[George W. Bush]

I'll make a donation if you can raise the filing fee. If he doesn't have enough support locally even to raise the filing fee, he can't have much chance in an election. Not dissing him or his chances but you have to be practical. You and he both need some indication of local financial support and especially people committed enough to actually work to elect him. Raising a filing fee doesn't mean much if you don't have those other things.

Look to your locals and good luck. Let me know if he makes the filing fee and I'll make a modest Paypal contribution. You really should get a basic position paper out with a website before you ask people to donate.

With all due respect W., come hell or high water, Mr. B. will raise the filing fee. He will need our continued support after the filing fee has been raised and I'm sure he will garner that as well. We look forward to your donation and thanks for the support!

I understand your concerns.

But you know...as I said, the redistricting was just recently passed. Mr. B is going door-to-door now to inform the voters that they are in his district. Hopefully, they will hear his position on issues and choose to donate to his campaign. In the meantime, I'm using this forum to encourage fellow FReepers to help us out in California with this incredible opportunity to seat a true-blue conservative FReeper in a new district!

The Dems and sell-out variety of Republicans pushed this redistricting through in order to get power for lie-berals. (And California RINOs love lie-berals.) Obvious, seeing as in Mr. B's district there seems to be a dearth of Dems to go for the new seat, and they will count it a victory if good conservatives shrug it off.

But George...consider what happened in September in NYC. People are starting to take a harder look at lie-beral policies re: immigration, the Second Amendment, and playing footsie with foreign enemies. In a new district, Mr. B. has a very good opportunity to state his case...and a real good CHANCE at getting elected!

God protect our beautiful state from more lie-beral and RINO control! The dollars I would spend on movies for two and dinner is to me well worth the opportunity of getting a real FReeper PATRIOT in our state legislature!

If not Mr. B...who?

If not now...when?

It's time for grassroots Republicans to show what we're made of.

And the time to act is NOW!
