DEL.ICIO.USSchaefer on Broun: ‘Democrats wouldn’t have voted for me’
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Nancy Schaefer, the North Georgia state senator who just jumped into the Republican race for the 10th District congressional seat, was on WGAU (1340AM) in Athens on Friday, talking to Tim Bryant.
Listen to the sound clip here.
Schaefer criticized Republican incumbent Paul Broun for relying on Democrats last summer to win the special election for the seat.
“Paul Broun had the votes from the Democrats to get him elected, and to raise his support. And I’m a conservative Republican, so I don’t think that would be happening to me,” she said.
Schaefer also criticized Broun’s vote to permit states to allow the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes.
House Majority Whip Barry Fleming (R-Harlem) is also in the GOP primary race. For details, see this article by the fellow on the left on Broun’s dilemma.

Huh? She doesn’t want Democrat votes in a district that has been historically Democrat? Clearly, she’s not the brightest bulb on the tree.

Please - the trash in that district are illiterate racists - the heart and soul of the GOP. The silly cow Schaefer is perfect for them.
