Dropping Like Flies

[Relaxer]

Former congressman Ben Jones (D-Ga.), better known as "Cooter" from Dukes of Hazzard, has a plan to knock Eric Cantor out of the House. He's urging his fellow Democrats to cross over and vote for a tea party-backed candidate in Virginia's primary election.

Cooter, who ran against Cantor in 2002, has penned an open letter calling upon Democrats in his former Virginia district to vote in the open primary next Tuesday for tea party opponent Dave Brat in order to defeat U.S. House Majority Leader Cantor.

Crossing party lines to vote in an open primary has a long tradition in the solidly one-party South, Cooter argues in his letter. "By voting for David Brat in the Seventh District Republican primary, we Democrats, independents, and Libertarians can make a big difference in American politics," he argues. "It is your right to cast that vote. It is an 'open' primary and it doesn?t preclude anyone from voting anyway they wish in November. It may be the only way to empower those who want to make a statement about the dysfunctional Congress and 'politics as usual.'"

Could we keep this thread to be about people who actually died?  I see a new post in here and I expect to see a famous person I know and love died and you can imagine my disappointment when I see you are talking politics.

Yes, I can see how someone not dying would be a disappointment.

Sorry for your loss.  I found this photo of him and they said he was 44 that looks like he is 64.  I guess rock n roll lifestyle takes its toll.

Gene Ween passed away a few years ago man from a heroin overdose. As you know Ween was a pretty big band back in the day even playing DAR and selling out the 930 regularly...Gene Ween was a pretty fat fuck towards the end...

The picture you've posted is a recent picture of Aaron Freeman who heads up a group called "Freeman" that is playing the Rock and Roll Hotel... They're just starting out, first album yet to be released, so tickets are fairly inexpensive ($17) and it hasn't sold out...
