Prior to starting the morning, Channel 8 filmed a short piece about the vile mailers sent by [The DCCC on behalf of] Julia Carson and her non-apology news conference.
Congressional Candidate Eric Dickerson (R)(IN-7) showed his unwavering support for the 2nd Amendment to the United States Constitution by attending the Indy 1500 Gun and Knife Show at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. The response from the assembled crowd was resounding, and unanimous support for removing the anti-Freedom Julia Carson from Congress.
Eric also went to the Indiana Flea Market which was also held at the Fairgrounds and again had a tremendous response from the patrons and the vendors alike. While we were meeting and greeting everyone at the flea market the folks from Fox 59 called and wanted to do a piece for the Saturday 10 PM news. Eric agreed and Fox 59 met us at the Fairgrounds. So if you see this before 10 PM tonight, tune in to Fox 59 in Indianapolis.
Sunday morning at 7:30 Eric Dickerson will be on Channel 13 live on "Indiana Insiders".
We are in the home stretch and we are on our way to a historical victory!
PING!

Great news!!!!
WOO HOO!!!!!! EW seems to have the MSM on his side! Keep up the good work!
Normally Sunday was a day to recoup and recharge. Not today. We had an exceptionally long day of campaigning. The TV interview went excellent, and this was with a TV station that has not typically been friendly to Eric Dickerson so far in this campaign. Eric was interviewed live in front of RV7 and about 20 of us volunteers forming a line behind Eric. Julia was filmed in front of her house, nobody around but a bunch of yard signs, and she either couldn't hear, her earpiece fell out and started to feedback thru her mic attached to her lapel, her wig got askew, and she couldn't get a complete sentence out without going into a coughing fit. After the live TV interviews at 7:30 we went to a local Cracker Barrel and had breakfast. We were greeted with a very welcoming reception, though many of the guests there were from outside the district.
After breakfast we went to a Target store to do some shopping and while we were there we would mix and mingle with the other Target shoppers. We got kicked out of Target for "soliciting" and we were not handing out information. We were told not to shop there. Considering they kicked out the Salvation Army this does not suprise me. That's OK next time we'll go to Wal-Mart.
We went to a couple flea markets to meet the vendors and mix with the patrons, then went to visit the phone banks of the county GOP and Eric gave a short rah-rah speech to those who were there volunteering to make phone calls to GOTV.
After meeting all the assembled phone workers and the short speech we proceeded to wander (and shop) Circle Centre mall. At 6 PM we finally decided to call it a day and all of us went home.
Less than 48 hours and we'll make history.

This would be fantastic. Adios Julia.
Another one to keep an eye on.
"Eric Dickerson: The Name You Know"
I'm concerned that the polls showing Dickerson either slightly ahead or slightly behind may not have been confined to the portion of Marion County that lies within the lines of the IN-07; Marion precincts outside the IN-07 are overwhelmingly Republican, and if those voters were mistakenly included in the poll it would skew the results towards Dickerson. So I'm afraid that Carson will most likely win reelection yet again. I really hope I'm wrong about this one, and I sent Mr. Dickerson a contribution to do my part for the Hail Mary that he will need answered.
I sent him a modest contribution as well. At this point we can all applaud him and his supporters for running a very spirited, enthusiastic campaign. Will it be enough to break 50%? Let's hope so!
Along with the last minute voting by busses of "voters".
Voter ID will keep this race honest, and it's about time we sent someone that's not part of the problem back to Washington.
One more ping
