Oconee County, GA Politics

There were nearly 200 advance voters that came into the tiny Oconee County Board of Registration and Elections building immediately south of the Oconee County Courthouse in Watkinsville by 1:30 pm yesterday. I would well imagine that all of them were writing in "Charles Darwin" against Paul Broun for Congress like I did, but I would be wrong in that assumption. I would also like to think they were all voting for Barack Obama for President, but considering almost every one of my Morgan Manor Estates neighbors save the Gwinns, Knights and a few others have Willard "Mitt" Romney signs in their yards, I would think that would be a mistake as well. If you would like an "Obama Y'all" campaign sign for your yard, you have a very small window to which you can get one - and I would suggest you do so right now - at either 706-769-1131 or 706-372-1062 and we are asking a $5.00 donation per sign.

Part of it's the competitive person in me -- I know Mitt Romney's been practicing for this moment for months, so I can't wait to cheer our guy on. But most of all, I love getting together with my friends and fellow supporters to get energized for the last big push before November 6th. Something tells me you might be a debate fan, too. If you are, you should know that one of your neighbors in Athens is holding a watch party for the first debate on Wednesday, October 3rd. You should drop by and watch. Here are the detail...

Romney counters notion he bullied gay classmates

I have never enjoyed receiving robo-calls. I did get former Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond and the newly single and former Lieutenant Governor nominee Carol Porter to record some for me in my State Legislature campaign. I doubt whether Barbara Bush is going to convince many Democratic voters in Oconee County to crossover and vote for Mitt, but I think that would do the worst for Newt Gingrich. I strongly encourage all voters to go to the polls tomorrow to support whomever they want in the Georgia Presidential Primary and remind you that you can choose a Democratic ballot and support Presidenti Barack Obama if the choices on the Republic side have no appeal. One side of me would think that Newt winning Georgia will prolong the Republican nomination process a few more weeks. Mitt won five in a row counting Washington. I am fairly certain he will have more delegates Wednesday morning. Oh yes, there is a Ron Paul rally at the Georgia Theatre 5:00 pm this Monday afternoon and there are...
