It's War in Iowa

Phone/email campaign highlights Giuliani's shady inner circle and includes mentions of "pedophile priest" accusations.

Rudy Giuliani's dirty laundry is being aired all over Iowa in a slew of phone calls and e-mails to potential voters.

The messages mention the indictment of Giuliani's ex-business pal and police chief Bernie Kerik and accusations that childhood friend Msgr. Alan Placa covered up for pedophile priests.

The calls about Kerik were made by a pro-Mike Huckabee group called TrustHuckabee.com. It was unclear who circulated the e-mail about Placa, who works for Giuliani's consulting firm.

Push Pollers for Huckabee!

Mike Huckabee boasts about running an above-the-mud campaign that does not smear his GOP rivals, but a group founded by some of his supporters appears to be doing just that.

The group, Common Sense Issues, launched a series of automated calls to Iowa Republican voters Sunday. The calls offer negative information about Huckabee's rivals and positive information about the former Arkansas governor.

The group's executive director, Patrick Davis, dubbed the calls "personalized educational artificial intelligence," and admitted they are designed to promote Huckabee.

Oh. Nevermind. It's not a push poll. It's a "personalized educational artificial intelligence." Of course.

The Huskster strikes again. But does he understand he's taking on the Giuliani crime family?

So the Christian candidate in Iowa is taking pot shots at the Mormon and Catholic that are running (intimating that they aren’t really Christians in that fundie code word sort of way) while he jokes and smiles to their faces. He must be "really feeling good about life" today just like that lying, cheating Spunky.

I hope everyone writing in the Blog and in The Party Builder is telling everyone they know about the evil GOP and how they have obstructed everything the Democrats do.

They sneeked around when they were the majority in the House and Senate and passed bills at like four AM.
What an evil bunch of elected officials.
I hope the people have learned a lesson. The Gop will promise the moon and do nothing except bully other Nations. Do you remember the great things Bush promised and all he did was fight an unessary War and made the upper wealthy people more wealthy and tear down our middleClass to an historic low. Clintons increased the middleClass to an all time high.

What a difference a group of Democrats make that ask what they can do for the people instead of like the GOP, what can the people do for me?
