NEBRASKA BLUE

Mike Nellis has a good personal diary over at Daily Kos that everyone should read, it shines some more light on Tony Raimondo and his real ideals.

Here’s an excerpt -

During a discussion on the economy Tony brought up the issue of the Death Tax and that it needed to abolished. My issue with this, and it appears to be consistent, the term “Death Tax” is a right-wing talking point. You can thank Frank Lux for that. This follows a pattern of Tony dishing out right-wing phrases and talking points.

Thanks Mike for taking the time to put it up.

Kyle Michaelis has more on Tony’s penchant for going all right wing here also -

The issue of Mr. Raimondo has been hitting the fan here in Nebraska amongst the grassroot
Dems for some time, and many have argued, (including me) that he is simply changing parties to further his own agenda of winning a Senate seat.

Tony has been a life long GOP supporter, he has donated a lot of money to the GOP, and supported George Bush and Bush’s policies, and seemingly still does. (Read the above stories).

Amazingly after 8 years of mismanagement at the hands of the GOP leadership, this guy still uses those same talking points that have gotten our country to where it is today and he expects us to buy them?

Sorry Tony, if we wanted someone like you to represent us, we would all switch parties to the GOP and vote for Mike Johanns, because there is not much difference between you and him.
Neither one of you supports Democratic principles or the best interests of working class Nebraskan’s.
