Help Retire Sam Johnson


by: TheDeminator

Tue Sep 21, 2010 at 09:15 AM CDT

(Some fun for those of you in North Texas in TX-03.   - promoted by Karl-Thomas Musselman)

Be among the very first to wish Sam Johnson a happy retirement... and have some fun at his expense. John Lingenfelder for Congress has released a new program to highlight the failures of his opponent Sam Johnson in the Texas 3rd. RetireSam.com is a way to send Sam Johnson your own well wishes that will be hand delivered by the campaign to Sam's Congressional office!

Photobucket

In the last five (5) years, these Organizations wouldn't mind seeing Sam retire. See their ratings of him below the fold.

DFA Allstars and the TX Races


by: TheDeminator

Tue Jul 06, 2010 at 10:27 AM CDT

Hello Fellow listers,

Right now the Progressive powerhouse is doing a national voting campaign to figure out who to support as a Grassroots allstar. For any race that wins it will be a huge bump for the campaign. I urge the list readers to consider helping each of the 4 campaigns who filled out the questionnaire for support and asking your friends to do the same.  Brining the fight to a place like TX - 03 and forcing Sam Johnson to work because he has a credible opponent this year is worth the time to  make the vote. http://www.grassrootsallstars....


July 16th the first round wins, the top 10 then get pitted against one another to make it to the top two.


The TX Slate and standings right now are -


John Lingenfelder - in 18th place
TX-03
http://www.lingenfelderforcong...


Neil Durrance - in 23rd place
TX-26
http://www.durranceforcongress...


Ted Ankrum - in 36th place
TX-10
http://www.ankrum2010.com/


Tom Berry - in 37th place
TX-05
http://tomberryforcongress.com/


Note - Grier Raggio is on there but his votes do not count due to him not filling out the DFA questionnaire


Why this is important?


The winner of the 2010 Grassroots All-Star Competition will receive:


The title of "2010 DFA Grassroots All-Star"


At least one national fundraising e-mail from DFA Chair Jim Dean to over one million members with the commitment to raise $20,000 from DFA members nationwide.


In-state crowd-sourcing emails for volunteer events with a commitment to raise 500 volunteer hours from DFA members in the All-Stars' home state.


At least one national volunteer e-mail to over one million DFA members with the commitment to deliver at least 200 national phone bankers.


A $5,000 contribution from Democracy for America PAC.
Appearances by DFA Chair Jim Dean at available campaign events


Lets help the TX congressionals and put them in the running by voting and asking our friends to vote. It's a major bump to their campaigns!
