If there was ever any question about the REAL CHANGE that is coming, just look at Jesse Kelly, a young Marine who faced a Republican-establishment candidate in Tuesday’s primary and won.
Our PAC, WarriorsforCongress.com, wasn’t listening to the establishment. We didn’t care that the money was against Jesse Kelly. “No, we can’t help him. He won’t win.” That’s what we were told by “establishment” folks when we asked them to help Jesse.
We knew better. Jesse Kelly is a Warrior. We looked at him and saw a man who put his life on the line for our Constitution. We saw a Warrior who would take the Hill with our other candidates and help turn this country around. No more open borders. No new taxes. In fact, push back the taxes. Yes to “we the people.” No to “Pelosi, Reid and Obama.”
“The message is that the voters of southern Arizona want a businessman and a combat veteran to fight for practical conservative solutions,” said Kelly’s campaign manager, Adam Kwasman. “They are rejecting career politicians.”
The message is also that people outside of Arizona believe in men like Jesse Kelly. Our friend, Mark Levin, put his name behind Jesse when the “establishment Republicans” pooh-poohed him. Thousands of Americans across the fruited plains came to Warriorsforcongress.com and supported Jesse and our other candidates, including Allen West, who also won last night!

‘Sarah Palin appeared with Republican nominee Jesse Kelly today on Fox Business. She gave one of the most gracious praises of his candidacy I have ever heard saying” I don’t feel worthy to lace his combat boots.”’
I knew you would appreciate.
You left off Sarah Palin.
Nice gesture. No doubt about it.
She didn’t endorse him. At least not until his primary was decided.
The “establishment” had better stand behind him now or there will be no “establishment”.
I think the RNC is broke anyway, and it wouldn’t help to get Michael Steele involved. Palin, DeMint, Bachmann, Etc. would be nice though.
Nice to see you’re finally on the Jesse Kelly bandwagon. :)
As a reminder, donate to Demint’s Senate Conservatives Fund.
I’ve been on his bandwagon $$ since he first announced.
Way to go! The heck with the GOP, my $$ go to PACS like Demint’s.
Has Demint supported House candidates? I think he’s only pushing Senate guys, which makes sense. But if he’s loaded with $$...
Glad to hear it. He’s an amazing candidate. He’s probably the best guy the R’s have running in the entire country. I only say probably because of Allen West.
Who’s that third one?
Also don’t forget Adam Kinzinger in Illinois.
Over here!
pissant, you’re back!
It said it was paid for by Jesse. Glad to see him get on the ball quickly after the lousy, negative and distorted ads against him by Patton...
Why, that would be none other than the infamous FReeper and Hero extrordinaire ... "Cee-gar Man US Marine"
Nick Popaditch (aka Gunny Pop) CA, 51st District.
A widely circulated photograph after the fall of Baghdad in 2003 shows the tank commander and platoon sergeant smoking a cigar in front of the statue of Saddam Hussein just before his unit helped tear it down.Popaditch, 42, was awarded the Silver Star for combat actions during the battle for Fallujah. During that battle he was blinded in one eye by a rocket-propelled grenade to the head and given a medical retirement.
He announced his candidacy at events in Chula Vista and El Centro. He was introduced at both events by retired Rep. Duncan Hunter.
My favorite Gunny Pop quote, which is featured on my Home Page.
Awwww, pissant's been a Jesse Kelly fan for a long time. ;*)
And this guy in Arizona as well...

Time flies, don’t it?
I don’t think so but I wish he did. Maybe by the 2012 election cycle he will have branched out.
Thanks for that!
Here’s that other candidate I mentioned:
Hoping for this guy to start getting some more traction as well:
