Frost says Sessions should denounce immigration ads

The commercial is being pretty truthful IMHO.

It is the truth. But it will be smeared as a devious confabulation of Nazis, white supremacists and labor unions.

Is Marvin Frost in a district where he can be beat, or is he just another white democrat liberal who sits in a seat in a minority district that was supposed to have a minorit rep?

[cyborg]

I think Sessions did the right thing by saying he had no idea about this commercial or these groups sponsoring it. I don't think he should at all apologize for his positions on the illegal alien issue that I assume are similar to what's in this ad.

[primeval patriot]

Good points.

[montag813]

The advertisements...stating that Mr. Frost supports legislation that would allow immigrants to crowd schools, drive down worker wages and deplete the job pool.

He is. They will. The ads pass the fact-check test.

The odds are fairly high that Frost will lose. He was DeLayed in the redistricting. Against a more skillful and entrenced Pubbie than Sessions, Frost would have hung it up, and joined a lobbying firm. As it is, he is hanging by his fingernails, and probably will end up hanging period as he twists, slowly, slowly, in the wind. He needs a Kerry victory, and a significant generic Dem swing, to survive. Indeed, I would say the odds are very low that Frost will win, absent a Dem takeover in the House. It is THAT tough for him.

LOL, white democrat liberal. That's him. He's been re-elected for twenty plus years. Like a bad rash he keeps coming back.

I think his congressional district has been re-districted and I'm not sure of the demographics.

[primeval patriot]

Here's to slowly twisting in the wind.

Cheers!

It's plain as day despite the efforts of The Dallas Morning Newsto Nazify the ads message.

Frost's and Sessions' old districts have been cut and merged in the last round of redistricting. The breakdown is 51% Republican and 49% RAT. Everything on paper says Sessions should win the race but it is going to be a tough fight. We are having to start early and make sure complacency about voting doesn't set in in the district with the Presidential race being a no contest.

Frost is fighting for his life and his supporters are dangerous people. If they can manage to bus enough people into the district and dig up enough dead bodies they just might pull it out.

[judgeandjury]

Mr. Frost said he doesn't think Mr. Sessions is a racist.

And I don't think that Mr. Frost is a racist. I'm not 100% convinced that he's not a racist, but I'm pretty sure that he's not.

Frost needs to shut up along with the rest of the RATS. To accuse Rep Sessions of white supremacy is ludicrous and disgusting.

More like a sign of sheer and utter desperation!!
