Holy S**t, Mickey Kaus Ran For Senate

I wished I knew sooner that Mickey Kaus was running for Senate. To prove my theory that Kaus is an unserious man; he was foolish enough to run against Barbara Boxer. The vote count was not even close.

BOXER - 80.5 percent
KAUS - 5.3 percent

I also love the fact Kause used the amatuerism Site Builder for his Senate canidacy web site. According to OpenSecrets.org, Kaus raised $32,083 and still had $12,104 on hand. What exactly was he saving the money for? Kaus is so out of touch that he thought his vanity campaign would enhance his image. Wow.

Kaus presents his defeat as a moral victory.

And wee still ripped off more than a 100,000 votes from a three because there is a large group of voters who are dissatisfied with the prevailing dogma of the party.

I entered the race because I wanted to start up an argument among Democrats about the party's direction -- about the need to say "no" to the unions and to insist on securing the borders before we even talk about amnesty.

Actually Mickey, you only got 94,298 votes. I don't know where you think you got over a 100,000 votes. I am getting my numbers from the California Sec. of State office.

Kaus thinks the two issues most on Democratic voters minds is contempt for Hispanics and unions. Kaus has been blogging his disdain of unions and immigration for years. He is actually stupid enough to think Mexicans will stop coming over the border if there is some magic security. As long as there is immense poverty, lack of education, corropt and drug wars Mexicans will flee their home country. Canada has universal health care and a staple economy. That is why we don't have a mas exodus of Canadians coming into America.

Contrary to what Kaus believes from his neoliberal training; union are the reason we have safe work places, child labor laws and (increasin) equal pay for genders. I like to hear the economically iliterate Kaus say what has neoliberal ideas done for the job market
