"And Dere Off" Thank You Jeni
I could say the press is way off but what the heck , I'm a simple guy, I don't get paid for this. If I can make you think , I did my job. If I can make you laugh, that's icing on the cake. Get over it! By the way, who would take me serious anyway? Who would even send me a letter? Thanks Jim

The first leg of the 8th district election race has begun.
From WBAY.com
Steve Kagen Planning for Second Term
John Gard announces his candidacy and WBAY has a Kagen headline. I guess there is no bias here! Suppose I win the powerball in the amount of 350 million. Will WBAY have a headline
" Kagen's Constituent Wins Lottery?"




I seen Fox 11 at 5:00 tonight and they pulled the same crap. Who announced and why have Kagen in a grocery store produce section on the report? What was Steve doing, watching the produce prices go up ? How long will the MSM tote the baggage for Steve Kagen?

By Elizabeth Ries and Chris Duffy
Republican John Gard officially announced his candidacy Sunday for the 8th Congressional District -- a seat the experienced politician narrowly lost to an Appleton allergy doctor two years ago.

Democrat Steve Kagen preferred to keep his responses forward-looking, beyond election day.
"I'm looking forward to continuing to work hard as Congressman to represent everyone," he said.
Where's a statement from John Gard?

The freshman Congressman spent Sunday afternoon out among the public in Appleton talking with constituents about his time in office.
Hey, you don't talk to people about you, you talk to them about them! Me, me, me, me, me, me. What kind of a ego maniac did we elect. To Kagens staff, can you tell him he works for the voters! His staff works too hard to try to keep this guy straight! I fell sorry for them! I wonder how often he thanks them for their hard work? They have to be saints!
"I'm in touch with everybody. I'm very accessible, very reachable. I've been all across the district, and I'm working hard," he said.

Yes Congressman Kagen, you have been everywhere but what have you done? I seen gasoline today at $3.65 gal. Food prices skyrocketing!
He also addressed what he still hopes to accomplish. Even now that he's the incumbent, he talks about change.
Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk! What has he accomplished? Gasoline is up over .60 gal since last year.

"There's a lot more work to be done to bring about the change that we really need, like reducing the skyrocketing cost for gasoline, bringing down costs for health care for everybody, and making sure we bring higher wage jobs back to Wisconsin where they belong."
Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk and more talk. He's been saying all that since he was elected. What has he done for gas prices? What has he done for health care costs? What has he done to bring jobs to his district?
But now he's working toward another goal: To be re-elected in November.
Exactly right, goals, goals and more goals! That's all he's been saying are goals and has no accomplishments!
If he was in office ten years he still would give us goals and still get nothing done!
Kagen wouldn't say if he would avoid the negative ads that Northeast Wisconsin saw in the 2006 race between him and Gard.
If the sun comes up Kagen will say it's negative. If someone sneezes at an upcoming debate he will say Gard is negative for saying "God Bless You." And then accuse John of separation of church and state for bringing up God!
"I look forward to a spirited and honest debate on all of the issues that we are faced with."
As for facing Gard again in a race some are calling a "rematch," Kagen appears confident history will repeat itself.
And what is the history of democratic congressman getting reelected? Hummmmmm?

"He's a fine fellow but we simply disagree on the direction of where our country's going to be going.
For he's a jolly good fellow, for he's a jolly good fellow! Oh brother "fine fellow"! What direction is it going now? Hummmmm?
We can't continue with the policies of the past. We have to take that step forward."
Thank you for being honest Steve. Your right you and Nancy giving us $3.65 gasoline is enough! We cannot continue your policies of the past year. Psst, Steve, I won't tell anyone on my blog but all these high prices are on your watch. John Gard is not our congressman!

Just like 2006, it appears this election could be very expensive. As of January, both Gard and Kagen already raised close to $200,000 in campaign money.
Yes Steve Kagen will have to run on his past. No Steve, George Bush is not running! You promised with your gal Nancy Pelosi to change this country. How have you changed it? The people of the 8th district will decide that.

And there off! It should be a spirited race.

To blame one man from Wisconsin for the increasing gas prices displays either your utter ignorance of the issue or your complete disregard of reality for partisan attacks.

If a person represents me in congress and I voted, I have the right to speak. What is Mr Kagen doing about higher gas prices except talk, talk,talk, about the problem. He is just making sound bites Time will tell in November. Thanks for your comment.

It always fascinates me how these people who think they're tough and pop into blogs like this with "guns blazing", don't even have the kahuna's to put their name to their slam dunks.

Anyway, I enjoyed your post and whole heartedly agree - oh and there's one spelling you left out: "dere". ;)
