Isakson is a poor Senate choice
"Johnny Isakson, who is running for the U.S. Senate, has a problem saying one thing to the people of Georgia and then voting differently in Washington D.C."
"In other words, Republican U.S. Rep. Isakson has one eye on the presidency, and he votes accordingly."
"Mr. Isakson is a Ted Kennedy liberal who voted consistently with the likes of Democratic U.S. Reps. Dick Gephardt and Nancy Pelosi on many key issues."
"Mr. Isakson voted three times to use taxpayers' money to sue gun manufacturers."
"He tells Georgians that we need to be tough on criminals, but at the same time he voted for President Clinton's gun-control bill of 1999, with ultra-liberals Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, Dick Gephardt and Nancy Pelosi."
"Mr. Isakson, true to form, also is two-faced on abortion. Pro-abortion or pro-life, he swings both ways to fit the occasion."
"For the first time in my lifetime I will not vote for the Republican candidate for the Senate, if that candidate is Johnny Isakson. We cannot trust him to be tough on terror when he is soft on crime."
"There are two other fine Republican candidates for the July primary. I will vote for Mac Collins."

East Cobb congressman (Johnny Isakson) criticized for missing hometown debate
"While three of Georgia's four Republican candidates for U.S. Senate debated in Marietta, one of the most high-profile candidates of the race was noticeably absent."
"My first question is, 'Where's Johnny?'" Cain said, in a tone similar to the opening line from The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. "I believe the people deserve to hear from all of us. That's my first question, and there is nobody here to answer it."
Rep Mac Collins: "I wish my opponent could be here to speak on his record."

Mac Collins: Voting record speaks for itself
By David Burch-Marietta Daily Journal Staff Writer
"In his campaign for the U.S. Senate, U.S. Rep. Michael "Mac" Collins says his record in Washington speaks for itself."
"During the course of the campaign, Isakson has been painted largely as a moderate Republican while Collins and Cain have been deemed the more conservative candidates headed into the primaries."
Collins said, "I had always voted Republican on the national ticket, but in Butts County, we didn't have enough Republicans to have a good meal together,"
"He was one of a number of members of Congress in Iraq when the president arrived to visit troops last Thanksgiving."

Georgia Democrats have Johnny Isakson
Jeff Dickerson said: "Lots of folks say Democrats have no candidate in the Senate race. Wrong. They've got Johnny Isakson."
"Of course, Georgia voters don't know Denise Majette from Adam -- well, from Eve -- and they have no intention of giving her the nod over the likes of Johnny Isakson.... Doggonit, Denise! What were you thinking?"
Johnny Isakson is the Liberal Republican, running against Mac Collins for the U.S. Senate.
Isakson is not a "moderate"." He voted on opposite sides of most issues from Mac Collins and Saxby Chambliss.
Johnny Isakson voted on the same sides as Nancy Polosi and Dick Gephardt.
In a 1996 Senate race Guy Millner, said: "Isakson isn't conservative enough for Georgia."
Now, even Georgia Democrats think of Isakson as a Liberal Democrat.
Mac Collins's conservative philosophy won him a seat on the Ways and Means Committee, serving on the subcommittees for Social Security and Select Revenue Measures.
Mac is on the House permanent Select Committee on Intelligence; and serves as Deputy Majority Whip and Regional Representative to the GOP Steering Committee in the Republican leadership. Mac is serving his sixth term in the United States Congress. (Click Here) For his new website- ibackmac.com.
Johnny Isakson's voting record will also speak for itself.
Johnny, you are not a "moderate", when you vote on the same sides as Nancy Polosi and opposite sides of most issues from President Bush and Saxby Chambliss.
