Taxing Times

And anything else that ticks. PLUS: Introducing Dave ”MUDCAT” Saunders. ALSO: How holy Joe Lieberman? What was Daschle hiding? Is Ohio State vastly overrated? And much more.
p> ANOTHER VIRGINIA GENTLEMAN br> Re: The Washington Prowler’s Virginia Territory : /p>

Three things. One, thanks for the great plug. Two, my mama likes it when I get called by my real name: most of the stuff I’ve seen always calls me by my nickname “MUDCAT.” And three, the Democratic staffer (who for some reason or the other was afraid to be mentioned) forgot one piece of backwoods wisdom when he or she was talking about Georgia and South Carolina. That is, “You can’t hit ‘em if you don’t shoot at ‘em.” Like yourself, I watched the Georgia and South Carolina races, and neither one of us saw any rural strategies because there weren’t any. One thing I learned last year in my travels with Johnny’s PAC is that there’s not fifty cents’ difference in a “rural thinking voter” in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Georgia, or Virginia. My belief is they’re not Republicans —they’ve just been voting for Republicans. We shall see.

p>Once again, thanks for the kind words, but I would be less than honest if I didn’t tell you that it was the efforts of an unselfish rural team that did the job in Virginia, not me. If I can ever help you guys, let me know. Y’all do a good job. br> — Dave “MUDCAT” Saunders /p> p> REDUCED TO THIS br> Re: R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr.’s Dynamic Prophecy
