  <title>Progressive Iowa</title>
  <author>mole333</author>
  <blurb>Iowa is considered a microcosm of America. And it is very much a purple state. Traditional progressive values dominate the Iowa political scene, and as long as Democrats fight for these traditional progressive values, we will win. This webpage is dedicated to taking and holding the heart of America&amp;#39;s heartland: Iowa.</blurb>

      <pageblurb>This seat is currently held by Steven King (R), one of the Katrina 11, Republicans who eagerly supported no-bid contracts for Halliburton but voted against aid to Katrina victims. Defeating the Katrina 11 has been one of my top priorities. Contributions to this fund will be sent to the Democratic nominee upon his or her selection.</pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>Becky Greenwald is running against Tom Latham (R) in the IA-04 district. 

&lt;a href="http://www.beckygreenwald.com/content/index.html"&gt;Let me quote from her website&lt;/a&gt;:

&amp;quot;In Tom Latham, we have a congressman who has continually opposed women&amp;rsquo;s reproductive rights and has given a green light and a blank check to George Bush&amp;rsquo;s war in Iraq.

Together, we will make a difference for those struggling to get by on the minimum wage.

We will make a difference for those who cannot afford access to quality healthcare.

We will make a difference for those brave men and women returning from Iraq and Afghanistan and facing life with an injury and the scars of war.

We will make a difference when we repeal the unfunded mandate known as No Child Left Behind.

We will make a difference when we invest in homegrown energy alternatives which lessen our dependence on foreign oil, clean up our environment, and put Iowans to work at high-paying jobs which can&amp;rsquo;t be outsourced and can be unionized. &amp;quot;</pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>Loebsack unexpectedly won this seat from a Republican incumbent in 2006. He will probably be one of the most targeted Congressmen in 2008. Let&amp;apos;s start the defense early.</pageblurb>
