Poor Nick Lampson, he’s just all tuckered out these days:
“I need a break. We all do,” says democrat Nick Lampson, who is defending his seat in the 22nd Congressional District. “It’s an exciting period, though, when we have an opportunity to meet so many people.”
Well, I have good news for you, Nick! It looks like [...]

Some great news out of Texas!
There was a lot happening in Texas’ 22nd District this weekend, starting with this press release from the Olson campaign. It seems that the Houston-area CBS affiliate KHOU has rejected an add from the DCCC promoting Rep. Nick Lampson:
[Friday] KHOU Channel 11 pulled a misleading television ad by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee that falsely [...]

Just what is Ron Klein scared of?
He has backed out of a debate with Republican challenger Allen West.
You can’t really blame him. It’s hard to debate when you’re on the wrong side of the facts.

John Murtha manages to say something stupid…again
Take a peek at how Rep. John Murtha is defending himself after calling his constituents racists:
“What I said, that indicted everybody, that’s not what I meant at all. What I mean is there’s still folks that have a problem voting for someone because they are black,” Murtha said.
Murtha said the history of southwestern Pennsylvania is [...]

Nick Lampson can’t even count on his own wife’s vote
Here are the details from Erick Erickson at RedState (emphasis in the original):
If I were one of the Texas-22 citizen questioners attending this debate, I would ask a simple question of Congressman Lampson: does Lampson anticipate getting his wife’s vote in the November election?
Turns out, according to sources we have in Texas, that Nick Lampson’s [...]

Who knows how to promote small business?

I’d rather be average and smart…
…than “beautiful” and stupid. Nick Lampson’s “beuatiful” spokesman Trevor Kincaid would obviously prefer to be the latter. Take a look at the errors, lies, and inaccuracies he provided to the press on behalf of his boss, Nick Lampson, and ask yourself if you think that Lampson is spending this $60,000 a year wisely.
I love the [...]

Wait a minute…who’s a racist?
Well, according to Rep. John Murtha, his own constituents are. Just listen to ABSCAM John:
The 17-term Democratic congressman told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in a story posted Wednesday on its Web site: “There is no question that western Pennsylvania is a racist area.”

Murtha, who backed Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton in the state’s April primary, told the [...]

Who is America’s greatest enemy?
Well, according to Wayne Parker’s opponent in Alabama’s 5th Congressional District, it’s not al-Qaeda.
It’s not a resurgent Russia.
It’s not a communist dictator like Hugo Chavez.
It’s not an Iranian regime that denies the Holocaust and wants to wipe Israel off the map.
It’s not OPEC nations hijacking our economy through artificially high oil prices.
No, according to Parker [...]

Stop Nick’s Tricks, Send Pete Olson to Congress!
The people at Pete Olson’s campaign have created a great site tracking the positions on Nick Lampson’s campaign page and comparing it to his record in Congress. What they’ve found is that when Lampson say he support’s something, it’s a highly nuanced claim indeed.
For example, while he told a constituent this summer that he had [...]
