SOUTH & MIDWEST
This will continue to be updated periodically. The rest of country ... threads will be updated ... links are placed below in this thread.

Again, the criteria: the candidate must have a legit shot in NOV in their district and they are also in a tough primary fight against a candidate with lesser conservative appeal (or even a liberal).

Donate today. If broke, send $14 for victory in '14.

The GOP should give at least some token support to Terry Bowman for the Michigan 12th district seat against Debbie Dingell. Its an awfully high hurdle but if it costs the democrats some money that should be enough.

For all the work he put in for RTW in Michigan, this is one union worker who deserves some support.

The biggest and most important primary of all. Defeating Eric Cantor in VA-7. David Brat is the man.

David Brat for Congress

SOUTH AND MIDWEST HOUSE primary update ping
Technically, there are no primaries in LA-6 and LA-5 McAllister, but we’ll add those here in coming weeks.

WI-06 OPEN, we’ll keep an eye on this race.

And places where we can WIN! PLEASE contribute! And if you can't contribute money ... the least we can do is go to their pages and give them a "like" or a tweet.

What good is a like or a tweet to a pol that just wants your cash?

Makes you feel warm and fuzzy, just like a liberal twitter.

A candidate that raises 90K is not gonna beat a candidate that raises 5 million.

“What good is a like or a tweet”

ping to ConMan55 ... the originator of the ping/tweet contribution.

Actually, end of quarter reports press releases often include a report of how many individuals donated during the quarter .... so a bunch of $5 contributors is good publicity cuz they just report the $ total and the number. Any House candidate with over 400 donors is impressive. But the Like/Tweet numbers .... it is unclear what the impact is. ConMan??

When you like something or tweet something.. you are publicly showing your support.

I have 900 facebook friends. When I like something.. all 900 see that I have thrown my support to a particular candidate and they also see his or her name.

Same with tweeting.

What do we make of the controversy about Beason ... just tell D.C. to screw? Palmer isn’t getting much traction I think.

And which candidate in IA will make a surge?
