      <pageblurb>Rep. Mark Souder is, in short, completely out of touch with his constituents. Prone to &lt;a href="http://www.blueindiana.net/showDiary.do?diaryId=3034"&gt;offensive comments&lt;/a&gt; and recently quoted as saying that &lt;a href=""&gt;ending the war&lt;/a&gt; would be bad for the national economy, Souder has solidified his position as one of the wackiest Bush rubber-stampers around. And in the process, he has become what &lt;i&gt;Roll Call&lt;/i&gt; describes as one of the &amp;quot;most vulnerable&amp;quot; incumbents around. Help Mike Montagano give this district back the responsible representation it deserves!</pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>Barry Welsh has spent the last four years working the Sixth District hard, and representing the blogosphere well as one of the most net-savvy candidates around. You know him, you love him, and he is once again holding Rep. Mike Pence&amp;apos;s feet to the fire in one of the reddest districts around.</pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>This district was won by the GOP in a 2006 upset that no one expected. Since then, Republican Jon Elrod has run for Congress (in two elections) and only came crawling back to this seat when it became clear he could not win his bid for higher office. Mary Ann is an amazing candidate who shares the values and priorities of her district. Together, we can help her take back this blue district and give the narrowly Democratic-controlled house some much-needed breathing room.</pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>John Barnes is running in a district that was only lost by a handful of votes in 2006, and he has been fighting ever since to grab this moderate seat back for the Democrats. He is running well this year, but can use every dollar down the home stretch to make sure we see this district turn blue on election night. Support John today!</pageblurb>
