[...] of Ricky Gill. Ricky Gill is a 24-year-old law school student (turns 25 by the election time). He has the backing of the California Republican Party, the California College Republicans, Jeb Bush, Eric Cantor, etc. [...]

I just love the FEC online database — I learn soooooo much about this “Stockton shoot-out” aka the new 9th CD 2012 election!

For the quarter just ended (9/30/11), Ricky Gill raised an eye-popping $283,416 — and none of that was PAC money. He has cash on hand of $647,878.

Meanwhile, McNerdly has barely raised $216,142 in the same time period — and $77,000 of THAT was PAC money, not private donations. He has only $613,711 in cash on hand.

Run, Ricky, run!

Re #6

“McNerney is one of the most extreme leftists in Congress.” “He is supported by the Communist-affiliated SEIU.”

This is perhaps the most ridiculous comment I have ever seen here. Got some proof on SEIU? I suppose the veteran’s groups who supported McNerney in the last election are Communist-affilitated and Marxist too.

What are you, Chairman of the John Birch Society?

McNerney is one of the most extreme leftists in Congress. He is supported largely by the Communist-affiliated SEIU. McNerney is a co-conspirator with Obama, Pelosi, Reid, etc. in the deliberate destruction of America’s economy.

If we don’t remove this uber Marxist McNerney, we are in even bigger trouble than we’re in now.

When will the democrats realize this?

Readers:
I’m sure there will be more entering the race, against Gill the republican, as well as Mc Nerney the democrat.

That “extremist uber wackjob” you talk about, qualified for the ballot and did get some real votes. You should try it sometime?

Gill seems like one of those cocky guys who want to go directly from student body president to congressman. Doesn’t this guy need some “life experience” first? Shouldn’t he get a real job and get some private sector experience, to be specific, first? We don’t need any more career politicians at any age. At least McNerney is a real person with a family who has held real jobs in the private sector.

“Lars54″ — If you like him so much you could learn to spell his name correctly — it’s McNerney, not McNerny — but for those of us who know him well, it’s “McNerdly” and he is tost (no need to waste an “a”) when Ricky Gill gets this unemployed wind consultant hack to summon enough courage to stand side-by-side with Gill in a debate.

Dude, do you NOT read election results? McNerdly got only 47% of the vote last time, and Harmer did not win because there was some extremist uber-wackjob that sucked up 5% of the vote that should have gone to Harmer.

There will be no voter suppression tactics to save McNerdly’s @$$ this time around (as in 2006 and 2008) — he has to run on his record and he is T-O-S-T.

I don’t believe Republicans will target this district, they threw a lot of money at McNerny last time – they had a good candidate too, all to no avail. The fact is McNerny has done a pretty good job as Congressman, he’s a good guy, people can see that so they keep voting him in. When a guy does good work and he’s a decent person – which sums up McNerny in a nutshell, all the money and all the political consultants in the world aren’t going to matter. Voter’s just seems to like McNerny, bottom line.
