Dear DU; Please Help Get Rid of Our Rep w/ Ties to Delay!!

[SaveAmerica]

Hey there everyone, we need help!! We've been working to build up a new party Headquarters here in Cabarrus Co. NC with a main goal to organize our party and precincts. You've heard Howard Dean say our focus in future elections won't be on the hot spot swing states but organizing our party across the country; that sentiment is alive and well in our local party.
Our first challenge is only 10 months away and it is to play our part in changing the balance of power in Congress. Our Representative is Robin Hayes whose claim to fame is spreading the lie that Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11 http://tinyurl.com/apybg, who is a recipient of one of the largest amounts of dirty dollars from Tom Delay http://tinyurl.com/d5a9q, and who promised his constituents he would vote against CAFTA but "changed his mind" at the last minute and voted for it http://tinyurl.com/9s4xm. In other words, he has not represented our district as much as he has represented Tom Delay and George Bush.
We now officially have 3 candidates who are running against Hayes and I'm happy to say that after hearing them speak of their goals for our district, the future looks bright. After the primaries, we will devote ourselves to give everything possible to get our candidate elected in Hayes' place. At first I thought that once people found out about Hayes not giving up Delay's money they would not want any part of that corruption and a would vote against him, after 04's presidential election I'm not leaving anything to chance. We're now focusing on getting as much money as possible to fight this fight. In the past year we've got our Headquarters up and running and just recently finished updating our web page. We have added a paypal account and are hoping that we could get some help to buy supplies that would be used to organize our precincts and find ways to let the people of our district know exactly what is going on with Hayes. When you ask around town what people think of Hayes, they say he's a good old guy and he doesn't have anything going against him. Please help us show them the truth.
Our web page is www.cabarrusdemocrats.org you can check on the link page to read about our democratic candidates. Anything you can give us on the donations page will be your part in our campaign for corrupt-free cash against Delay's Dirty Dollars. We're going to keep the page updated as we get donations to show how the money is being used. This is our webmaster's first webpage, if you have any suggestions for him he's open to them, there's a link there for that too. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!!!!! Please cut and paste this information and send it far and wide to anyone who would like to help make a difference in our future. Please add it to blogs and other dem web pages and forums.

Please keep her kicked!!!!!

4. What do you guys think of this post?

Do you have any recommendations for changes/additions? Do you think it should be added to other democratic forums (or this one for that matter)?

I feel like I'm swimming upstream against the Cheney threads but I've decided I'll Never Give Up.
