Greenberg Makes Formal Senate Announcement
Arkansas GOP Rep. Dan Greenberg (an Arkansas Project contributor) will make his candidacy for the state Senate seat in District 22 official this evening (Thursday) with a formal announcement on the Saline County Courthouse lawn in Benton at 6 p.m. Come one, come all!Greenberg will face former Rep. Jeremy Hutchinson in a primary race that will be closely and intensely watched by Dan and Jeremy, while the rest of us point and laugh derisively at their general haplessness.
(FULL DISCLOSURE: I sent Greenberg a $50 campaign donation, but only because I wanted the state tax credit for a political contribution.)

Dan is probably going to be the better candidate. He is better on the issues and has a better fundraising base. He is also a current office holder, and has done a great job as a State Rep.
Jeremy is going to wage the same campaign he waged against Dan for the House way back when (decade ago?).
Jeremy is a nice guy. But a class action tort lawyer isn’t going to be able to campaign, credibly, as a conservative. Hope Jeremy sticks around after the loss, tho, because Dan will need his support in the General next fall against a tough D with a Saline County base.

Could you guys get a picture of Dan and Jeremy taken in the last couple of years? Please…
November 5th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
Hey, I like Dan too.But a better fundraising base? Unless, by a “better fundraising base” you mean Dan personally giving to his own campaign. By any other standard, your statement is patently absurd. (Take a glance at the latest campaign contribution report over at the Sec. of State’s website. You’ll see what I mean).

No, Carol, I’m afraid you must be mistaken. Those pictures of Dan and Jeremy are the most current that are available anywhere, I believe.

I dislike both of these men. In fact, if I had my druthers, I druther be buggered by a carnie than to be in the same room with either of them.

That Fourche River Rex is quite a card. He sounds as if he helped write the Trevor Drown play book.

By the way FRR, were you desiring to be buggered by a carny or a canary? Methinks you might rather choose the canary. However, perchance your years at the Perry County Fair gave you a predilection towards a more intense form of buggery. Just what were the prizes at the dart throwing booth anyway?

Cameron,
No, I didn’t help Tevor Drown. But Lord I wish I had. Just for the chance to view the playbook in person, I think, would be akin to staring upon the illuminated pages of the Book of Kells.
I never did work the dart throwing both, but I did bark for the Yak woman (pop culture reference).
Cameron it seems I offended you by mocking Dan and Jeremy. Believe me, I would mock them to their face just the same.

Hutchinson = Effective

Greenberg = Principled
November 11th, 2009 at 7:19 am
Ah yes, FRR, the Book of Kells. If only more in this world could understand the reference to these “illuminated pages,” we might not be in the state we find ourselves in today. I took no offense at your mocking of Sirs Dan and Jeremy. I have often found myself in the exact same practice, and indeed, both in writing and to their faces. I didn’t do it often though since they provide so much material it is really no challenge and the practice becomes quite boring in short order.
By the way wasn’t the Yak woman actually from Aplin, or lives there now, or something to that effect?
November 11th, 2009 at 12:01 pm
That yak woman is ugly as sin, but a sweet gal, and a hell of a good cook.
November 12th, 2009 at 10:57 am
As far as I know, the Yak woman never lived in Aplin. But Will Human did and he was a sight to see.
Bubba, it is almost time to break out the DVD. We always watch it on Thanksgiving day. One of the most quotable (sp?) movies ever!

[...] As a State Senate candidate, I’ve recently been the subject of a couple of “Internet polls,” in which website visitors are asked to vote for rival candidates. Even to discuss an Internet poll probably grants it too much importance, because there is no relation between actual voter behavior and an Internet poll. [...]
