Rep Tom Price to Attend #BlogBash 2013

Blog Bash, a networking event created in 2010 ‘for political bloggers by political bloggers’, will welcome Georgia Representative Tom Price (R-Roswell) as a VIP guest at the third annual event, which will be held on March 14, 2013 during the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) at National Harbor, Md. Representative Price has made some serious waves in the Georgia political world in recent weeks as speculation continues to mount in anticipation of a potential US Senate run to replace Georgia’s senior Senator Saxby Chambliss (R-Thomasville).
“I look forward to attending Blog Bash at CPAC this year to honor the very important work of members of the National Bloggers Club and enjoy the company of fellow patriots,” said Congressman Tom Price. “Now, more than ever, we must foster a conservative movement unified by our common vision to restore America to its constitutional parameters of limited government and individual freedom. Bloggers are on the front lines defending these conservative principles each and every day, and I am especially grateful for their contributions to our shared cause.”

Sources close to Georgia Congressman Tom Price (R-Marrietta) say that he will delay making a formal announcement on whether or not he intends to take a show at replacing outgoing United States Senator Saxby Chambliss. The timeframe for a public announcement of the decision could be somewhere from 45 to 90 days from now the source tells Viral Read. Those intimately familiar with Congressman Price and the current weight of his decision to enter the Senate race say that Price is very inclined to run, but wants to take his time.
It is unclear whether or not Congressman Paul Broun’s announcement this afternoon will speed up Price’s public decision.

Breaking: Paul Broun Announces Official Candidacy for US Senate

Last Tuesday, ViralRead.com exclusively reported that the wife of Georgia Rep. Paul Broun, Niki, had given her blessing to her husband to seek the seat of retiring Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss in 2014. The announcement puts one of the nation’s most controversial Republican congressmen back in the spotlight.

Tonight was a night of surprises for anyone who attended the Georgia C.H.A.R.G.E (Citizens Helping America Restore Government Ethics) meeting in Gwinnett county. Luckily, ViralRead was on the scene with a front row seat to all the fireworks. The surprise, however, didn’t come from the keynote speaker, former Secretary of State and 2010 gubernatorial candidate Karen Handel. Moments before the meeting was underway Congressman Paul Broun (R-Athens) shocked the crowd as he walked into the room with his wife, Niki Broun, and a top-level staffer.

Sen. Saxby Chambliss Withdraws from 2014 Re-Elect, Rep. Tom Price Eyes Open Seat

In a whirlwind of events, current Georgia Senator, Republican Saxby Chambliss is set to announce his intentions not to run for a third term creating a domino effect amongst current Republican legislators within the state. Chambliss, who was recently under fire for his involvement with the “Gang of Six” as well as his pushback against Grover Norquist’s all mighty tax pledge which he signed nearly 20 years ago, has certainly felt pressure amongst the grassroots and establishment in Georgia to step down from his post.

It’s no secret that Georgia U.S. Senator Saxby Chambliss, (#Taxby, as he is known in many circles), has giant crosshairs on his back looking ahead to the 2014 Republican primary. There have been silly rumors of an Erick Erickson, Karen Handel, Congressman Tom Price, and even Herman Cain jumping into this race to knock out Chambliss, a 10-year incumbent. However, only one has left the door open, even just a little.
