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.

CENTRAL KY, LEXINGTON & SUBURBS, RICHMOND AND FRANKFORT KY-06 incumbent Ben Chandler, once a Blue Dog Democrat, has veered leftward in recent years, supporting the 'stimulus' and the anti-job Cap-and-Trade bill which passed in the House. That record won't play well against the GOP's Andy Barr with his pro-jobs agenda for cutting spending and reducing the national debt. |

Andy Barr is a good friend of mine. I sincerely hope he trounces Chandler, who, I also have the misfortune of knowing quite well.
I’ve donated and volunteered. It’s a tight race, from what I can tell. (I unfortunately live outside this district, so I’m limited in my complete knowledge, as I have some very local races I’m active in also.)
GO ANDY BARR!!!!
