Moneybags Pryor Nixes Campaign Cash
Democratic Sen. Mark Pryor doesn’t need your dirty money.
Specifically, Pryor has told his fundraisers not to bother raising any more cash for his re-election campaign, because he ain’t gonna need it, according to ace reporter Seth Blomeley at the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. Arkansas Republicans, in all our glorious lameness, were unable to field a challenger to Pryor.
What’s Pryor going to do with the rest of his campaign nut? Based on the photo in today’s paper, he’s not spending it on rent, since the picture shows campaign manager Randy Massanelli sitting at a folding table in the Pryor campaign headquarters, in what looks to be a room without heat, running water or a roof. It looks like the room a serial killer would hold you in while he develops some ingenious plan for your demise.
Anyway, I presume what’s left of Pryor’s campaign cash will be squandered on a gambling jag across the border in the Mississippi casinos.
Forgoing fundraising is a bold move for Pryor, who still faces a challenge from Rebekah Kennedy of the Green Party. He’s raised $5.4 million; she’s raised $12,000. I sure hope he knows what he’s doing.

Since we’re talking about gambling, what’s Kennedy’s over under?

It looks like Randy Massanelli was put in a time out. What did he do to deserve that?

Where did you get that photo of Randy. That is hilarious.

After looking at that office,and imagining for fun that they had spent their last dollar decorating it…Pryor would still blow up Rebekah on Nov 4th.

Is she one of Jim L’s Green Party candidates that’s running against Ms. Blanche next?

In other news, the Craighead Co Democratic Party HQ is for some reason giving out Blanche Lincoln yard signs. But then again, when have NEA ever made sense?

Bobby Wayne – stop acting like you care about demo-socialists.

One would think that anti – Pryor folks would be rushing to vote for Rebekah. Then when the next cycle comes around she would be easier to beat. But maybe it is better to reelect somebody who belongs to the big club no matter what you think of them.
