Lincoln Davis (DINO-TN) To Run for Governor
This is too funny. "Pro War Democrat" Lincoln Davis, the Congressman who represents the Republican wing of the Tennessee Democratic Party, wants to be your Governor in 2010. Hahahahaha.
The Bush Dog Democrat's record:
Lincoln Davis earned a score of 0 percent from NARAL (2006).
National Right to Life Committee: 100 percent in 2005-2006.
Human Rights Campaign: 0 percent in 2006.
NAACP: 69 percent in 2006 and 57 percent in 2005.
Americans United for the Separation of Church and State: 8 percent in 2006.
American Civil Liberties Union: 32 percent in 2006.
Family Research Council: 100 percent in 2006.
American Family Association 100 percent in 2005-2006.
Rep. Davis voted YES on a Constitutional Amendment that would have banned same-sex marriage. The pro war and anti stem cell research Democrat voted YES on making the PATRIOT Act permanent.
We could do better with a Republican. That reminds me, Harold Ford wants to be Governor too, but we already knew that.
The Tennessean:
"'I’ve made up my mind to run for governor,' said Davis, who served as Ford’s campaign chairman during his unsuccessful 2006 Senate bid against Republican Bob Corker. 'I don’t think (Ford) is going to run because Lincoln Davis is going to run. I would imagine that if I’m in the race, he’ll step aside.'"
"But an adviser to Ford and the head of the Tennessee Democratic Party confirmed that Ford is 'seriously considering' a run to succeed Gov. Phil Bredesen in 2010. Bredesen cannot run for a third term. 'My understanding is that he’s very interested in looking at it,' said Gray Sasser, chairman of the state Democratic Party." [via Left of the Dial]
