By Damon McCullar
That's right folks, you heard it hear first. David Harris is exploring a race to take on Smoky Joe Barton up in Tarrant County. David is a father of three and husband of 7 years. He has served his county in Iraq where he received a Bronze star for actions in Iraq. His current gig is Assistant Professor of Military Science/Training Officer, University of Texas at Arlington. Previous to that he severed in the United States Army on active duty until the end of 2002, where he transferred to the reserves. He was called back to active duty in January 2003 to serve in Iraq. He came back March of 2004 David and his wife have served as interns for the State and Local Democratic Party and were delegates from Texas to the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston, Mass.
His website will tentatively launch on October 15th, 2005. The web address will be www.followmetodc.com.
The key issues to David's campaign will be threefold. They are a strong defense, strong families and protecting the rights of all Americans.
David needs 500 signatures to get on the ballot. He is well on his way to that. If any of you folks up in Tarrant County are interested in helping David out, feel free to drop him a line at fm2dc@aol.com or Follow Me To DC, PO Box 1408 Fort Worth, TX 76102.

I'm so pleased that Joe Barton voted "no" on the Katrina disaster relief bill. His slap in the face to the residents of the Gulf Coast - many of whom relocated to Tarrant County - needs to be repeated and repeated and repeated. If we can spread the "Joe Barton hates Katrina evacuees" through Tarrant county, it will leave the door wide open for a qualified candidate like David Harris to step in and provide some leadership.
