Irey gets boost from Internet fundraising
By MIKE FAHER
The Tribune-Democrat
— Republican Diana Irey's congressional campaigning is picking up speed, attempting to overtake a veteran incumbent and overcome a huge voter-registration disadvantage.
The Washington County commissioner, taking on Democratic U.S. Rep. John Murtha, this week began running her first TV and radio ads.
And her campaign claims to have raised $100,000 since Oct. 1, in part due to Internet-based fundraising and exposure from conservative blogs...
During a stop in downtown Johnstown on Thursday, Irey again criticized Murtha for saying Marines intentionally killed innocent civilians in an incident last year in Haditha, Iraq.
Murtha has not retracted his statements, and his campaign spokesman, Ed Mitchell, said he would not comment on the matter.
Murtha has not aired any television or radio ads, and Mitchell said the congressman plans no special campaign events this weekend.
"The congressman's record is established," Mitchell said....
Also Thursday, Irey joined Republican gubernatorial candidate Lynn Swann and Republican U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum at a GOP event in Richland Township.

I just wanted to get this thread up for the mornin' crew. Now I'm hittin' the hay.
Later, brother!
Dawn Patrol signing in! Fantasic news, smooth!
At dawn, they slept.
BWAHAHAHAHA!
So Murtha's napping, laying low, trusting registered Dems won't bolt! It doesn't take George Patton to see now is the time to attack! As we go into the home stretch, please consider giving one last time to the Irey campaign!
Murtha is NOT pumping money into this race so Diana has no negative ads to counter. Every dollar will go to getting her message out there. And her message is our message. Thanks to all who've helped Diana Irey speak for us!
BIG BUMP
I can't believe the arrogance of this EX-Marine. He could likely overwhelm Commissioner Irey with negative ads, yet he's choosing to continue campaigning all over the country for others during this critical time, thinking he's safe. And I thank him. :-)
Last chance, folks, to send a message to our troops & defeat this sleazeball.
Smooth, please set aside an XL for me if you've got one.
Please help her win
BTTT
Great to have you back, my old son! We've missed you.
I didn't go anywhere. :-)
Instead of wringing your hands this weekend, how about giving a couple of hours (or more if you can) to help the Irey and/or Santorum campaigns turn out the vote? Or at least spread the word to friends/neighbors in PA-12 to vote Irey on Tuesday. Don't be sitting there next Wednesday wishing you'd have done something.
