How old is this woman, twelve?
Last week she told the Tennessee Star that they need to quit being mean to her and now she's telling people to drop dead.

TN-5 Carpetbagger Candidate Morgan Ortagus to GOP-Controlled Tennessee General Assembly: Drop Dead!
In an op-ed published in the left wing Gannett-owned Tennessean, TN-5 candidate Morgan Ortagus effectively told the GOP-controlled Tennessee General Assembly to drop dead. She advocated against pending Tennessee General Assembly legislation that would establish a three-year residency requirement for candidates who seek to be on the ballot in primaries for the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate.

Blockhead move, both carpetbagging and the oped.
ReplyDeleteThat said, she's not hard on the eyes.
Just what you need a po lil white, rich and ugly Karen on board. She can put all the paint she wants on that horse face but underneath it's ugly man.
ReplyDeleteThis woman is looking like a straw candidate that does not know it, and that's the best kind of straw candidate possible.
ReplyDeleteGo get 'em Morgan!
ReplyDeleteTennessee may well pass that Law and enforce it for State run elections and races, but a Congresstional race falls under Federal Election Laws and Rules. It would not apply to a Federal Congresstional election.
It would be a Unconstitional law sure to be thrown out, when challenged except 'maybe" for State elections. Though I doubt it.
Besides that TN 5 hasn't elected a Republican in well over a hundred years.
So I wouldn't worry about a possible plant carpetbagger in Trashville any time soon!

You're awfully goddamned enthusiastic about having an outsider coming in to run Tennessee. Fuck that.
DeleteI'm not real sure I'd want anybody that was buddies with Ruth Bader Ginsburg to hold office anyway, no matter how long she's been here. Don't believe me?
"Ortagus married Jonathan Weinberger, an attorney, in 2013. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Ortagus's neighbor, presided over their wedding." SOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgan_Ortagus
Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia were best friends.....what's the point? Was he a plant also?
DeleteI just follow the facts. Tennesse cannot supercede Federal election law with a State law.
No rebublican, conservative, or rino is going to win TN 5 <period
So Fuck that indeed!

Yeah so, next time she'll run in my district while living in Oak Ridge. Again, it's a disconnection. She just moved here and doesn't know shit about what Tennesseans want or need.
DeleteLooking over my previous comment, I fail to see where I called her a plant. Don't put words in my mouth, sir.
The states can make residency requirements for local and state elections, but have not been able to for federal elections. The Constitution simply says that the officeholder has to be a resident at the time of election. This would fail with any lawsuit. I suspect that the TN Senate is sending a message as to who she can expect support from as much as anything. She's not the only carpetbagger. On the point of TN5, the lines have been redrawn considerably and that is what is attracting the attention of potential candidates, all R''s and almost 10 of them at this point. This is not the same district that Jim Cooper won in, it has been divided into 3 districts. For reference, (https://elections.uslegal.com/regulation-of-elections/)
DeleteEnjoy the blog, wirecutter, thanks for hosting.
It's an election year. The rules of common courtesy and civil behavior no longer apply.
ReplyDelete"Allow me to sing you a song of my party."
"They're being mean to me!" It might be racism, misogyny, but my guess is because you are a whiny little bitch of a leftist.
ReplyDeleteFWIW, the carpetbagger didn't actually tell anyone to drop dead, or anything like it. That was the article writer's "artistic interpretation" of her disagreement with this new (possibly unconstitutional) legislation. She's a damned carpetbagger, but she never said anything as juvenile as the headline/tagline indicates.
