1. Oh, yeah. It's true. Teachers hate him. Medicaid/care recipients hate..

him.

Funny thing is, many teachers voted for him as did many poor Mississippians.

The GREAT thing is, though, that in recent local elections, Dems triumphed in the majority of elections. :woohoo:

We're not stupid down here. :D

[MrScorpio]

2. From what I've observed...

They're much too high

Mississipians are not very happy with Haley.

If he gets another turn at office, he will have stolen the statehouse.

3. The Alabama gov is about the same

look at Bob Taft in Ohio! 19% approve 74% disapprove

so my question is: Will this translate into a democratic governor next time or will the people come to believe a more conservative fundie wacko will solve the problem?

12. voting machines

[whistle]

4. Wait until after tropical storm Arleen passes through Mississippi

...his disapproval rating ought to increase a couple of more points

[BamaLefty]

6. Arlene is nothing.

I'm basically sitting in the eye and nothing is happening.

No photo ops for Haley.

[whistle]

7. Really, it died right out eh....

...local weather channels here in Orlando making a big deal of the storm earlier as though they had something to do with it missing Central Florida.

[BamaLefty]

8. That's weathermen for you....

they nearly pee their pants with terror at the sight of a cloud. :eyes:

[whistle]

9. Well, we did have three major category 4 hurricanes that swept..

...across Central Florida between August 15 and Sept 30 last year. When I walked outside early this morning and saw how bleak and gray the sky was, I admit I had flash-backs.

[BamaLefty]

10. Sheesh...

yeah I'm well aware of that. I was hit hard by Ivan.

[indepat]

5. The good people of Mississippi, like the people of the USA, get the

government they so richly deserve with all the trimmings.

[merh]

11. Babar the elephant is not a prince in this state!

We dislike him and those figures are much too kind.

They tried a local poll regarding election devices and had they little minions selecting touch screens, but it was posted at DU and the touch screens lost to paper ballots. They would have used that poll to convince circuit clerks and the SOS that the public wanted a change!
Thank god DUers didn't let us down. :patriot:
