I'm saddened this POS is going to "represent" me in Congress
The polls here in AR put slime ball Tim Griffin ahead of Joyce Elliott.

Basically Tim Griffin caged a bunch of voters and his @$$ should be sitting in jail but instead this piece of sh** is about to "represent" me in Congress.

Arkansas is full of idiots. Why couldn't I have been born in Canada?

3. sometimes I wonder whether the RW elite just nominate these creeps for the
most cynical of reason...just to expose how laws and ethics do not matter in the big scheme TO THEM...just to show the rest of us WHO is really in control.

5. Time To Build...
Yes it will be a shame to have a vote cager and crook like Griffin (who was in the thick of politicizing the DOJ) as a possible Senator but it says more about the people who vote in the state and the work ahead. While few here will shed tears that Lincoln goes down and there aren't that many Pryor fans, the ugly truth is Arkansas has trended more and more red over the past 20 years and the tactics of Democrats trying to act like rushpublicans no longer works. It's time to rebuild and play to strengths rather than weekness.

The heartening thing about Halter's campaign was the energy it generated...but that all went out the window after he lost. That spirit needs to be recaptured for 2012 and beyond. It's to educate and party build...district by district. This is how the GOOP was able to gain power from within in many "purple" states.

7. Agreed!
"It's time to rebuild and play to strengths rather than weakness."

As many have said before, when given the opportunity to choose between a Republican and a Dem who acts like one, most people will choose the Republican.
