    Ron Paul has endorsed Joe Walsh for US Congress (R-IL 8th)

    http://www.libertypac.com/ron-paul-e...nts/joe-walsh/

    From Liberty PAC:

    "Prior to running for Congress, Joe had increased his focus on business development and venture capital. In 2005 he became Vice President of New Business Development for Advantage Futures, a trading firm at the Chicago Board of Trade. In 2007 he became a Director with Michigan Avenue Ventures, a Chicago-based boutique investment banking group specializing in early stage capital raises across industries

    Elected to the United States Congress in 2010, Joe has held true to his campaign pledges and refused his Congressional health benefits and pension package. When in Washington, Joe sleeps in his office and comes home every weekend to hold town halls and meet with constituents. No member of Congress has held more town halls this past year than Congressman Joe Walsh."

    I like this, but I don't think Joe is going to pull this one out. Chicago has a tax-cheat fiscal mismanager they desperately want in office, and they carved out a district just for her.

    oe Walsh pulling ahead of tax cheat Tammy Duckworth...

    This is not supposed to happen. House Speaker Michael Madigan drew this seat not just for a Democrat, but specifically for Duckworth. One of the reasons Duckworth lost to Peter Roskam in 2006 was that she didn’t live in the district, and was unwilling to move, because her house had been modified to accommodate her disability. The house is in the new 8th District. After that defeat, Gov. Rod Blagojevich and President Obama helped her build a resume. Blagojevich appointed Duckworth head of the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs. Obama named her Assistant Secretary for Veterans Affairs.

    With the help of her mentors, Sen. Dick Durbin and Rep. Rahm Emanuel, Duckworth has raised five times as much money as Walsh. Walsh also helped Duckworth raise money by saying she wasn’t a “true hero” because she bragged about her military service. Duckworth was given a prime-time speaking spot at the Democratic National Convention, where delegates were in tears as she talked her rescue from the wreckage of a Black Hawk helicopter.
    That apparently pisses the NBC writer off to no end:

    Walsh is a shameless, sexist, racist, creedist, colorist, national originist political bully who will do and say anything to win.

    Creedist? Colorist? National originist?
