When he went third party for signatures to appear on the ballot, he chose to call that line, the "Tea Party" line.conservative generationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614578478747561732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-42259919627274866022011-04-07T07:13:13.886-04:002011-04-07T07:13:13.886-04:00I thought Davis was on an independent line - not a...I thought Davis was on an independent line - not a 'Tea Party' designation. Where has this come from? He has touted himself as pro-business yet he has democrat roots (I live in the 26th district vacated by the shamed Chris Lee).<br /><br />I too am aware of his quote regarding busing of inner city folk to the country for work and don't really see the seriousness of his running...he has always claimed that he is self-financed. He needed to provide 12,000 petitioned signatures to qualify.<br /><br />Maybe he self-designated as a Tea Party candidate...I agree with Rus Thompson. The Tea Party is a movement, moreso, than a 'party'. The only people that end up voting for Jack Davis are likely liberals anyways so I don't see the problem.Toad Trendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03113877205525601966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-49856500176562106432011-04-07T06:06:40.096-04:002011-04-07T06:06:40.096-04:00The fact remains that Mr. Davis is far more libera...The fact remains that Mr. Davis is far more liberal then he would like you to believe.<br /><br />He is running on the Tea Party line because no other party would have him.<br /><br />Do you think that either major party would be interested in a self-financed candidate if his views and public positions were more mainstream?<br /><br />He is a publicity hound who only wants the illusion of power the position provides.<br /><br />There is also serious concern that when reapportionment comes in 2012, this district will be eliminated.<br /><br />Defend him if you want, but he has little to no chance. Not because he's "Tea Party", but because there are better candidates for the Republican and Democrat parties.

Put them on buses, take them out there [to the farms] and pay them a decent wage; they will work."<br /><br />A leftists friend complained about it at the time and I told her I thought it was pretty much like Midnight Basketball. If the GOP had suggested putting basketballs in the hands of inner city black kids to keep them from selling crack and shooting each other she would have had a fit, but since it was a Democrat project it was fine. If a loyal leftists would have suggested that the government provide subsidized transportation to get our most unemployed demographic to where jobs are available, and force employees to pay them competitively by denying access to low wage illegal employees, she and the legacy media would have thought it was a splendid plan.<br /><br />Jack Davis may be a complete jerk, but I don't think that his suggestion that it would be beneficial for the government to a) reduce the importation of low wage immigrant labor and b) expedite access for people with no jobs, no skills and no prospects to available work is evidence that he is.&ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18030267191316017843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-11414464330977708762011-04-06T17:55:17.791-04:002011-04-06T17:55:17.791-04:00I am from the Buffalo area.
