9. It was an expensive victory.

Sadly it was born from another situation of ramming a chosen one down the convention's throat previously. The base had had enough.

Fortunately Cox is out but Shuette got in during the tea-baggers' sweep in '10.

While '12's a big year, locally I am thinking '14. Due to various reasons we won't be spending huge money on any campaigns this year. I'm am using the excitement that always comes with a Presidential election to build a war chest for '14.

Shuette is rapidly becoming a special project of mine and don't get me started on Snyder, Bolger and the rest of those evil creatures.
