Texas Democrat Running Away from Obama and Pelosi in New Ad – Video

Here is video of a new ad by Democrat Rep. Chet Edwards, who is trying to hang onto his Texas CD-17 seat by running away from President Obama and Nancy Pelosi. This ad is a striking example of how Democrats are trying to pass themselves off as conservatives to stave off defeat in November.

Republicans must keep hammering home the fact that a vote for ANY Democrat IS a vote for the radical Obama-Pelosi-Reid agenda. If returned to Washington, Dems like Edwards will enable them to continue their radical work.

Edwards is going to lose.

Good riddance.

[mmercier]

a rat running away from what 111 has done is like fleeing the scene of a homicide.

[Past Your Eyes]

We have one right here in NH doing the same thing. (Congressman Hodes, now running for Judd Gregg’s open senate seat.) You should see the ad he’s running. It’s laughable.

Anyone have any insight into polling data between Flores & Edwards?

[PoloSec]

So what about his opponent, who is he/she, whats the conservative position on the same issues in the ad.

[ConservativeDude]

I think Flores is polling very strong, but I don’t know particulars. He is an exceptional candidate.

And Edwards is a swine. Perfect environment this time.

[ConservativeDude]

Real Clear Politics puts TX 17 into “leans GOP” category, but with no elaboration. Perhaps it’s just the general trend this time is too strong. That, together with Flores’ very credible candidacy just makes this a no-brainer.

If Chet somehow managed to get re elected the very first vote he would cast in the new congress would be for Nancy Pelosi as speaker!

[normy]

There is a great ad by with Phil Graham ripping Edwards and detailing his votes. Very damning.

[Fresh Wind]

All these Pelosiphobes will be right back to kissing her feet once they win their elections. That is, IF they win.

[Bassfire]

Ad won’t work. We remember less than 2 yrs. ago he was mentioned as a Vice President pick for Obama. He wouldn’t of been in the running if he was such a “moderate” and voted “his way” and not the “Pelosi way”. She provided cover for him to vote against the dems agenda. He’s been in Congress for 20 yrs. or more, time to dump Chet and elect Flores.

I wonder how long they thought about giving their vote to obamacare while the voice of the people where screaming “h$ll no!” I just told a dem friend of mine that I can't be believe he's a marxist. I explained about the russians running to the dem party and taking over. He called me an @ss and walked away. I don't need friends like that.
