One Of These Things Is Not Like The Other
By Kleinheider Posted on August 7, 2008 at 6:50 amSouthern Appalachian Democrat Mike Padgett in a final press release before the polls open:
“Tennesseans are not stupid, and they are beginning to see that Senator Alexander is not just a harmless guy in a plaid shirt,” Padgett said. “He has been a rubber-stamp for just about every mistake the Bush-Cheney Administration has made.
“Well, I intend to put an end to the ABC Administration – that’s Alexander-Bush-Cheney.
“With Barack Obama at the helm and folks like me and Jim Webb and Heath Shuler in Congress, we will turn this thing around and make America first again.”
