Anna Little is on the move. Anna's Army is taking the Shore by storm.

Frank Pallone is toast!

I know nothing about her platform or her positions, but you have to admire her moxie.

Anna Little is the real deal. She’s “Tea Party Approved”, earning the endorsement of the major Tea Party groups in this area.

She’s right on government spending, limiting growth of government, obamacare, cap & trade, Life, 2A and just about everything else. You could not ask for a better candidate.

Anna Little’s Motto: “Little Government is Good Government!” - You gotta love that!

And she is putting together a strong ground game. Frank Pallone (D - Lifer) is in for a big surprise. This twelfth re-election was his last! Little is going to win in November.

Highland Mayor Anna Little is a bona fide conservative who beat a multimillionaire RINO in the primary and is breathing down the neck of liberal Democrat Pallone in the general. There is definitely substance to go along with her moxie.

Frankly, it has been a long time since I have anybody explain basic conservative principles with such logic and eloquence. Too many conservatives come off as wild-eyed and hysterical. Of course, we have every right to be PO’ed, but it serves our cause better to talk in reasonable, measure tones.

Anna Little does that perfectly, IMHO. She is going to go far.

I put her sign out on my front lawn a couple of weeks ago...... and it’s still there. I think she’ll carry the day with Monmouth County putting her over the top.

It is good to see the Little campaign making strides in the portion s of NJ-6 that lie North of the Raritan River. There are a lot of voters up here, and they are usually neglected. Anna can pick up a lot of votes here.

We have a physician here in my state who is using this approach. He always has someone with him to take notes, so he can focus on what each household member has to say. I think he’ll win!

The Bayshore Tea Party has been instrumental in putting her on the map. They are such a dedicated group.

It is amazing to me how much power the Tea Party has been able to exert. It makes one hopeful for the nation again!

That's real "Hope"... Not like the canned "Come save me, Uncle Sugar" hope-substitute that Obama is peddling...

I live in Middletown; please put me on any ping list that involves the Bayshore Tea Party's activities.

my 2-man team from Connecticut does 800 houses in a 10-hour day. Of course, we run door-to-door, rather than walk.

we are on sabbatical ... as few GOP candidates appreciate this type of activity ... many of them scoff. One guy here bragged that not one volunteer rang a single doorbell during his entire campaign. The GOP culture is sickening in Connecticut.

I wish her well, but she’s walking a tough road - there are probably something like 200,000 households in her district.

The best move she could have made... but she didn’t reinvent anything, conservative activism has been out there for quite a while, it’s just been looked upon with disdain by many ... until now!!!

It’s been a while since anybody ran such a large ground-pounding type campaign in this area. But media in the ground between New York and Philadelphia is so expensive, an insurgent campaign has no alternative.

That is why we so rarely get change-over in New Jersey. Only incumbents on the take have enough money to run a media-intensive campaign.

so few are active, that when a small team does get moving, results happen. Scott Brown had thousands active in each congressional district. All the wannabees think it just happened on it's own in Massachusetts and that grassroots isn't a necessity. Why do people think that this type of activity isn't crucial? Too trivial?

"How many people can you possibly reach that way?", is a typical reaction I get from GOP folks. (I recall doing 800 houses as part of a 2-man team in a 10-hour day ... and another day when we did 1900 flyers without ringing doorbells. And we did 1000 windshield flyers one evening at WalMart, Lowe's, etc.) I have stopped until I again find a campaign that values People Power.
