I'm usually a laid back person but Obama has really stirred a hornets nest with me and I'm ready to fight. (About the only thing Obama has been good for, in my opinion, has been to stir Americans up to unify and fight him)
So I would like to know how can I find out who's running against those who voted "yes" to Obamacare so I can support them?
I live in Alabama and every single one of our Democrats and Republicans voted "no" but I can support candidates in other states.
Is there any way ya'll can share information on who's running against the "Yes" Congress-people and also would be helpful if I could get information on HOW to support them (links for donations, any other ways to support them?)
Thanks in advance.
do the research...
google works
I don’t have who’s running against them, but I put this together last night:
Closely contested seats for Dems, or possible pick-ups for Rs. There are others, but I have only listed those where Obama was only up by 50-55% in that district in 2008, or ones that McCain actually won.
There are a couple of that are exceptions to the above, but I listed them because a recent poll in the last 2-3 months either showed them even or behind a R opponent.
Voted FOR:
AZ(1) - Kilpatrick (McCain won here 54%)
CO(3) - Salazar

With those, you should be able to find their opponents.
Don’t be deceived. If your Representatives were truly people of character, they wouldn’t belong to the party they do.
This is simple. Support the opponents of all Democrats.
Steny Hoyer is the number 2 man in the House, He is easily recognised by the Pelosi-brown stain on his nose and after 29 years of sucking the government teat, he needs to be retired. Of course he is a rich man, no one knows how he got that way since he never worked a day in his life other than in politics, and we all know you cannot get rich off a politicians salary.
Running against him this year is Charles Lollar. A black man who calls himself an American, not with a hyphen. A major in the Marine Corps reserve who served in Bosnia. A few bucks for his campaign would be appreciated and would go far to bring down the arrogant number 2 man in the Democrat House.

Call your rep, even if they voted against. Tell them we are ticked and not going to take it. We are a sleeping giant and have been WOKE UP. We can not sit back quietly and watch this go on. We can not tolerate a DICTATORSHIP like they voted on yesterday... against the will of the people.
You need to vote out all Rats..they all contributed to the bill. They just let some off the hook. Without the Rat majority this would never be happening and we need to eliminate every Rat possible.
Just look for the (R) next to their name — all Dems are responsible for this — the ones who voted No included, they just got cover for the upcoming election.
Right you are! I’m in MS and my rep voted no, but he is a democrat and he contributes one seat to the majority in the house. We must eliminate the democrat majority, by voting them out. It’s no longer a question of how they vote, its about who controls the congress. Vote democrats out to regain control and neutralize the closet communist and pathological liar in the white house.
Thanks for the information- that does help.
Thanks. Bookmarked.
So what do you do if the (R) is owned by the SEIU?
I went to his website and could not find what party he belongs to. Is he running as an independant?
Probably won’t be, but at least it’s not the (D) that definitely is owned by the SEIU.
It doesn’t matter. The ones who voted No would have voted yes. They voted for Pelosi as speaker. All Dems must go. All “moderate” or “pro-life” Democrats are lying stupakers.
