Help Boswell Get Dollas!
April 26th, 2006 at 06:48pm Geraldine
Barbara Boxer’s PAC for a Change is holding an online vote to decide what Democratic candidates for House to help out with fundraising. Last month Barb sent out a fundraising e-mail to the PAC for a Change list and raised $68,000 for Senator Bill Nelson of Florida (challenged by the nasty, nasty Katherine Harris).
Our very own Representative Leonard Boswell is in the running, and the Repugs are really targeting his seat. Jeff Lamberti is starting to catch up to him in dollas, so be sure to vote in Barb’s poll for Boswell.

Why waste money on Boswell? He’s practically a Republican. Dept. of Homeland Security, No Child Left Behind, the PATRIOT Act, the war in Iraq, even HR 4437. And his pro-choice rating at NARAL is only 60%.
If this is progress I don’t know what to say. As a party you’d be better off supporting liberals like Fallon and/or Feingold.

Nicolai, I’m not sure that’s true. Boswell may not be the most liberal guy in congress, but he votes with the Democrats a lot more often than he votes against them.
The Democrats have momentum across the country, and we need to keep it going in Iowa, too. Among other things, Iowa will be an important state in the 2008 presidential election (and I’m talking about the general here, not just the caucus), and having momentum here will be really good for the Democratic presidential candidate.
And whether or not Boswell is perfect in every way, Ed Fallon and Russ Feingold aren’t running for his seat. A pretty bad Republican is.
