meet her if I'd never heard of her? Duh.
Never heard of Dan Roberts either.
Oh, because he's a member of Newt Gingrich/American Solutions. So what? There's probably all kinds of people in that org.
What is important is that we send new people to Congress. The same ole folks been running the show for too long. Stacey Lawson represents a new opportunity for one of us and not one of them. In my book, if someone has been in office... dont vote for them.
There is no question that Lawson and Adams are the ONLY two candidates that Huffman sees as a threat in Nov.
The new 2nd has only 25% registered Republicans, so while Roberts may well make it to the run off in Nov (if the Dems split four ways and the Reps all vote for him), the election will already be over and Huffman will walk away with a landslide victory with out any need to campaign further.
If however enough Dems, independent (DTS) and even Republicans who do not wish to waste their vote (at best it's wasted at worse it's the same as voting FOR Huffman), choose to vote for Lawson or Adams, then Huffman will have a fight on his hands come November. He well knows this.
Lawson's got the business cred so that should help her with Reps and DTS, and Adams has close ties to the Northcoast (family in Carlotta) and is 4th generation Mendo ranching family herself, so that should also play well with rural voters. But those are the options.
Solomon and Roberts have no chance in Nov (but you'd be required to do simple math to understand this, so 9:37AM should please feel free to disagree).
I agree that Adams has the best chance of beating Huffman. Not sure about Lawson. But fortunately, I'm not all that obsessed with beating Huffman. He'll probably do fine if he's in there. But voting for Solomon may be an opportunity, from my point of view, to vote for someone I can really get behind. If I was worried about splitting the vote against Son of Riggs or something, I might think about the race differently. Solomon does have a chance, though it will be very much an uphill fight.
