The Pubbies must be running without saying they're Pubbies!

[napi21]

I got 2 political solicitations in the mail today. neither propoganda had a party affiliation on any of the enclosures. I found that a bit strange. Both are running for the US house seat to replace Deal. Since I didn't know either candidate, I googled their names. BOTH are Pubbies! Apparently even in northern Ga. they're afraid to admit what they are!

1. They do that here in my county for local elections all the time.

Sometimes I feel like I almost need to hire a PI to find out the political affiliations of various candidates, particularly the judges. I think it's more than sneaky and there should be a law against it.

2. I noticed a long time ago, if they don't state a party affiliation, they're usually repugs.

4. I was under the impression that it is Centrist (DLC or Conservative

Democrats who never give Party ID (Red State Dems).

I hard heard Schuler, NC Ark Lincoln.

Earlier Elections I had this. The Media usually attributes
it to Centrist Democrats.

3. They must know rethuglican is a dirty word then.

If they are afraid to state their affiliation.

7. It's amazing to me that in North Ga. anyone has to be afraid of

being a Pug! I get an absentee ballot & there's onlyONEDem on the damn ballot, and I haven't seen even ONE sign along the road for gotten a damn thing in the mail from HIM! Really ticks me off!!!! I can guarantee him the 2 votes from our house, but damn, if you can't even try I sure can'/t do it all!

5. Hey. I remember Democrats doing it long about 2002 and even 2004

Everybody does it when they have to.

6. Common around here.. The Dems usually identify themselves

republicans around here are very sneaky.. you have to do research to find out who they really are

8. The Dems should have a shot at it, "I am PROUD to be a DEMOCRAT"

The Pubs been doing the dodge game for years

[napi21]

10. I whish you were right, and I'm a proud Democrat too, but if

the Dem doesn't even get his name out to the public, nt to mention his positions on things, he doesn't stand a chance! As I said, I'm going to vote for the Dem, but if nobody else ever hears his name, it's a lost cause.

9. Farthest thing from a new phenomenon...

11. AMAZING. A large arm of my family have always been staunch dyed-in-the-wool republicans. NOW,

however, 3 or 4 (so far) have decided to call themselves Independents. I've read in several places that this is happening all over the country. This explains to me the polls which say a large percentage of teabaggers are independents. Pfffft.
