  <blurb>People who want to represent you and me need to show they have both the courage and intellect to fight for a sound, uplifting progressive vision for today&amp;#39;s America. I don&amp;#39;t believe in supporting ideologies of hatred or anger in our politics, nor do I think we need pie-in-the-sky idealism. An effective, ethical, wise government is all this nation is asking for, and these are some of the people I think will help take us there. Support the cause, won&amp;#39;t you?</blurb>

      <pageblurb>If you want change from the Clinton-Bush eras of free but not fair trade, from pre-emptive war and stained blouses, from the disgusting, beyond-the-pale rhetoric of today, he, by many miles, is your man. He&amp;apos;s not a saint, but he is a leader in a dark time, and we owe it to ourselves and those after us to get behind for a true leader for a change. </pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>He&amp;apos;s running a grassroots campaign against a well-financed &amp;quot;moderate&amp;quot; GOP incumbent. The Chamber of Commerce will do what they can to keep his opponent, Beth Coulson in power in Illinois? What are you going to do to stop them?</pageblurb>
