Demote DeLay and the Republican House!

by Walker Willingham

 

These are the candidates I believe are most deserving, candidates with strong, sound stances, running in races where your dollars matter most. I have a strong focus in swing states where your dollars do double duty by helping Kerry too. Please make a contribution to this critical cause.

You just gotta admire anyone willing to take on DeLay directly. I know Texas is not a swing state, but with the ethics problems DeLay’s been having, Morrison is actually within shooting distance. Nobody expected Tom Foley to lose his own seat in 1994 either.
Richard Morrison (D) is taking on right-wing brute squad leader Tom DeLay®.

Egad I hope Minnesota isn’t really a swing state, but this is a great pick-up opportunity.

Colorado could be a tie breaker if its electors get split, and this is a close district!

OK, for the bolder among you, here are some long shot races in that Battleground state Ohio. The grassroots in Ohio is incredible, so big surprises could happen!

This one’s really a longshot, but Jeff Seemann is a solid peace platform progressive whose election would just rock!

Vengeance for Gingrich’s “revolution” wouldn’t be complete without winning back the seat lost that year by then speaker, Tom Foley.
Don Barbieri (D) will face the Cathy McMorris® for the seat of Rep. George Nethercutt®, who is running for Senate.

This election has ended.

Wisconsin is looking like a major cog in this year’s electoral calculus, so getting money into the state’s Democratic GOTV machinery should be a priority. Unfortunately Wisconsin has been redistricted so that every Congressional District is safe for the incumbent’s party. This would be a miracle upset, but Kennedy is a great progressive and just getting more than 40% of the vote would help Kerry’s cause. We need to challenge everywhere!
Brian Kennedy is challenging incumbent Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner®.

Finally, here are the Texas 5, who DeLay personally spited with flagrant gerrymandering in a non-post-census year. To see his efforts backfire would be so sweet. These are closer than anticipated.
Rep. Martin Frost (D) represented TX-24 prior to the recent redistricting; he is now competing with incumbent Rep. Pete Sessions® in TX-32.

LA-05 (Map)

Zelma “Tisa” Blakes (D) is running against turncoat incumbent Rodney Alexander®, who switched his party affiliation to the GOP fifteen minutes before the filing deadline. This pathetic attempt to block any opposition has demonstrated Alexander’s willingness to embrace the most dishonest tactics for political advantage—and thanks to Zelma Blakes, it has failed.

This election has ended.
