Exclusive Interview with Dan Benishek

At 4:00, on March 21st, 2010, Bart Stupak (D) MI01, informed the nation that he was going to vote yes on Obamacare. Described as a pro-life Democrat, Stupak led the media and the nation on for months and months that he would not allow the bill to pass with federal funding of abortion. He had received a useless executive order from the most pro-abortion President this country has ever seen, and Stupak’s fate was sealed. He lost the endorsement of the Michigan Right to Life, and the Tea Party Express began it’s nationwide bus tour targeting him for removal from office. Not only that, but immediately after his press conference, Republican Dan Benishek’s popularity soared.

I was happy to have a telephone interview with him, as he traveled from Alpena to Gaylord. After speaking at the Alpena County Lincoln Day dinner the evening before, Dan had a number of television and newspaper interviews yesterday.

Dan noted on his face book page that he decided to run for office after Congress voted on the stimulus bill. I asked Dan if running for political office ever occurred to him prior to that.

I know Dan and have talked to him personally a few times.

Dan is soft spoken, kinda quiet and holds to his principles.

What Dr Dan needs is information..FACTS! Not political speak but raw FACTS! He needs to fine tune.

He is so far ahead IMO that I doubt anyone can catch him in the primary.
