The Key House Races "Candidate of the Day" thread will be posted daily up until Nov. 2 and feature a different candidate each day. Each of these candidates is in a Toss Up, Leans D, or Likely D race and represents one of the front line soldiers in the fierce battle for control of the U.S. House.
The DCCC and liberal special interest groups are pouring resources into these races and will continue to do so up until Nov. 2. Thousands of donations targeted toward the GOP candidates in competitive races will NEUTRALIZE the donations of these Democratic special interest groups. Targeted donations are KEY to the GOP taking back the House in November and derailing the Pelosi/Obama Express of failed economic policies, bailouts, higher taxes, and government takeovers.
If you want your donations to have the greatest impact, here's where to start. Click on the Republican candidate's name below to link to the website where you can make a donation.
