The Old DSCC “Max Cleland” Smear
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | November 19th at 12:39 PM |
The DSCC is rallying support for Jim Martin by making false trumped up claims about how and why Sen. Saxby Chambliss ousted then-Sen. Max Cleland. Below is a list of some of their more egregious claims – mind you the DSCC is not the only group propagating false claims in a desperate attempt to unseat Sen. Chambliss. Here and now, I challenge you to | Read More »
Pull Out Your Credit Card for Saxby or Say Hello to 60 Democrats in the Senate
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | November 18th at 11:50 AM |
We need to raise money for Saxby Chambliss’s runoff. **I just gave him $500.00. What will you give?** With Stevens now behind in Alaska and Franken doing his best to steal Minnesota, we must save Saxby’s seat. It is very winnable. But he needs your support. Contribute here. Put “RedState” in the event code line.
Saxby Chambliss, Jim Martin, and Obama’s Minion Horde
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | November 13th at 02:15 PM |
You’d think Obama might not want a filibuster proof Senate, so they still have an effective foil to blame in the GOP. But it’s looking more and more like Saxby’s could be the sixtieth seat and Obama is sending his minion horde to Georgia: “Obama’s former campaign workers are now assisting Martin in his 25 offices across the state, Martin said. Those ground troops, he | Read More »

Lindsey Graham Throws Saxby Chambliss Under the Bus
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 13th at 06:05 AM |
Yesterday, Senator Jim DeMint issued a press release and letter declaring that 36 senators had pledged to support October 1, 2008, as “American Energy Freedom Day.” October 1, 2008, is the date the ban on oil exploration in the Outer Continental Shelf expires. The 36 senators, writing to Senators Reid and McConnell, wrote It is our hope that Democrats and Republicans will stand together to | Read More »
The Gang of 10 Harms America, Not Just the GOP
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 11th at 09:20 AM |
This morning on the radio I read EPU’S post, Kevin’s post, and Gamecock’s citation of Texas Ace’s comment. There is a common trait in each post that Texas Ace sums up quite well. By caving now, Saxby Shambles and Little Lord Fauntleroy, (as Doc calls him) have bailed them out of their predicament at the exact moment when the Republican party is on the brink | Read More »

How the MSM Anti-Saxby Chambliss Narrative Will Start
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 19th at 01:19 PM |
The anti-Chambliss meme will start slow. First the media will remind voters of the anti-Cleland ad Chambliss ran. You know the one. Everyone on the left claims it compared Cleland to Bin Laden, even though it didn’t. But the media will echo that sentiment. They’ll remind voters about how close the race was in all the polls. They go on the attack over Chambliss’s attacks. | Read More »
The Money Game in Georgia
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 11th at 09:44 PM |
Here’s this from the Hotline: In advance of the 7/15 Dem primary, “new campaign finance disclosure reports” show the five hopefuls “battling to take on” Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R) “are trailing far behind” in raising funds comparable to Chambliss’s $4M “re-election warchest.” ’06 LG nominee/atty/ex-state Rep. Jim Martin (D) “comes the closest,” with $329K CoH raised in “a nearly three month period” up to 6/25, | Read More »
