He’s (maybe) BAAAAAAAAAACCCCCKKKKK:
Now, the 48-year-old Republican is thinking about a return to Congress – in George Radanovich’s 19th Congressional District.
“I started getting phone calls last night,” Pombo said today. “Obviously, I haven’t made my mind up on it at all, but it is something that I am considering.” (Fresno Bee)
Now, don’t expect Jeff Denham to simply stand aside for Pombo, and Rep. Radanovich likely won’t change his endorsement. After all, Pombo does have some strikes against him. He’s a bit of a carpetbagger in this seat, and oh yeah, there are the ethics issues still clouding his record. I’m not sure that voters are really looking to find somebody who has a history with Abramoff.
That being said, Pombo’s crazy record, and possible renewal of seniority within the Republican caucus, could be a draw to Republican voters. Don’t count him out yet. Maybe SayNoToPombo needs to make a comeback.
I was hoping he would pop up here in CD-11.
Anyone “saynotoPombo” campaign would be a fun one to work on.
For those dedicated readers of SayNoToPombo, I assure you that Delta would again rise from the marshes and take up the challenge, though he is about as old Don Quixote.
I have it on good authority that babaloo and that crazy guy from Philadelphia were trying to organize a reunion party of Pomboid fighters over the holidaze.
You never know, I might even restart my older Pombo Watch.
All those pretty memories, I know you can hear me now.
