Gus' First Assignment! (that we know of)

And he was appointed by a Democrat! Guess he can't do too much harm with this one.

An Interview with Gus Bilirakis

Here's Gussie! I wonder if Mama was standing behind him feeding him the answers??? Gus did sign "The Pledge" to support education (kudos for that). Can't remember the details of The Pledge, but I signed it MONTHS ago at an HCDEC meeting. http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/myfox/pages/InsideFox/Detail?contentId=1827565&version=1&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=VSTY&pageId=5.2.1

Let's Help Gus Bilirakis Make the Top 50

Oh, boy. Over at MyDD, we have a brand new election series up. Democraticavenger will be following the top 50 endangered House Republicans for 2008. He will update his assessments monthly from now until election day. Here's the link to his initial post: http://www.mydd.com/story/2006/12/18/161421/34#readmore You will see that Gus is considered a "potentially vulnerable freshman."

Let's do our best to see that he makes the coveted (for us!) top 50.

Mitchell Running Against Gus

Gus hasn't even been sworn it and he already has an opponent! Attorney Bill Mitchell has jumped into the race against Gus in '08. Here's a link to the blurb in the St. Pete Times:

Of course, the lizard brains (Corbeaunoir) at The Buzz are saying he has "no class" for daring to run against Mama'a boy Gussie. What is it with these people and their "class" comments? Guess they don't like democracy.
