I guess this is the one election where they couldn't raise the dead...

Thank God for the Tea Party. Finally a true conservative.

The TSRA and NRA both endorsed Hopson over Clardy.

I'm hoping for equally stellar Democrat turnout in November.

yep, and those endorsements mean absolutely nothing to me in many cases. When most of these endorsements are based only on the legislative voting record and/or prior history of the candidates, it's difficult for "new blood" (like Tea Party type candidates) to get an endorsement from single issue organizations. I do look closely at those issues I hold near and dear, but I am NOT a single issue voter. Besides, Mr. Clardy has assured me in the last 6-7 months I've known him that he is a staunch 2A supporter.

I'm really glad to hear this report. I've always been leery of Hopson since he changed parties. I never voted for him and am excited about Mr. Clardy, especially now given your positive endorsement.

I'm pretty sure I saw Chuck himself today pulling up one of his own signs off Highway 69 in Jacksonville.
