Apperently Roby may be in some trouble according to Fox. I know Trump has thrown his support behind her, but she's a frickin snake in the grass and has turned on him before and said she didn't regret it yesterday.

I will be voting for Bobby Bright Tuesday. Any others on here in this district voting Tuesday?

Vote for the Repub or don't vote. The dems will not help Trump on anything. At least a R might help him sometimes.
Ya'll gave our country no help by electing that Dem Senator.
if you vote for a Dem in any state you are voting for the following:
Maxine Water
Upchuck Schumer
Nancy Pelosi
HRC
nobama
Do you really want to support them? That's what a vote for a demo equals. Keep things in perspective.

That might explain why I don't see or hear anything about Roby.

It's a Republican runoff. Bright is a former blue dog Dem who used to have this this district until Roby defeated him. I have never liked Roby tbh. I feel comfortable with Bright supporting Trump's agenda.

Yep, I know other people who are voting for Bright. She's pissed people off about her past comments about Trump and how she couldn't vote for him.

One has voted 93% conservative during their time in Congress.


One voted 70% liberal during their time in Congress.


Facts matter.

True, when he was a Dem several years ago. He said he actually voted for Trump. Martha Roby didn't

Are you really so pussified you will be voting against someone who voted with Trump 98% of the time just because she as a woman was legitimately outraged over the pussy comments?

She's a good Congresswoman and deserves reelection.

Bobby Bright voted to make Nancy Pelosi speaker in 2009.

And you're voting for that against someone who's supported Trump 98% of the time in actual votes in Congress.

But please tell us more snowflake.

Would you still trust someone like Lindsey Graham saying he voted for Trump in the election?

Bobby Bright voted to make Nancy Pelosi speaker.

Martha Roby didn't


And has voted with him 98% of the time in Congress the past two years.

Yeah, he voted Democrat since he was a Democrat..... At one time.

But when he was in office, the Democrat party wasn't even what it is today. Things have changed drastically in just that short period of time. Heck, we have videos of Schumer, etc, supporting the end of illegal immigration around that time Bright was in office.

Are we supposed to just shun people who once voted Dem and have left the party recently?

You know, there is a such thing as tossing a person a coat. He was a blue dog Dem and I'm willing to toss him a coat. Martha Roby sucks.

I’ll tell you guys.
She may look dumb,
But that’s just a disguise.
She’s a mastermind
in the ways of espionage.

Yes.

Getting their votes to win elections is one thing but actually voting for them for public office is another thing entirely. I don't trust them to represent me accordingly in line with my conservative beliefs and never will.

Martha Roby has a proven record of conservatism and Donald Trump agrees with me, not you.

Enough idiots here in Louisiana said the same thing about JBE for Governor given how he was campaigning as a blue dog democrat and he's turned out to be nothing more than a classic tax and spend liberal.

Ironically, Trump was a Democrat when Bright assumed office . I guess we should shun Trump

Heck, my dad is a pretty conservative man and voted for Bright both times as a Dem (and is going to again this time). Knowing how my dad is, I feel very comfortable voting Bright.

The Democratic party has gone off the wall crazy since Bright was last in office. I'm willing to accept Demfugees.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Why do you think I opposed Trump during the primaries?

The man had no record to prove his conservatism and had a history of progressive sounding like statements and that's why I did not support him.

The only reason I voted for him in the general election was that he was running against Hillary Clinton and he promised to appoint an originalist to SCOTUS.

So you trust your dad over Trump who I concede right now has very good political instincts and wouldn't have endorsed Roby if he didn't trust her?

Not for public office. You can't trust them for that.

Bobby Bright was a shitty mayor and a shitty congressman. He voted for Obama. He voted for Pelosi as speaker of the house. Suddenly he has changed? BS.
