Early Voting Starts

Today we have a chance to strike a blow for liberty. Early voting begins in Davidson County and I implore you to exercise your franchise to bring honorable, small government conservatives into office. One candidate who I can not endorse is leading gubernatorial office seeker Bill Haslam who seemed to be going through the motions on the recently televised WSMV debate. Haslam's performance rang hollow and he seemed strangely unprepared- not versed in any depth on the issues. Maybe, Haslam figures with his great oil generated wealth, he can just buy Tennessee's highest office though now allegations emerging that his family's Pilot business fixed fuel prices after a hurricane may be beginning to cloud Haslam's self-certain anointing. On the positive side, I heard an ad air today on 1510 AM WLAC during the Glenn Beck show for the most qualified candidate to take the Fifth District Congress seat from uber-liberal Jim Cooper, a right-thinking conservative I endorse and will gladly vote for- Lonnie Spivak, a family man who knows the value of less intrusive government, less not more regulation, and lower taxes that allow you to keep more of what you earn and a leader who takes national security very seriously and is willing to name the radical Islamic enemy and fight to pursue victory over Islamism. Go out and vote early, but I can not recommend the old admonition in the joke to vote often.
