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.
:-D
Good one! He's dressed for his new career come November.
Maybe, when he is booted out of congress, Murtha can come west and become Mayor of Gay Frisco. He will fit right in with the other Hatriotics.
All of the Rightroots candidates are challengers who need the money. That is part of their criteria.
Some are challenging dems, others seeking open seats. No incumbents.
Yes, and I think that's a reasonable approach.
Irey's up to $6,300+ now.

Hey Coop! I'll be in DC on the 18th and I'm bringing friends. I hope to see you there!

Great news, April. Please send me details via FReepmail, and I'll see what I can do. Cheers!

The guy is senile. It's getting more and more obvious every day. I can't wait to VOTE HIM OUT!

Senility means he's not accountable for his despicable actions and words. I'm not giving that EX-Marine such an easy out. Concerning your vote against him, that's super. I wish I could do the same. But it's gonna take a lot of hard work by many people between now and November to get it done. If you're not already, please consider volunteering some time to Commissioner Irey's campaign.

2. "Daddy, that old man stinks of evil and cowardice."
3. "Come on! I'm a very important congressman, he's just a kid. Give me the gawddam kidney!"
4. "Stop crying, Billy. The congressman paid good money to spend an hour with your smooth, pert buttocks."

I would be surprised to see Murtha do much local campaigning himself. Surrogates and campaign commercials with some tightly controlled townhall type events. Murtha's handlers will not risk a public appearance where there is the possibility he will get his chain yanked by some wayward Freeper.
If I were one of his handlers (God forbid) I wouldn't worry about FReepers. With Murtha's verbal vomit problem, I'd be afraid to let him off his leash.
At this stage in the game, I would prefer to see someone like Laura or Condi make a campaign stop for Mrs. Irey.
