CD 2 Candidate Jill Derby Storms DailyKos
Jill Derby proved two years ago while campaigning against Dean Heller in a solidly Republican district that she wasn’t afraid of a good fight, and lord knows that blogging on DailyKos is not for the faint of heart (thanks for the tip). But there she is. Advised by members campaign manager David Mason (who I met at a Jill Derby fund raiser on Sunday), Derby raised more money than Heller this quarter, and the more money she raises now, the better chance she has to get some serious national cash soon. I don’t know about you, but I am sick of Nevada’s ridiculously robotic Republican lawmakers towing the Republican party line. Heller votes against sound energy policy, against the middle class (a failing grade no less), against women’s reproductive health, and against insuring Nevada’s children. I honestly don’t know how Heller can look at himself in the mirror anymore. He is not representing us, Heller is representing his re-election committee.
I think it’s high time the women took over. We’ve allowed these one dimensional men screw up enough. Derby, Titus, and Berkley in 2008!

As the voting record on the issues you listed suggest, Heller does not seem pro-human or pro-Earth! Maybe that
Republican Congressman was right! Heller is an Alien escapee
from Area 51. The record itemizing the donations from
a whole bunch of PACs is likewise revealing:

It would have been nice for Derby’s post to have been
promoted to the front page of DailyKos.
Word on this blog article got out via an email blast by
David Mason. Likely email list based on the Washoe Dem
list (sign up via http://www.washoedems.org)
As the FEC reports suggest, the Derby campaign pays for that
all proper and legal. (About $100/email blast.)
Derby is attending the Netroots convention this week in
Austin Texas. There was recently a conference call reportedly with some Nevada bloggers.
She was treated nicely in her first post. (Word hasn’t
gotten out to texex just yet, lol!)
Lucky me, I had registered at DailyKos about a week or so
ago. They don’t let you post comments during the first
24 hours following registration.
Maybe she should put up a blog at her website? Like Bobzien
has at his?
Looks like there will be 3,000 bloggers going to this
Netroot Nation convention in Austin. Hope Jill Derby
can find the Nevada bloggers. Sven of My Silver State is
strangely silent (I have a BOLO out on him now), so perhaps
he’s going??

Hard to believe that there are so few Kosacks here in Nevada. Go, read, bump her post. (I think Sven is in Gremany for the time being.)
Hi Chandler, I just registered there as “atiasrama” only
a week ago, after reading a great article from June called
Integral “Third Way” Politics. So far, this “third way” received only three comments there. How long do they keep the comments thread open on a blog article?
I’m registered there at DailyKos, but I don’t know if I’m
fully in stop with the “Kosack” partyline. As the handle
“atiasrama” would suggest, I don’t like adopting either a “liberal”, “conservative”, “centrist”, “anarchist”,
“nihilistic”, or anyother category you can name.
I think all of us are in fact a more complex mix of perspectives than what any category or handle would suggest.
Atiasrama = beyond categories.
So right Unkept J about Texex finding her post on KOS… it only takes two “trusted users” to hide his comments… ahhh the power. Chandler, I ‘ve chatted with quite a few NV Kossacks. Finally, I hear KOS plays real well in Elko, LOL.
Hmmm…I’m not to sure what to think about Ms. Derby after she left the Wilderness folks hanging out to dry in Lyon County earlier this year..lesser of two evils?
