Press-Register – Governor: Hurricane shelters reserved for Alabama residents

As usual, CC has no idea what he’s talking about. But hey, any chance to bash Riley, right?
hey, CC, sorry about the outcome of that Senate District 7 race. Know all you casino-types were counting on winning that one. Too bad.
The Sleeper story of the day has to be the Press Register’s story about the fissures and lapses in the Mobile Democratic organization.
If not handled carefully, 2010 turn out could be affected.
Now that the Jefferson County Commission is making cuts lets see if our legislature can agree on anything and help them out.
Walt, i’s obvious you’ve never even been to Mobile, much less worked there. The County party has always been a joke.
#3…we’ve picked up support in another area…you’ll find out later…
btw #3 ..i think the free bbq is what got us…lolol
Whofa King, guess I never picked up Barq’s bottles because I could get a nickel for them vs three cents for coke, ate Gordon’s chips or thought the DIP was anything but a four lane drag strip.
While Mobile democrats have been disorganized, its rare for it to hit the state wide papers. With state wide elections coming up, mishandling the situation will lead to some interesting primaries and folks staying home during the general election.
