It's a prospect Democratic national chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz signaled today when asked about the prospect of a Giffords appearance.
"I expect that she will," Wasserman Schultz told reporters at the arena. "In fact I'm going to see her in D.C. this afternoon. I'm sure we'll probably talk about it. We've already talked about that. I think she'd very much like to go."
Wasserman Schultz, a congresswoman from Florida, is close to Giffords, an Arizona Democrat who resigned in January to concentrate on her recovery.
She's scheduled to make a rare public appearance this weekend for for former aide Ron Barber, who's seeking to succeed her in Congress. Barber faces Republican Jesse Kelly in a June 12 special election for Giffords' seat.
According to a story in today's Politico, Barber, who was also wounded in the January 2011, has sought, in a newly drawn, GOP-leaning district, to distance himself from the man who will be re-nominated at the Charlotte convention.
Gifford might appear at a place Wasserman-Schultz called a battleground? I thought the Dems frowned upon such rhetoric.
ReplyDeleteI just hope the idiot that shot her, and the others, will spend the rest of his life at the "crossbars" hotel...without parole
ReplyDeleteThis from the party that can turn a funeral into a pep rally...
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing story I just hope the dems don't politisize her pimp her out for their personal gain..but this is politics
ReplyDeleteSo I guess Daily Kos will "certainly put a bullseye" on Charlotte.
ReplyDeleteJust hope she is not standing anywhere near Obama while he is in Charlotte. If he escapes his time without one of the local Teathug rednecks trying to take a potshot at him it will be a miracle. Would be tragic if she it hit twice in a lifetime.
ReplyDeleteI may not like her party, but ya gotta love her strength!
ReplyDeleteBut how sad she continues to support the taking down of America.
I guess she will walk on water just like the Prophet Obama
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for Giffords, but certainly not emotional. But Wasserman-Schultz is a bad joke.
ReplyDeleteTo use some poor woman shot in the head by another lib in AZ all to get Obama & Co a few more Demo crackhead votes is as low as it gets.
ReplyDeleteDoes being shot in the head give voters more reason to vote? Pathetic. Libs and guns is bad news. 99% of serial killers pedophiles and murderers are libs. Go fig.
New president Romney needs to ban all libs from owning guns.

ReplyDeleteFBI has your IP. Sounds like some redneck liberal homo.
A deviant perverted homosexual pedophile liberal college student did all the shooting of Giffords and the others including a child and is in jail.
The 2nd amendment should not be allowed for liberal killers.
Homosexual serial killers:

ReplyDeleteRepublicans leaders are pedophiles
Deputy Press Secretary for DHS Brian Doyle, 55, was arrested for trying to solicit sex from a 14-year-old (really an undercover cop) through the Internets.
Frank Figueroa, special agent in charge of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Tampa -- who was in command of Operation Predator, the agency's program to bust child predators -- will be facing trial this week for walking up to a 16-year-old girl in a mall, pulling up his pant leg and masturbating for 10 minutes.
