DEL.ICIO.USA mulligan of a robo-call
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
David Keene, chairman of the American Conservative Union, called the house this morning to urge the family to vote for Republican incumbent Saxby Chambliss in the U.S. Senate race.
This was the second robo-call from Keene in a matter of days. Possibly because the first one urged a vote for “Saxby Chandler.”
This tells you something about the sudden competitiveness of the campaign, which caught many conservatives flat-footed — and perhaps a bit disorganized.

David Keene is a DC lobbyist (look it up), of course he supports Sissy Saxby.

Whatever his name is, he is still shameless. Will stoop to nothing to keep his job, at which he sucks, no matter what side of the fence you’re on.

David A. Keene (born May 20, 1945) is the current chairman of the American Conservative Union, a position which he has held since 1984. Additionally, he is the managing associate at the Carmen Group Lobbying, a lobbying firm based in Washington, D.C. In December 2007, Keene endorsed Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign.

At least a DC lobbyist has the excuse of not being represented by the man. Galloway can’t pronounce the senior senator from Georgia’s name correctly after the man has held elected office for 13 years. Or maybe Keane urged you to vote for Senator Shandler?
According to Jim Martin, there’s not a lobbyist in DC that Saxby doesn’t know.

The Republicans and John McCain will do anything to win. Racist.

Saxby voted to give $700 BILLION of OUR money to the crooks and criminals of Wall Street in an idiotic scheme that never could have helped the average American, even if it had not been aborted in the first week. This Robo guy from the “American Conservative Union” who is calling for him is not much of an American and surely is not a true conservative. Robo man must just be a Unionist!
