Article by John on March 17th, 2010 at 4:27 pm While I disagree with Senator Pridemore that a bad bill with a couple of good provisions is better than no bill at all, Craig deserves praise for staking out a very clear position on health care reform. The Democrats have to pass legislation that will provide health care at a reasonable cost to both businesses and individuals. It [...]
Article by John on February 21st, 2010 at 5:01 pm Top Two Primary System is Flawed Citing a desire to not “thin the field of Democrats” in the primary, Deb Wallace withdrew from the 3rd district race to replace Rep.

Article by John on September 10th, 2009 at 8:20 am The possibility of David Hedrick, spokesman for the angry Town Hall mob locally, running against Brian Baird in the next election cycle is intriguing. Since there are already two other possible Republican contenders, it means there would be 3 R candidates running in the primary. If another Democrat enters the race and challenges Baird, that would mean the republican vote would be chopped into [...]
Article by John on August 6th, 2009 at 2:30 pm Image via Wikipedia One would think that after the last town hall sessions where his anti-war constituents tore into him in a big way, Representative Baird would be tiptoeing around trying to stay out of the war zone.
