(OK, so 'newsing' isn't really a word. It rhymes, so cut me some slack. :)) )
Bloggers movin' on up...
...former Congressman, current columnist, and fellow blogger Sam Coppersmith at Liberal Desert has found gainful, if temporary employment. Of course, an opportunity for the post-transition period could come up, too.
From KVOA.com: Harry Mitchell "appointed former Arizona Congressman Sam Coppersmith to help lead his Congressional transition team."
...As has been covered elsewhere (including here), former JD opponent and another fellow blogger, Elizabeth Rogers won her race for the Kyrene JP job.
Other news of the Mitchell upset of Hayworth...
...Joanie Flatt, via AZ Congress Watch (thanks Stacy!), notes that "while J.D. won’t concede that Harry Mitchell is the Congressman-elect from CD5, apparently the Clerk of the House of Representatives sees it differently. "
Harry has to be in D.C. on Sunday for newbie orientation. Yessss!!!!
...Rush Limbaugh calls Harry a "parrot" on his radio show (it's about 2/3 of the way down the page).
Congrats to Harry for hitting the big-time. He's just been dissed by the one guy in the country who's a bigger blowhard than JD.
And a not-so-random musing...
...Does anybody else wonder if JD, when he goes looking for someone to blame for his electoral fall from grace, is going to blame the advisor who told him to disavow Russell Pearce after the "National Alliance" email? That JD is going to believe in the deepest recesses of his heart that CD5 would have re-elected him if he was just a little more extreme?
When JD finally does an honest evaluation of his campaign (if he ever does), to try to understand where to place the blame, he needs to look into a mirror before he starts pointing fingers.
...More updates as news becomes available.
Later!!
