State Senator Alan Nunnelee has filed organizational papers with federal officials announcing his intent to run for congress, the Daily Journal confirmed today.
This would be for the seat held by conservative Democrat, Rep. Travis Childers of Booneville.
The election for that office is scheduled for November 2010.
The papers filed with the Federal Election Commission are a statement of candidacy and his statement of organization.
More on this story as it is available.
We should have sent Alan to Washington to tell the Bush/Cheney regime not to hold us hostage to nonsense record spending and NO to a war of choice.
Pelosi serves great as Speaker and I'm sure that if elected, Alan would work in a bipartisan manner with Pelosi. He's NOT a small brained idiot as some are.

Your obvious envy and/or jealousy of Mrs. Childers is really sad....and I doubt that's an origninal thought that I had when reading your comment. I figure a majority of the viewers had the same thought before I read your comment.

Enjoyed the comment, Kudzu!
ha ha ha KUDZU You must be one of the lawyers supporting Childers.
That's what Sen. Nunnelee, a good state senator, is going to try to make this -- a race against Obama, Pelosi, et al. He'll have a hard time rbeating Blue Dog Childers, one of the most conservative congressmen in D.C. Of course, Nunnelee does have a lot the march-in-a-straight-line Republicans of our area to count on. They've not had an original thought in years.
Is Nunnelee going to resign from the state Senate? Wasn't he elected to serve his constituents? Can he do that while running for Congress? Doesn't he claim to be big on ethics? Or has he become just another Republican? You know, the ones who have our state and nation in such fine shape today.
