Northup not advised Cheney in Louisville

By Brett Barrouquere

LOUISVILLE - When Vice President Dick Cheney arrived in Louisville for a fundraiser on Monday, a familiar face wasn't there to greet him.

U.S. Rep. Anne Northup, R-Ky., who is in a re-election fight with Democrat John Yarmuth, wasn't at the airport, and her staff said she wasn't advised Cheney would be in town.

Northup's campaign manager, Patrick Neely, said he was unaware that Cheney was landing in the 3rd Congressional District until a reporter told him.

"We were not told the vice president was coming to Louisville," Neely said. "We were never called."

Snip...

Given that U.S. Sen. John Kerry, a Democrat, carried the 3rd District in the 2004 presidential race and Bush remains unpopular in the area, Republicans may think keeping Northup away from Cheney is better than putting them together, said Michael Baranowski, a political scientist at Northern Kentucky University.

2. BS - pure, unadulterated, BS. Of course, Northup knew the

VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES - she has kissed his ass every time he slithers into town - was coming to town. Her town? Right where she is running for re-election? And no one told her? Pfffttt.

Her tit is in the wringer over her ongoing Chucklenuts Love Fest and her voting record so she has to pretend she wasn't advised the most important person in her party (Chimpy is just the front man in dress up costumes) is sauntering in to campaign for repug candidates and she doesn't know? Would the person who was told Dead Eye is coming be the same staffer that told Hassert he has a nasty little problem with repugs and pages? These guys have got to get into the 21st century. Get a phone, fax machine, email addy, something, you guys are clueless. Or just hiding.

Annie - BS, liar, liar, pants on fire.
