Early voting starts today in Tennessee. I urge you to vote for these candidates!
Tennessee Republican Nominee for Gov: Ron Ramsey. Ron Ramsey is a solid conservative that really has no negatives. His real positives are his gun ratings, right to life ratings, his fiscal responsibility, and his general likability. Wamp has negatives that include voting for TARP and going back on a self-imposed term limit in Congress. Haslam is not pro-gun. He is pro-Haslam. When he first announced, I listened to him get interviewed. The thing I remember from the interview is how he stumbled when asked about abortion. You could tell he didn’t have polling data to tell him where he stood.
Tennessee Republican Nominee US House of Representatives, First District: Mahmood (Michael) Sabri. This stems from the Republican Primary in 2008. I felt that many of the attacks on Congressman Davis from Dr. Roe were unfair and outright lies. His talk of PAC money was a way to show how it is “evil,” when in fact, it is really easy to turn down PAC money when you are filthy rich. If I am pro-life, I would be happy to accept money from pro-life PACs. Following the primary, I e-mailed the Roe Campaign and asked about him filling out a Project Vote Smart Political Courage Test that gives issue positions. I was sent an e-mail with his signature saying that he would. As of today, their site still says he refused. Maybe this is more of a protest vote even against a conservative, but I do find many of his votes to be un-Constitutional as well.
