After an almost 8 month hiatus, I have decided to rejoin the political scene...gah!
But, this was something I just could not pass up...
Yesterday Len Munsil, Republican candidate for governor of Arizona, won the primary election to run against incumbent Democrat governor Janet Napolitano....the fur is flying already.
In an article on the outcome the Arizona Republic referred to Munsil repeatedly as a social conservative...
Horror of Horrors! a Social Conservative!!! as if that's a dirty word...
Munsil called Napolitano "out of step with Arizona."
Okay, I can agree with that...but the reaction from Napolitano's minion was a preview of what we can expect in the upcoming weeks:
Barry Dill, a Napolitano campaign consultant, responded in kind.
"Over the next eight weeks, we are confident that Len Munsil will be exposed for the inexperienced, out-of-the-mainstream zealot that he truly is," Dill said. (my emphasis)
The absentee ballots haven't even been tallied yet and already they're going for the jugular...HA!
Inexperienced you say?! (according to Munsil's website he is a Reagan conservative who has spent the past two decades effectively advancing core Republican principles...)
out-of-the-mainstream zealot??!! Munsil speaks to the issues as I understand them, and I daresay many more Arizona residents agree.
As the article concluded, "and the race begins"...and it HAS!
I, for one, am going to work to defeat Janet Napolitano.
Munsil says it best:
Janet Napolitano very well represents the core values of the mainstream media. She does not represent the core values of the people of Arizona.
She has ignored border security for four years and presided over the nation’s worst crime rate. Despite asking for and receiving massive amounts of new funding, she has failed to improve education or reform CPS. She takes credit for a massive budget surplus that came about only because we ignored all of her economic proposals. She is against the Protect Marriage Arizona Amendment and is a supporter of taxpayer-funded abortion on demand.
After a much needed break from this scene, it's good to be back...
