Murtha / Irey race getting national focus
Boot Murtha / Rightroots ^ | 8/1/06 | Unknown

Posted on 08/01/2006 11:29:37 AM PDT by Coop

The Republican National Committee's eCampaign Director -- Patrick Ruffini -- has sent out an e-message to America. Writes Ruffini:

"A group of prominent conservative bloggers is turning discussion into action with the launch of Rightroots – an effort to support some of the most important House and Senate candidates of this election cycle..."

A visit to the newly online "Rightroots" website shows a listing of GOP candidates deemed "the most important House and Senate candidates for this 2006 election cycle." Included in this select group: Diana Irey -- Congressman John Murtha's PA District 12 opponent!

The brand new website serves as a collecting house as well. Visitors can contribute to any or all of the selected candidates. As of today, candidate Diana Irey has received the most $$ contributions.

This national highlighting of the Pennsylvania race between Irey and Murtha underscores what BootMurtha.com is saying: Rep. John Murtha is an all-American problem. More and more Americans are realizing this and are contributing what they can in time, talent and money to unseat this congressman.

W would be an excellent idea. And I'm guessing it will happen. It ain't going to be Hastert pulling the GOPs bacon out of the fire. Bush is a great campaigner.

Whoops! I see you saw the same total ($4,569) as me much earlier. Either the counter's broken or (hopefully) just shut down for the night.

I think they update the candidate totals periodically by hand. If you look at the total donations counter at the bottom, it seems to update automatically. It's at $23,5xx right now and was under $21K when I went to bed. Less than 3K to go for Rep. Kingston to kick in $14K.

Perhaps. But I'm going to predict Irey will side with me.
