George W. Bush and his republican cronies are desperate to keep as much power as they can. Even with the horrible situation with which they have run this country into the ground, the Republicans continue ot fight to regain their lost power and to put McSame into the white house. It will take all of us to fight back, but we can do it.
The way this election system works is by working at the grass roots level and by using every candidate to draw out supporters. Barack Obama will use his vast resources to target voters across the country. Our strong group of Senate candidates will do the same process statewide. So in states where we have strong candidates (Virginia, New Hampshire, New Mexico et al) Democrats will have even stronger operations that states without a tough senate fight. The same can be said for each individual Congressional race.
One state that is being heavily targetted this year is Ohio, which does not have a senate race. Thus, the congressional races are even more important this time around. the DCCC is involved in races in this state where additional turnout will be crucial to our efforts to win the state. One race they are not yet involved in is Ohio 14, and R + 2 district held by Steve LaTourette ( R- values for you but not for me). The candidate in this race is Appellate Judge and retired Lt. Colonel Bill O'Neill. O'Neill resigned his seat in the 11th circuit court of appeals to run for this race. He has strong ties to labor, is a decorated Vietnam Veteran, and is the strongest candidate we have had in this district in years.
