The unvarnished truth of what the head of the AFL-CIO, President Richard Trumka, believes they should do.
Control private corporations.
Greedy much there, Trumka?

Well, it was quite a roller coaster ride.
But it appears it wasn’t meant to be, in my case, at this time.
We shall see what the future brings.
I hope that, come the General Election Day, we get the person(s) that will do what we need to have done. And that is to put our country back on the solid ground we need rather than the spending spree that has been taking place.
To all who have been kind enough to vote for me, thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was deeply appreciated.
Have a Good Day.
Well, today’s the day.
No matter how this turns out (for me) I wish you to know this has been an extraordinary challenge.
I have met a lot of fine people, and many of my competitors I put in that same category. Stephens Dempsey, Neil Cohen, Corrogan Vaughn and James Rutledge, to name but a few. Perfect gentlemen. It was great fun this past year. I wish you all the best.
And to all of those that have supported me, and those who may (and have) voted for me – I thank you from the bottom of my heart. We shall see what the future brings.
Soon.
Thuggery. Not the term I would use. How about – lies, criminal, falsehoods, threats?
And trampling on First Amendment rights. To say the very, very least.
All about Obamacare, er, Healthscare. I mean, healthcare.
Gangsters? Chicago comes to mind. I wonder why. (not)

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie delivers a top flight answer to and about the Teachers Union.
I know, a bit off topic for this site, but – this is a demonstration of the kind of truth that we so desperately need up and down the levels of government.

Don’t know how anyone may consider this, but I wanted to share this short email exchange between a constituent and myself.
I decided to redact the person’s name and email address to protect her from any unwanted contact as a result of this. Hope she doesn’t mind. And since my treasurer’s name is on record, I hope he doesn’t mind that I include his comment as well.

You know actually that is a good point to make.
You live your principals, no debt on your campaign.
You live within your means.
Very good

You are very kind, Lynn.
Don’t worry about the donation bit, it’s way too close to the Primary at this point anyway.
Yes, I’m not rich. My day job starts when I get up at 5:30 or 6am then home by 6pm.
That is, until I started this business of running for office.
Yes, I do know the value of a dollar and how not to over-reach.
Which is why I have stopped spending from my campaign account for the moment.
I may do a little more as my treasurer and I were discussing things at lunch today.
We shall see how the numbers look come the evening (or next day) of the primary.
Night.

P.S. I’m of Irish ancestry, actually. If that matters. Personally, I figure I am an American first. Republican last. Conservative second.

Dear Mr. McAndrew,
Today, I received the ballot for the Maryland Primary, and was researching U.S. Senate candidates.
Upon perusing a Wiki article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Senate_election_in_Maryland,_2010 I noticed that you and Barbara Mikluski (sic) have something in common in regard to your campaign, ZERO DEBT. One major difference is that she has about $3Million and you have hardly anything to work with. It is amazing. This fact intrigued me to go to your web site, and see what your stance is on various issues we are facing today, as a country. I like what I see.
Unfortunately, I have no money to donate towards your campaign, but wanted to know that we need more people like you in politics.
McAndrew is a good Scottish name!
Best wishes for a successful run.
Regards,
Lynn REDACTED

It is NOT okay to persecute Christians.
And Shariah Law is incompatible with our society as a whole. (My opinion.)

Not hardly.
Education secretary urged his employees to attend Sharpton’s rally
Further in the article is this little gem:
… “[Conservatives] think we showed up [to vote for Barack Obama] in 2008 and that we won’t show up again. But we know how to sucker-punch, and we’re coming out again in 2010,” Sharpton said.
Wow, that’s some tough talk for a (gasp) Reverend. Goodness.
Isn’t there a message in the Good Book about, turning the other cheek? Or, love thy neighbor as thyself? What happened to that?
The ease with which your credit card info (what about Real-ID?) can be stolen is upsetting.
