Tea Party Express Celebrates Successful Primary Season
The Tea Party Express celebrated another election victory tonight, marking the end to a very successful primary campaign season.
Below is a list of those who weve endorsed as heroes or spent money.
The Tea Party Express also targeted a number of candidates who ultimately ended up losing/retiring. We launched a $250,000 Defeat Bart Stupak campaign and brought our Tea Party Express 3-bus convoy into his district with 6 tea party rallies in his congressional district (the most weve ever held in a politicians district).
After spending $60,000 on radio and TV ads, Stupak announced his retirement, right while we were in the middle of a rally against him in Escanaba, MI (in the Upper Peninsula, and again in Stupaks district). We announced we were targeting Arlen Specter, and produced a TV ad for Pat Toomey, and then Specter left the GOP and then lost in the Democrat Primary.
We also announced we were targeting Democrat Congressman Alan Mollohan of West Virginia, and he lost too. And most notably, beyond spending over $550,000 supporting Sharron Angles GOP primary campaign (launching it when she was at just 5% in the polls), weve also waged $500,000 campaign against Harry Reid and expect to spend at least several hundred thousand dollars more to defeat him too.
Heres our Heroes list of the candidates weve endorsed most of them big winners:
Keep one handy, just in case...
Pretty much unrelated to Tea Party Express, but plenty relevant, comes word that:
Beverly Hills Tea Party (beverlyhillsteaparty.com) will be holding a rally this Sunday, Sept. 26 at Beverly Hills park — along Santa Monica Blvd. between Canon and Beverly Drives. Parking is along all the side streets —
Time: 2 - 4 p.m. — Pat Boone and other celebs slated to attend.
Just wanted those here on FR in the L.A. area to know about this opportunity to get out there for another meet-up. Hope to see you there!!!
