Rock on Thad! |
As things stand now U.S. Representative Thaddeus McCotter (MI-11)
isn't going to be on the August Republican primary ballot and which is necessary if he wants run for re-election. The Redford Township-based Republican's organization failed to gather and file enough valid signatures to get on the ballot and so the only thing he can do now is wage a write-in primary campaign and hope for the best or grin and bear it and retire. The effort and money needed for a sucessful write-in campaign will be tough going and the utter incompetence shown by McCotter's staff sure doesn't recommend him very highly for re-election either. So there's that.
But I'll shed no tears for Thad. Numerous new career opportunities are now available to him. Fox News Channel might want to hire him as an expert commentator or he could find a decent gig as a lobbyist or maybe
go on tour with his rock band. It's been
obvious for a while now that serving in Congress just bores him.
