Regain the Senate Majority!

THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN SENATORIAL COMMITTEE (NRSC) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Supporter,

Thursday I launched the National Republican Senatorial Committee's (NRSC)"Regain the Senate Majority" campaign with an email to thousands of Republican activists nationwide. The response has been overwhelming.

As Chairman of the NRSC I have been charged by my colleagues with regaining Majority control of the Senate. I am writing you to see if you would be willing to help me in my mission. Please ask your friends, family, and co-workers to go online today and become involved in our efforts to "Regain the Senate Majority" at http://www.nrsc.org/nrscweb/e-activists/

(AOL users: please cut and paste the link within the quotes into your Internet browser's address line "http://www.nrsc.org/nrscweb/e-activists/"

Jim Jeffords' switch to Independent/Democrat has jeopardized President Bush's agenda and his judicial nominees. If you are committed to seeing REAL change in Washington, and support President Bush's agenda for education reform, tax cuts, a stronger military and wish to safeguard Medicare and Social Security from the budget-busting instincts of the Democrats, I urge you to support the NRSC today by informing your friends of our campaign.

President Bush has already made tremendous progress. I am committed to ensuring the 2002 Senate elections give President Bush the votes he needs to enact his agenda.

Thank you for your support.

Senator Bill Frist, MD
Chairman, NRSC


Can Senator Bill Frist accomplish much?

It'll take time, but he'll do a heck of a lot better than the blinkered, short-sighted Mitch McConnell, who bears some responsibility for the loss of the GOP majority. McConnell's campaign funding was inept.

Not a chance until Vacant Lott is out. I'll donate directly to local and national Senate candidates, but not to the Committee. I don't want any of my money going to the next Jim Jeffords (ie. Lincoln Chafee, Arlen MacSpecter, John McLame-ass)

Support the Club for Growth! They'll make sure that the money doesn't go to RINOs, and they even challenge RINOs in the primaries.

I agree with you. I'm as big a GOP supporter as there comes, but I'm not giving to that stupid senate committee until Lott is out and until they get those moderate fools in line.

My sentiments exactly...and you left out Virginia's Gentleman Jawn Wahnah.

This schmuck is my senator. Notice the MD after his name? Well Doctor Frist is a proponent of Hillary Care. He has enabled a budget crisis as well as a health care crisis in his home state by him and Fred going to HFCA and begging for Hillary Care continuation and funding. He is as well the sponsor of the HMO liability cap bill or the Patients Bill of Rights as he tries to call it that Bush endorses. I thought this administration didn't believe in caps? He's as phoney as Fred Thompson. Strange also is the fact the Frist family fortune comes from the health care industry.

My sentiments EXACTLY! My family and I give to individual candidates (and we also donated heavily to the House Managers' PAC last year), not to these inept clowns.

The Hillary Watch is ON!

Another option for donations...

"The Club for Growth has begun a TV and radio advertising blitz to attack Senators Arlen Specter (R-PA), Lincoln Chafee (R-RI) and Jim Jeffords (R-VT) for their votes against President Bush's tax cut. The ads will air in Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, and Vermont."

Senator Frist is a Heart Transplant Surgeon. His father founded Columbia HCA... He is no fan of Hillary Care

Sen. Frist is a good, possibly great Senator. We need to watch him as he demonstrates his effectiveness during the campaign to retake the Senate! He can and will make good things happen!!

As a resident of Tennessee who is disabled and long term care giver to the same and lost Medicaid coverage to Hillary Care I disagree. Frist takes a hands off approach except to go ask for more funding of it. It's federal funding so it is very well in his interest to seek accountability for that funding. There has been none in the whole 7 plus years of Tenn Care.

BTW the term for Hillary Care has a new name. It's now Universal Health Care. The Patients Bill of Rights he wrote is in fact just an HMO corporate protection bill. Bill Frist has no limits on his liability so why should an HMO practicing medicine and making medical decessions not be held to his level of accountability as well? If he is no fan of Hillary Care then he needs to take Bush friend Tennessee Governor Don Sundquist to task for keeping the scam going through his second term. He hasn't done that neither. His office will not address these issues. I know from personal experience.

Senator Frist, (or whomever sees this reply) . . .

Do not bother me any more until the Republicans in the Senate REMOVE SENATOR LOTT from a leadership position (period).!!
