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.

NORTHWEST CORNER OF WA - CITIES INCLUDE ARLINGTON, EVERETT, MOUNT VERNON & BELLINGHAM Dem Rick Larsen has represented WA-02 since winning the 2000 election. This year he will face the GOP's John Koster who has 23 years of real world business experience as a dairy farmer in Snohomish County. Koster has a reputation as a fiscal watchdog in the Washington state legislature and the Snohomish County Council. He is ready to carry the torch for smaller government and lower taxes in the U.S. Congress. In contrast, Larsen will have a tough time explaining his votes for the failed 'stimulus' and the government healthcare takeover. |

There is no doubt: John Koster is a good conservative man.
OTOH, Rick Larsen votes with Nancy Pelosi 98% of the time. He admits that his office was swamped with calls before the Obamacare vote. Half of the callers told him to vote “no” and the other half told him to vote “hell no”.
But he didn’t want to disappoint Nancy. It’s time to unelect this Clymer.
