Stephene Moore, wife of Democrat Congressman Dennis Moore, finally announced yesterday that she’ll try to keep the seat in the Kennedy, err, I mean, Moore family, this November. She’s already indicated she supports cap and trade, government run health care, and the TARP bailout. In other words, Moore of the same. (Gee, didn’t see that overused line coming at all, huh?)
My question to Mrs. Moore is who’s lying, her or her husband? Let’s remember why Dennis said he was leaving office.
Congressman Dennis Moore said Tuesday that his decision not to run for re-election is all about family and a promise he made to his wife.
Moore said they talked about him leaving office after five terms, but he will finally step down after serving six terms. He also put to rest the rumor that he was not running because of health reasons.
Leaving for family huh? I guess the family (and when I say family I mean Mrs. Moore) got pretty used to her Washington lifestyle and isn’t quite ready to give it up yet.
On a lighter note, it looks like Stephene’s off to a rocky online start.
KRA poll results for the third congressional district
Patricia Lightner narrowly won the KS-03 poll with 199 votes. Daniel Gilyeat was second with 193 votes, followed by John Rysavy and Nick Jordan.
The Kansas Republican Assembly endorses candidates in all statewide races from Kansas House to US Senate to Governor during their annual convention, set for June of 2010. Members from across the state will gather to voice their choice for a conservative, Republican candidate.
Previous KRA polls for KS-04 and KS-01 can be found here.
We’ll close the KS-03 poll Monday and post the results here. Take a last vote between now and then or take a look at our previous polls in KS-04 and KS-01.
KRA will have it’s annual convention in June 2010 where its members will vote on endorsements for the 2010 primaries in various statewide races.
Let the races begin!
The primary race in Kansas’ Third Congressional District just got a lot more crowded with Dennis Moore announcing he’s quitting rather than face Republican opposition.
You can vote for your choice for a Republican nominee in our poll on the right. We’ve tried to list any candidate running or somewhat seriously considering running.
We’ll announce the results at a later date.
A rather shocking video on the Kansas Watchdog news site shows a staffer of Congressman Dennis Moore showing his distaste for openness and public access to the Congressman’s office.
When Congressman Moore’s office was contacted, they stated that any citizen in Kansas has the right to request to not be filmed. While this is true, it certainly could have been done in a more tasteful manner, without the obvious contempt for those delivering petitions and letters to Rep. Moore’s office.
Further, a congressional staffer works for the public, and if they are uncomfortable with being filmed while working for the public, then maybe they should find a different line of work.
Congressman Moore and Nancy Pelosi’s Democrat majority said if they were elected, they would usher in a new era of open government. Perhaps Congressman Moore should educate his staff that they work for the people, and as part of the new “open” government, we the people have a right to know and see what happens in our office!
