McGlowan Returns to Paul Gallo Show

Angela McGlowan, Republican candidate for congress, is scheduled to appear on the Paul Gallo Show this Thursday, February 25th. Paul Gallo hosts a radio program on Supertalk Mississippi which broadcasts in Hattiesburg, Tupelo, Oxford, Jackson, Brookhaven and other locales across the state.

McGlowan was a guest on Gallo's show in August 2009, and her position on gun control (specifically the requirement to report all guns in one's possession on income tax forms) brought about quite a reaction from conservative listeners. A recording of this program is available on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNg6jh9oyqg.

At her campaign kick-off event in Hernando recently, an attendee questioned her stance on guns in light of these comments. McGlowan responded saying she "misspoke" and at the time was not an elected official but instead a political analyst who simply played the devil's advocate "for ratings". She did; however, cite that she had been violently attacked in a mugging incident and believed that people should be able to carry a concealed weapon for the purpose of protection.

And at a campaign kick-off event in Tupelo, McGlowan offered a response to critics of her comments on the Gallo show. A video of this reponse can also be viewed on YouTube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=SF-fhzS8X5k.

For more information on how to listen live to the Paul Gallo show this Thursday, visit the SuperTalk Mississippi radio website at http://www.supertalk.fm/. Listeners can tune in to the program on the website or via a number of radio stations depending on locality. A list of stations is posted on the site.

Campaign Funds for District 1 Race No Secret

Much attention has been paid (no pun intended) to funds in the campaign coffers of District 1 congressional candidate, Alan Nunnelee, and incumbent, Travis Childers. It has been reported that Nunnelee has successfully raised a more significant amount through personal contributions than Childers in a very short time, yet Childers claims to still maintain more cash on hand.
