Comments on: Ellsworth to host telephone town hall on Saturday http://www.bloody8th.com/?p=378 An insider's look at one of Indiana's most competitive Congressional Districts Fri, 03 Sep 2010 09:55:25 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Mr. Burns http://www.bloody8th.com/?p=378&cpage=1#comment-97 Mr. Burns Fri, 21 Aug 2009 08:05:40 +0000 http://www.bloody8th.com/?p=378#comment-97 'Telephone Town Hall Meetings?' Oh my gosh. Is Rep. Ellsworth so politically naive that he will consciously hand his 2010 opponent a campaign attack ad on a silver platter? Who is advising Ellsworth to do this kind of Wizard of Oz 'man behind the curtain' nonsense? It must be another member of the cast like the Cowardly Lion. Even a cancer-stricken turncoat like Sen. Spector is facing his constituents at 'live' town halls. Now there is a profile in courage that Ellsworth should emulate! ‘Telephone Town Hall Meetings?’ Oh my gosh. Is Rep.

More accessible than any member? All the other Congressmen are doing actual town hall meetings. Even Barron Hill or called his constituents Terrorist. John Hostettler never feared doing town halls. He did them all the time. Face it Ellsworth is afraid. It doesn't matter if he wins again or if Kreg wins. The only thing that matters is that the Congressman votes against the health care bill. Which he will ulitmately do, because he knows he will go down in flames if he doesn't. Furthermore I hope Kreg wins. That way it will be funny to see what he can do in the minority. I anticipate VU and Vincennes will realize what its like to not have anyone or anybody that will look out for them. Should be fun to watch Kreg suffer watching the Republicans actually draw him a seat that is not 60% Democrat. Than we will see a real challenge. Ellsworth is in the same boat. Republicans already have the Gov and the Senate so what do you think of old Brad's chances once Republicans re-draw his seat? So, go on and keep shooting off your mouth. The time is coming soon.

The reason why your former boss was beat because he went to DC and forgot to come back to the 8th District. Congressman Ellsworth is more engaged with his constituents and more accessible that any Member of the Indiana Delegation. You and guys like Hostettle are out of touch with the people in southwest Indiana - which is why Ellsworth will win next year and so will Battles. Keep up the right wing rhetoric - it is only helping Democrats and pushing away independents...no matter what polls Fox News reports. Troy,

You are dillusional. The reason why your former boss was beat because he went to DC and forgot to come back to the 8th District. Congressman Ellsworth is more engaged with his constituents and more accessible that any Member of the Indiana Delegation.
