So she can raise $200K instead of a million?
Besides, if she is not front and center in support of GWB, I wouldn't want her in congress. We have enough RINOS.
Oh, I'm sorry. you obviously misunderstood me.
I'm saying bring in Laura and Condi Now! And save GWB for October, when more people are paying attention.
Forget the RNC and the NRCC, in terms of this particular race. They're about protecting incumbents, especially this year. They also aren't attuned to the kind of activist attitude Ms. Irey represents. In addition, the hard fact is that she's running in a Democratic district against an incumbent who seems like "one of us." Many, many voters simply don't go beyond this. The "working" people of PA had no business voting for Kerry in '04, but most of them did. It is possible for Irey to beat Murtha, but there won't be any serious support from the national Republican establishment unless we at the grassroots and the conservative interest groups raise LOTS AND LOTS of money for her. The time is now. If we do our job, the Establishment might come in and help enough to get her over the finish line. But for the time being, the ball is in our court.
I doubt that Condi would be much help in Western PA. She might help in Connecticut or the Chicago suburbs. Now, if she had realized her dream and become NFL commissioner, it might be another story, but probably not even then.
Yeah hes closing quick on Cant{"do anything)well
