The Key House Races "Candidate of the Day" thread will be posted daily up until Nov. 2 and feature a different candidate each day. Each of these candidates is in a Toss Up, Leans D, or Likely D race and represents one of the front line soldiers in the fierce battle for control of the U.S. House.
The DCCC and liberal special interest groups are pouring resources into these races and will continue to do so up until Nov. 2. Thousands of donations targeted toward the GOP candidates in competitive races will NEUTRALIZE the donations of these Democratic special interest groups. Targeted donations are KEY to the GOP taking back the House in November and derailing the Pelosi/Obama Express of failed economic policies, bailouts, higher taxes, and government takeovers.
If you want your donations to have the greatest impact, here's where to start. Click on the Republican candidate's name below to link to the website where you can make a donation.

PORTIONS OF SOUTH SHORE & ALL OF CAPE CODE & ISLANDS Democrat Bill Delahunt, representative since 1997, is retiring at the end of this term. State Representative, Attorney and College Professor Jeff Perry won the Massachusett's GOP primary with a convincing 62% of the vote. Perry will face Norfolk County District Attorney Bill Keating. Keating's record on tax hikes and big spending is the epitome of what voters overwhelmingly rejected by electing Scott Brown. Jeff Perry has been a fiscal watchdog in the state legislature fighting against bigger government, higher taxes and wasteful spending. |

I live here in MA10th and can tell all that the rats are spending TONS of cash on radio and tv buys trying to paint Jeff as a disgraced Cop. The ads are maddening to hear but to those who dont follow politics are sleazily convincing.
Jeff needs your help and CAN win this seat. Scott Brown won the MA 10th by 60-40 and is an endorser of Jeff for this campaign.
Please donate to Jeff and help us take back this seat (one which will have to be fumigated first no doubt)
Just got this email from Jeff Perry. Please join me in helping him run more Radio & TV Ads with Scott Brown’s message....Perry can win with our help!
Friends,
Politics hasn’t always been this dirty. In fact, I have never personally seen a campaign as negative and as nasty as that being unleashed by my opponent and his surrogates. The voters deserve so much more.
Yesterday, Sen. Scott Brown took to the airwaves with a new radio commercial supporting my candidacy for U.S. Congress:
This is United States Senator Scott Brown with a message for the people of the 10th Congressional District. You have another chance to shake up the status quo in Washington on Tuesday, November 2nd by electing Jeff Perry as your next congressman.
We need Jeff working in Congress to cut out wasteful spending and get going on a jobs program that will turn our economy around.
And Senator Brown did not stop there. He responded to the barrage of attacks aimed at our citizen movement:
Sadly, Jeff’s opponent in this race, Bill Keating, has decided to focus almost entirely on negative attacks concerning an incident that took place almost two decades ago and which didn’t directly involve Jeff.
These are the same ugly tactics that were used against me in my campaign for the United States Senate. You saw through those attacks then, and I hope you’ll do the same now.
We are on the verge of history. For more than 40 years, Democrats have held this Tenth Congressional seat. My opponent will only continue the failed tax-and-spend policies that have served to exacerbate our financial problems. He will be another vote with Speaker Pelosi and the liberals on Capital Hill.
Yesterday was not a good day for Perry as I’m sure we know. Good thing they used their dirty laundry too early.
