Retire John Kerry
2/26/08 | Ogonowski Campaign

Posted on 02/26/2008 3:36:10 PM PST by cotton1706

Dear Fellow Conservative,

I'm working to retire John Kerry from the Senate and the national Democrats know I can succeed. Kerry's liberal friends in Washington will stop at nothing to keep him in the Senate. But I know I can beat him in November and bring change to Washington and I need your help to do it.

The Democrats are scared of my candidacy. Last year I came extremely close to winning a special Congressional election; despite being outspent five to one in a Democrat-leaning district. The national Democrats poured millions of dollars into the Congressional race to defend what should have been a "safe" seat for the Democrats and I have no doubt they'll spend even more to keep John Kerry in the Senate.

Kerry's own campaign is acknowledging the threat of my candidacy! They're so scared of the prospect of losing that they've stooped to low and desperate attempts to attack GOP Senate candidates and our state parties. Just this weekend, they said my state party is a "federal disaster" and an "endangered species."

Join me in proving the liberals wrong. Today, I'm asking you- as a dedicated conservative- to support my campaign with a contribution of $50, $100, $250, $500 or more.

Washington is too big, too corrupt and too controlled by partisan politicians. It is time we change the way Washington does business. I want to go to Washington to end wasteful spending, secure our borders from those who threaten our national security and reduce your tax burden by repealing the death tax and making the current tax cuts permanent.

But I won't be able to do any of this without your help today. Please follow this link to make a generous contribution to my campaign right away. We've estimated we will need to raise at least eight million to beat Kerry and any amount you can give today will put us one step closer to reaching our goal.

John Kerry still has a war-chest full of millions from his failed presidential run and he'll use every penny to keep his Senate seat. While Kerry relies on his expansive war chest and personal funds, I am relying on the generosity of the GOP grassroots to fund my campaign.

Please follow this link right away to give whatever you can today - whether it's $25 or $250 to help me defeat John Kerry in November.

As a farmer, small businessman, and retired lieutenant colonel who spent 28 years in the United States Air Force and Air National Guard, I stand ready to take on John Kerry and the national liberal establishment who will stop at nothing to keep him in the Senate. With your support today, I know I can win this election and retire one of the country's most liberal Senators.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely, Jim Ogonowski

P.S. I'm running for the U.S. Senate to retire one of the country's most notoriously liberal Senators and I need your support today to do so. Kerry's liberal friends are scared of me because they know I can win. More than 50% of voters in Massachusetts want to "give someone else a chance" in the Senate and I stand ready to take office and change the way Washington does business. Will you join my campaign today by making a generous contribution? Your support will make all the difference in getting rid of John Kerry once and for all. Thank you.

Well...I agree with the ‘endangerd species’ part..but wish the guy luck and will probably send him a little cash from the Lonestar State!

and here I was, ready to send 425 bucks until I saw the misprint... 8^)

I’ll send something as well.
And that, I hope, is a good strategy for 08 - support the individuals that you can believe in.

He doesn’t mention it, but his brother was the pilot of one of the planes flown into the Towers on 911.

Jim Ogonowski is a farmer and small businessman from Dracut who recently retired as a lieutenant colonel after serving 28 years in the Air Force and Air National Guard. Jim first came to national attention on September 11, 2001 when the plane his brother was piloting was hijacked and flown into the World Trade Center. In the words of ABC News, Jim “stepped forward when others could only cry.” After his brother’s death on 9/11, Jim came to the rescue of his brother’s family by working the farm and saving it from being sold.

Ogonowski’s brother was murdered on 11 September 2001. Guess by who.

I think that it will be tough for him to get that elusive 10 percent or so this November here in Massachusetts in order to beat Kerry, but I for one think it can be done.

I’ll also throw a few bucks his way.

Jeff Beatty is also running on the Republican side for this seat. Between the two of them, I’m not sure which one is truly more conservative on all of the issues, and I also wish that there wouldn’t be a Republican primary challenge for this seat with all of the difficulty that there continues to be for the Republican Party to win anything important throughout the state of Massachusetts.

“...getting rid of John Kerry once and for all.”

Please, let’s be fair to Mr. Kerry! He was once in Viet Nam!
