First a little excerpt from Bearing Drift.
Democratic gubernatorial nominee Creigh Deeds’s campaign announed today that he has raised $3. million from May 28th through June 30th.
(continued here)
Now I don’t have anything against money in politics — so long as I know where it is coming from. Unfortunately, when given a choice, the Democrats like to keep such things shady and secret (see here).
So what can we do? We have to oppose money power with people power. What follows are suggestions from the July 14th edition of the Lingamfelter Report.
Take Action to Produce Victory in November
Dear Friends,
Well, I have taken a week off for the first time in a long time and I must say, I have had to teach myself how to relax! That said, there is never a break from politics.
And I note Republican fortunes are rising on the news that, according to the Gallup folks, more people consider themselves conservatives than at any time since 2004. I’m not surprised given the sudden lurch to the left that the Obama Administration has taken. Slowly, even those who were his most ardent supporters are now having second thoughts.
- The Government now owns 60% of GM,
- A huge stimulus bill that is not reducing joblessness but mortgaging the future of our kids and grandkids,
- The highest unemployment numbers in 26 years now approaching 10% and will be higher this fall,
- A “Cap and Tax” energy bill that will do nothing to abate so-called global warming (have you noticed how cool it is this month) but designed simply to raise money for other stuff like national healthcare,
- Indeed, an national healthcare program that will put the government between you and your doctor and ration what care you will get as you get older,
- The nomination of a Supreme Court Justice who has her own rulings favoring reverse discrimination overturned by the same court that Democrats want her to sit on, and
- A foreign policy on auto-pilot (North Korea and Iran) while the President hobnobs with the Russians and works to throw away National Missile Defense overboard for silly rhetoric on “climate change.”
Yep, it’s incredible. But take heart. All the polls are pointing to a rejection of the Administration’s liberal agenda and their liberal lieutenants in Congress. In Ohio and Virginia, two states Obama won last year, his popularity has dipped below 50%.
Some say that Republicans want Obama to fail. Wrong. What I want is his far left policies to fail. And as best I can tell, people are beginning to see it that way too.What can you do? Well first, get behind the Republican ticket right here in Virginia of Bob McDonnell for Governor, Bill Bolling for Lieutenant Governor, and Ken Cuccinelli for Attorney General, as well as your local Republican House of Delegates candidate.
Second, contact your local GOP Committee and become a volunteer to help make calls, go door to door, and work the polls in November. You can Google them up or go to rpv.org and find the right contact.
Third, contribute money. You can help my PAC help other Republicans by making a safe and secure contribution on my PayPal cite at http://www.va31st.com/donations.asp today. I know who needs the help and will help them win.
We can win big in Virginia this November. But we can’t “wish ourselves there”, we must take action. Please do so today. All eyes are on Virginia. Show them who you are.
Sincerely,
L. Scott Lingamfelter
Delegate, 31st District
Virginia House of Delegates
In Prince William County, our local GOP Committee is the Prince William County Republican Committee. They will happily take your money, but they will be even more pleased to have you as a volunteer.
In Gainesville, VA, we are fortunate to have Delegate Bob Marshall represent us in the House of Delegates. If you only have time, money, or the heart to support one campaign, please make certain your choice is Bob Marshall.
