Action Alert: Vote for Free Money for Palmer
September 19th, 2006 at 09:53am Geraldine
Mark Warner’s PAC, Forward Together, is holding an online vote to determine which Iowa legislature candidates it will give $5000 (House) or $6500 (Senate). It’s a great perk that presidential hopefuls do this sort of thing in Iowa, since that amount of money really makes a huge difference in a state race.
Please cast your vote for Eric Palmer now.
Eric Palmer is challenging extremist conservative Danny Carroll, who he came painfully close to unseating in ‘04. Carroll has had the benefit of visits from conservative fundraising powerhouses John “I’m a panderer not a uniter” McCain, Sam “I hate evolution” Brownback, Haley “I hate Jews and Blacks” Barbour, and Newt “My conservatism doesn’t need explaining” Gingrich. He’s also received a ton of money from convicted felon Thomas Grabinski.
Just to remind you a little more why Eric Palmer deserves your vote (as if you haven’t heard our spiel before), Carroll is also known for his attempts to suppress Grinnell College students’ votes and his outlandish ideas about gay marriage.
Please take a moment to make Mark Warner give Eric some dollas.

[…] Former Governor Mark Warner (who again spoke with me on Sunday at the Steak Fry) let me know about a new intitiative they were launching on Sunday in an effort to help statewide Democrats get elected, called Change the Map in Iowa. It follows in the legacy of their mapchangers initiative and targets one state. There are amazing candidates who you can support in this endeavor. Hannah at Iowa Progress makes the case for Eric Palmer (a great candidate) and I’m sure we’ll see some cases made for many other candidates as well. […]

I appreciate your efforts to generate funds for Eric Palmer, who is a deserving candidate, but I’m disappointed by your methods. I’ve met Eric and he has a lot more going for him than being “Not Danny Carroll.”

You’re absolutely right. Eric’s going to do fantastic things in the State House, plus he’s just a really chill guy to know. I wanted to emphasize the difference between Danny Carroll’s ignominous fundraising partners and a more grassroots-oriented attempt to get some money for Eric, and as a result I did a bad job of covering the positives.
