Smith: Losing Sleep Over Citizens Party Revival

Ninth District Republicans can be sure of one thing, Rep. Adam Smith wants the novice, Basler, in the Top 2 rather than formerly G.O.P. candidate ten years ago, but now Citizens Party candidate, Mark Greene.  Smith, who you just know prefers an opposite major party novice as his General Election opponent, is probably worried that Mark Greene will make the Top 2 and thus would become the first 3rd party candidate to get on the General Election ballot by overcoming a major party candidate, as Smith realizes that a strong coalition of Republicans, Democrats, other Third Parties, and Independents can send him scurrying to the White House begging for an ambassadorial job if he is sent packing, if not to K Street where he would be welcomed as a lobbyist.  The cover has finally been blown on Smith's votes in Congress that are completely out of touch with the wishes of his constituency, and Smith's last hope is for the loyal opposition to put up the same old typecast candidate, similar to the election of 2012, that only one side will vote for, and not the coalition candidate that Smith knows could actually win.

Mark Greene probably won the G.O.P. primary in the Old 9th District in 2004 [http://partyofcommons.blogspot.com/2013/02/major-election-irregularities-graph_26.html], and he's counting on Republicans and others to put him in the Top 2 through this year's August primary.

Our Washington State Lieutenant Governor Candidate Blog

There will be a special place to write about the Lieutenant Governor 2016 election, which I'm in, and specifically Washington state issues and matters, generally, even when the election is over.  All of the recent Lieutenant Governor posts on FW Politics  will be carried over to the new blog, Washingtonian.   I am proud to be a natural-born American and a Washingtonian, and I will need your vote to stand up for the Common Man in our state and our nation.   [Originally posted on Washingtonian on April 29, 2016; revised on May 26, 2016.]

Republicans Turning to Citizens Party In Droves

The Republican Party in the 9th District of Washington has been pleasantly surprised by the success of my coalition campaign to attract all parties and my common sense platform to fix the economy, turn America inward from the foreign wilderness and to keep a traditional outlook in political affairs.  They also like the fact that if I became a congressman, that I would not be a puppet of Wall Street, but a representative of Main Street.  They know that I am a true friend of their party, and they want somebody in the General Election that has a real chance of winning, not another Postma or Muri that can only attract intra-party votes and has no real chance of succeeding in the radically redrawn New 9th District, especially with Basler, as the Seattle Times put it, hardly waging a campaign.   -- Mark Greene, candidate for Congress, Congressional District 9, Citizens Party Note:  I just found out that a prominent Ron Paul website has been playing up Ad...
