Posted at 1:05pm on Jul. 3, 2008 A Belief In Small Government is "Strange and Outlandish"

By Erick

In Georgia's 10th Congressional District, Paul Broun is being challenged in the Republican Primary by State Representative Barry "The Lemming" Fleming.

They had a debate last night.

As you all know, Paul Broun is a small government conservative's conservative. The man takes no prisoners in his quest for limiting government. He has voted against federal medical marijuana laws on the principle of federalism, against federal housing programs on the principle of smaller government, and against funding Planned Parenthood on the principle of life.

Paul Broun is to the House of Representatives what Tom Coburn is to the Senate: a take no prisoners, conservative bad ass.

Paul Broun is a class act. Unfortunately, because Broun believes small government is a hill to die on, his challenger, Barry Fleming, is going after him.

In what I think is a first for a Republican candidate anywhere, Barry Fleming, a Republican, has called Congressman Paul Broun's conservative political philosophy "strange and outlandish."

And this guy wants to replace Paul Broun as the Republican standard bearing in the 10th Congressional District.

We should make sure that does not happen.

Posted at 9:12am on May 22, 2008 Have you contributed to Paul Broun yet?

By Erick

Here's the deal: When we first declared our site support for Congressman Paul Broun, we weren't on Slatecard.

We are now.

Unfortunately it looks like we have contributed nothing to Congressman Broun.

We need to improve that situation.

Let's review. Congressman Broun won a special election to replace Charlie Norwood. Since Congressman Broun went into Congress he has proven himself to be exactly what conservatives should hope for.

Right now, the establishment GOP is running a candidate against Congressman Broun in the GOP primary. The district is safely Republican, but we cannot tolerate a squishy establishment Republican replacing Congressman Broun.

Congressman Broun needs our help. He actually does need our money.

Like Sean Parnell in Alaska and Pete Olson in Texas and Tom Rooney in Florida and Chris Hackett in Pennsylvania, Paul Broun is the type of Republican we need in Washington.

I'm in for $50.00. How much are you in for?

Posted at 9:04am on Jul. 18, 2007 Upset in GA-10? Broun ahead of Whitehead

Recount coming?

By krempasky

As noted by Dave Freddoso over at NRO, what was expected to be a bit of a walk for Jim Whitehead hasn't turned out that way. As the clear winner of the special election to replace Charlie Norwood - Whitehead seems to be trailing Dr. Paul Broun by almost 400 votes out of with 46k-ish cast 98% of the precincts reporting.

Any of the RS Georgia contingent care to share the recount rules?
