Rat Holcomb finding new cheese?

DEFUND it you POS…and PAY UP. YOU DID BUILD THIS…

http://www.usdebtclock.org

This (the executive branch and CONgre$$) is the most evil government in the history of the republic, after what has been revealed to us about Planned Pre-Meditated Pulling Apart Babies for Profit. We are FORCED to pay for these deceivers…this death cult.

Plunder and death…the calling cards of criminals, socialists, totalitarians and satanists.

ZERO REPRESENTATION on fundamental aspects of life, liberty and the slaughter of the innocent.

I’m told this man has always been prolife. Sometimes you have to fight from inside the belly of the beast, no?

It’s been crystal clear for some time that true pro-lifers have no place in the democrat party, not even in the South.

The recent PP revelation only further crystallizes the matter. I suppose Holcomb will be seen by many as an opportunist, but in fact he has been principled on this issue all along. Well, with both the Democrat and Republican parties hijacked by ideologues and self-empowering career politicians, it is no wonder the Tea Party has arisen and gained strength.

Because the local Republican Party in Eastern AR (especially SE AR) was weak to non-existent until the last few years.

Well, he could've been the trailblazer, and brought the republican party to the area. Regardless, how did he vote throughout the years he was a democrat? That's more telling than anything else.

He wouldn’t have been a trailblazer, he simply would’ve lost running as a Republican, lucky to get 25-40% of the vote. Outside of urban districts with a population of Blacks and White leftists, SE AR is where virtually all of the remaining Democrats in the legislature hail from (it’s a poor backwater with a large Black population).

By 2020, those remaining rural White majority districts (such as the one this gentleman represents) will be electing Republicans at the legislative level (they’ve already gone GOP at the Presidential, Congressional and top Statewide offices level).

I don’t know the man’s voting record, presumably it’s been typical of a lot of the rural White Democrats (centrist). He’s only been in the legislature since Jan 2013 (there’s a three-term limit, so he can only run again one more time in the House).

“....Hope to see more “defections,” as it were.”

Absolutely! And that goes for the rank and file registered Dems as well.
