Thread: Richard Mourdock for US Senate (R-Indiana)

    Default Richard Mourdock for US Senate (R-Indiana)

    He's the state treasurer, he was on the Peter Schiff show and seemed pretty good. He can't possibly be worse than Dick Lugar.

    He's the only one who's running against him right now.

    He seems decent. Check him out: http://richardmourdock.com/

    Primary challenges are always a tough road, but Lugar is vulnerable and Mourdock is the only challenger so he's in decent shape. No issues page on his site, so we don't really know where he stands, but if he did Schiff's show that's a good sign (especially if he sounded good on Schiff's show). Do we know anything in the way of polling? It looks, from his web site, that he has enough support to do TV ads. I wonder if it's worth bringing DeMint's PAC into the fold for him, they're big on hitting liberal republican incumbents.

    For the issues you have to click on Lugar vs Mourdock:

    He seemed to emphasize the constitution, free-markets, and spending issues while on the show.
    He also had with him a zimbabwe 100 trillion note and spoke of a coming financial collapse / high inflation if we don't get our act together.

    Seems better than 95% of the people currently in the senate anyway.

    He's the only challenger so far and has been endorsed by a lot of tea party and other conservative groups. I think he stands a pretty good chance and could be a great ally to the movement IMO. Definitely someone who we could work with.

    He has a huge billboard sign on 65. It's kind of bland.

    Gun Owners of America and National Association for Gun Rights has endorsed him, so that's a good sign. Those two have given Ron Paul the highest ratings.

    Forbes and Cain have also endorsed him,

    If I'm not mistaken, DeMint is pimping for him as well. I think....
