As my readers know my Favorite Democrat was Rep. Heath Shuler of NC, the former Redskins and Saints QB, and conservative member of the House. I even nominated Rep. Shuler for President! But I began to sour on Shuler when he refused to vote to repeal Obamacare and he did not run for Governor of [...]

Cong. Heath Shuler, Sandy’s favorite Democratic officeholder, was recently defeated for minority leader by former Speaker and architect of the shellacking, Cong. Nancy Pelosi. Shuler did, however garner 43 votes to Pelosi’s 150. This is a major development; The Hill reported that there were major fissures within the Democratic Party: Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her [...]

It’s now official: Sandy’s favorite Democrat – Cong. Heath Shuler of NC is running against Cong. Nancy Pelosi for minority leader. Of course I’ll gladly root for Shuler; I admire him for this faith and his [mostly] conservative positions on the issue. But this is a lost cause worthy of Sen. Jefferson Smith. Shuler admits [...]

Sandy only wanted one D to win – Heath Shuler – and the early returns were not promising. Former NFL QB and Rep. Heath Shuler was behind in early results. But he pulled it out! Congrats! At least he’ll not be able to run for Speaker!

My favorite Democrat (officeholder), Rep. Heath Shuler, is moving toward a run for Speaker of the House. “If there is no viable alternative, I will be running for speaker of the House,” Shuler said during a radio debate with Republican Jeff Miller, the Asheville Citizen-Times reported. My first comment is: Let’s make sure he’s running [...]

Readers of this blog know well that Sandy’s favorite Democrat (at least among office holders) is Rep. Heath Shuler of North Carolina (blogger’s note and disclaimer – I am a native of the Tarheel State but I am from eastern NC); Shuler’s the former quarterback of the Redskins and Saints (another disclaimer – geaux Saints!)

This is a more complete response to Jim Smyers’ comment about Heath Shuler. (Thanks Jim for your comment!) I’m not sure if it will help or hurt Rep. Shuler to be Sandy’s favorite Democrat. One could say it’s a compliment. Another could say it’s the best of some bad choices. I have said it before. [...]
