"Settling the Score" Amazing post from Jim Dean at DFA. Wow.
Ciro is running against Cuellar, the guy who sat with the Republicans during the SOTU. Jim does not mention Cuellar by name, but....

Ciro Rodriguez


"There is a Democrat from Texas in Congress that traveled the country to campaign for President Bush during the 2000 election. In 2004 Tom DeLay's redistricting helped him into a seat in Congress, and since then he has supported almost all of the President's major initiatives. In fact, he was even photographed being embraced by President Bush at the State of the Union just last week.

This same Congressman recently became the first and only Democrat to be endorsed by the Club for Growth. Remember the Club for Growth -- the ultra right-wing organization responsible for some of the most vile attack ads you can imagine -- including two vicious ads that attacked Howard Dean and his "body piercing, Hollywood-loving, left-wing freak show."

You have a chance to fight back and settle the score with George Bush, Tom DeLay, The Club for Growth and their hand-picked, faux-Democrat, by helping elect former Congressman, Ciro Rodriguez, who is fighting to win this Democratic primary next month. Ciro fought for our progressive values in Congress for eight years, and when he goes back to Washington in 2006, he'll stand up for progressive values again.

This is our chance to stand together against Democrats who claim to represent our interests, but go to Washington and betray us. This election is less then 4 weeks away, please support Ciro Rodriguez today:

6. I swear I thought Bush would plant a kiss on his mouth.
Cuellar looks so adoringly toward him.

8. We need to start
weeding our garden. With DEM's like Cuellar, we don't need GOP's.

10. Midnight update: $21,000. Not bad in less than 12 hours.

Midnight Ciro Update
In less than 12 hours, you've raised over $21,000 for Ciro from 550 contributors. By setting our stake in the TX-28, we're putting DINOs everywhere on notice. Let's keep it up! This money will pay for crucial lawn signs, mailings to voters, and media advertisements. It will help the Rodriguez campaign build a grassroots network to take their message right to the voters in the TX-28.

If you live in Texas, don't forget to sign up to volunteer.
