    From the press release:

    The most recent financial data from the 19th District State Senate campaign reveals that Tony Strickland is enjoying a lopsided advantage over opponent Hannah-Beth Jackson. In the last filing period, from May 18 through June 30, Strickland raised almost a million dollars pulling in $946,577 while his opponent raised $169,566, an advantage of more than five to one.

    Since January 2008, Strickland has raised $1,135,582.21 to Jackson’s $371,240.46 and his nearly $1.3 million cash-on-hand is a significant advantage over the $406,569.50 of Jackson.

    The fundraising trend follows a primary election vote advantage of almost 4,500 for Strickland who has appealed to a broad spectrum of the electorate with his strong record of independent leadership and his role in advancing renewable energy sources as Vice President of GreenWave Energy Solutions, a wave energy company.

    The Democrats have not yet begun to show their hand in this pivotal California State Senate race. Believe Flap when he tells you that the California Democrat Party will spend $ millions in the Fall to win this seat and perhaps a Gubernatorial veto proof majority in the California State Senate.

    The transfers from the Democrat party apparatchik will come fast and heavy and from all of the usual sources, especially the trial lawyers and public employee unions.

    Tony Strickland has mad a good start but will have to raise much more to pay for media. When you get a chance go here and send Tony a few bucks.

    Barack Obama Watch: Flipping on Offshore Oil Drilling

    Barack Obama ridicules offshore oil drilling to solve America’s energy problems

    Barack Obama’s former Pastor Jeremiah Wright:

    “He’s a politician, I’m a pastor. We speak to two different audiences. And he says what he has to say as a politician. I say what I have to say as a pastor. Those are two different worlds. I do what I do. He does what politicians do. So that what happened in Philadelphia where he had to respond to the sound bytes, he responded as a politician””He’s a politician, I am a pastor. We speak to two different audiences. And he says what he has to say as a politician….”

    Well, Jeremiah Wright certainly had that correct because less than a week after the Springfield, Missouri speech where he called offshore oil drilling a scheme Obama is now embracing it.

    U.S. Sen. Barack Obama said today he would be willing to open Florida’s coast for more oil drilling if it meant winning approval for broad energy changes.

    “My interest is in making sure we’ve got the kind of comprehensive energy policy that can bring down gas prices,” Obama said in an interview with The Palm Beach Post.

    “If, in order to get that passed, we have to compromise in terms of a careful, well thought-out drilling strategy that was carefully circumscribed to avoid significant environmental damage – I don’t want to be so rigid that we can’t get something done,” Obama said.

    Flap supposes Barack Obama reads polls and the latest ones, including the latest Florida poll, say that American voters DO support some offshore oil drilling.

    But, this was NOT Barack Obama’s position less than a week ago. Flap realizes people can change their mind. But, sheesh…..

    With a politician like Obama who has a thin resume, lacks extensive government experience and voting record, Americans will ask:

    • What are Obama’s “TRUE” positions on the issues?
    • On what other issues will or might Obama flip-flop?
    • “Can we trust a FLIPPER Obama with the Presidency?”

    Barack Obama flipped on Iran being a threat to the United States and negotiating with Iran’s President Ahmadinejad without any pre-conditions. Now, it is offshore oil drilling.

    What will come next?

    The Iraq War and the Surge?

    A ROOKIE for change DID work for Obama against Hillar Clinton in the Democrat primary elections. But, working class women will not be fooled twice. Will they punish Obama in the general election?

    Today’s general election polls have a race that is deadlocked with a whopping 30% of conservative Democrats planning to vote for John McCain.
