Tammy Duckworth is kicking Joe Walsh's ass

I used the word 'kicking' because then I can mention she has prosthetic legs because she lost hers when she was fighting for the U.S. Military. Then I can mention the woman is a true hero and an inspiration to ALL Americans, but especially those wounded service peeps who are returning home with their lives and bodies in shreds. There is a life after their injury and, perhaps, great things if they set their minds to it.

Joe Walsh, on the other hand, would say she is not a hero and that he is just plain sick and tired of hearing about her injuries and that she is unworthy of public office because she lowers herself to talk about her service to the country.

Joe Walsh got paid over $100,000 last year to be a Congressman but he still hasn't paid his child support. Joe Walsh is gross.

So, Tammy Duckworth is kicking his ass in this poll and I just thought you all would like to see it. (The poll is from Credo Super Pac--my phone company. Unlike AT&T they give money to progressive causes like kicking the Tea Party's butt)

1. Oops--the poll is from Public Policy Polling

Credo, I think, paid for them. The Huffington Post has some more info on it too now:

4. Wish I could go over to Credo, but it's not available here. Really.

7. We've been happy with them. aT&T gave that big donation to the tea party

and that was that for us. I just couldn't give them any more of my money after that.

2. Dead-Beat Dad Going Down, Sir, Back to the Gutter Where He Was Whelped

3. +1

6. Sir! Your use of "whelped" caused me to snort coffee out my nose!

Thanks a lot.

8. It's the caps that do it for me. And that legalese. It's a real turn on.

9. That sounds a bit harsh

on gutters.

[DonRedwood]

5. We should start a pool

At whom is Walsh going to yell at next? Winner gets half the pot; the other half goes to Tammy's campaign.

11. I already sent her a (little) check but I'd be happy to give her all the winnings

I have a lot of respect for her. She could be out on disability but she wants to work.

10. Tammy should have had this district

two years ago,F-enn Rahmn screw her chances.

[DonRedwood]

14. I've never understood how he got elected in the first place

he's always been terrible! he was already behind on his child support... how in the heck did the guy get elected?

[longship]

12. Bottom line result.

Duckworth 50%
Walsh 41%
Undecided 9%

Ol' Joe is in deep shit. It isn't nice to malign a severely injured military veteran. According to Walsh, if she says anything about her service, she isn't a hero.

Well, the polled people rejected that by 52% to 10%!! (34% didn't care; 4% undecided).

Fuck you, Joe Walsh. Tammy Duckworth is going to be the next Congress critter in IL-08.

Go Tammy!

Here's where you go to help her:

13. Thanks for the link!

I hope some people use it!

16. If Joe Walsh wins....

....that entire district should be abolished. That guy is a fucking disgrace.

[DonRedwood]

17. People should elect their best and brightest

not their slick and slimiest.

18. Mother Jones Sep/Oct hit my (real) mailbox today. There's an excellent article and terrific

full page picture of the future Congresswoman Duckworth. It's not available on line yet, but here's a bit of it:

Unbreakable

An Iraqi rocket took her legs, but that didn't stop Tammy Duckworth. And now a tea party incumbent thinks he can break her stride?
