Jesse Kelly Beats the Establishment
Melniemorgan.com ^ | 8/26/10 | Melanie Morgan

If there was ever any question about the REAL CHANGE that is coming, just look at Jesse Kelly, a young Marine who faced a Republican-establishment candidate in Tuesday’s primary and won.

Our PAC, WarriorsforCongress.com, wasn’t listening to the establishment. We didn’t care that the money was against Jesse Kelly. “No, we can’t help him. He won’t win.” That’s what we were told by “establishment” folks when we asked them to help Jesse.

We knew better. Jesse Kelly is a Warrior. We looked at him and saw a man who put his life on the line for our Constitution. We saw a Warrior who would take the Hill with our other candidates and help turn this country around. No more open borders. No new taxes. In fact, push back the taxes. Yes to “we the people.” No to “Pelosi, Reid and Obama.”

“The message is that the voters of southern Arizona want a businessman and a combat veteran to fight for practical conservative solutions,” said Kelly’s campaign manager, Adam Kwasman. “They are rejecting career politicians.”

The message is also that people outside of Arizona believe in men like Jesse Kelly. Our friend, Mark Levin, put his name behind Jesse when the “establishment Republicans” pooh-poohed him. Thousands of Americans across the fruited plains came to Warriorsforcongress.com and supported Jesse and our other candidates, including Allen West, who also won last night!

‘Sarah Palin appeared with Republican nominee Jesse Kelly today on Fox Business. She gave one of the most gracious praises of his candidacy I have ever heard saying” I don’t feel worthy to lace his combat boots.”’

I knew you would appreciate.

She didn’t endorse him. At least not until his primary was decided.

The “establishment” had better stand behind him now or there will be no “establishment”.

I think the RNC is broke anyway, and it wouldn’t help to get Michael Steele involved. Palin, DeMint, Bachmann, Etc. would be nice though.

As a reminder, donate to Demint’s Senate Conservatives Fund.

Has Demint supported House candidates? I think he’s only pushing Senate guys, which makes sense. But if he’s loaded with $$...

Glad to hear it. He’s an amazing candidate. He’s probably the best guy the R’s have running in the entire country. I only say probably because of Allen West.

Who’s that third one?

Also don’t forget Adam Kinzinger in Illinois.

Jesse is moving fast - Wed. morning at 8:00 am after the primary I got a survey phone call, want to know if I would vote for our “Solar Queen” Giffords.

It said it was paid for by Jesse. Glad to see him get on the ball quickly after the lousy, negative and distorted ads against him by Patton...
