Artur Davis is telling the world he is going to run for Governor of Alabama in 2010. The Birmingham News reports: “. . . he plans an announcement in early February, after which he will “travel the state for several days and take my case to the voters of Alabama.”"
Meanwhile, the Montgomery Advertiser has this to say about Representative Davis:
On Wednesday, he outlined a scenario for the governor’s race.
“I think there are going to be eight or nine of us who are going to be getting in the governor’s race. And I think the eight or nine of us will be making announcements between January and March,” he told reporters.
As for himself, he said, “I am going to save the formal announcement until early February.”
Okay, I will say it. Artur, I like you, but man you are delusional if you think you can be Governor of Alabama. I like your speeches, you are pretty cool, but you-can’t-win-a-gubernatorial-race-in-Alabama. There. I said it.
Look, Harold Ford, a guy with more charisma and more electable, could not win in Tennessee, you can’t win in Alabama.
Geez! Barack Obama, a man widely reported to wear pajamas with a large “S” on them under his suit and able to leap buildings with a single bound, could only muster 39% of the vote in Alabama. What makes you think you can do better?
And don’t tell me Race doesn’t matter anymore. This is Alabama. Race is gonna matter for some time. Sorry. Truth hurts.
Artur, if you run, you are going to be beat. And beat bad. And it won’t just be you, every Democrat in Alabama is gonna take a beatdown too. Do you really want to be known as the guy who screwed the pooch for the Democratic Party in Alabama?
Or do we need to get you on this show?
