"TRUE BLUE NM" PUSH FEATURES BILL
Article Posted on 2008-01-23
Several key New Mexico blogs launch "True Blue New Mexico" push online. Check it out at: New Mexico FBIHOP.
From New Mexico FBIHOP:
About the effort...
"We are in a unique situation in New Mexico. There is an open Senate seat as well as three open House seats. The other Senate seat is already held by a Democrat (Jeff Bingaman). This means four out of five federal seats are up for grabs. In other words, we have an opportunity to make a True Blue New Mexico.
You can do your part by donating to great progressive Democratic candidates at our ActBlue page. So why are we doing this drive now?
On January 23, the George W Bush administration, current and former employees alike, will do their best to get Republicans elected. Dick Cheney will hold a fundraiser in DC for Senate candidate Steve Pearce. He has already held a similar DC fundraiser for Heather Wilson. And none other than Karl Rove himself will headline a fundraiser that same day. Rove will be in Artesia, NM to raise money for the New Mexico Republican Party.
All this is money -- which will come from wealthy Republicans -- will be used to blunt the possibility of a True Blue New Mexico. So what can we do? Show them their $5000/PAC, $2000/person dinners with Vice President Dick Cheney are no match for our people powered politics."
About Bill:
"In the Second Congressional District, we are lucky enough to have another great candidate in Bill McCamley. McCamley has experience in Southern New Mexico; he is a Doņa Ana County Commissioner and a New Mexico State Alum. Lobo fans (like myself) will have to give him a pass on that last one, but only because he has great stances on the issues and would make a fine Representative."
Bill will be blogging about this tomorrow, so stay tuned...
