Bill, Ed, Angie: Congressional update post

Bill

The media has finally started to notice CD6 nominee Bill Winter. From today's Post:

"How can Mr. Tancredo claim to be representing the people of Colorado when he is pandering to hate groups in South Carolina?" said Bill Winter, 6th Congressional District candidate.

Hopefully now that Winter is in the news, the papers will start looking into his campaign a bit more. Especially now that Ricky Lee Jones and the Squirrel Nut Zippers are singing his praises.

Ed

CD7 nominee Ed Perlmutter is trying to stop the expansion of radioactive waste dumping in Adams County. From his website:

The issue of Deer Trail will become an important local issue in the 7th congressional race because of the stark differences between Ed Perlmutter and Rick O'Donnell on the issue and its relevance to Adams County. In an article published in Environment & Energy Daily, O’Donnell is quoted supporting Deer Trail for additional radioactive waste, despite the objections from local governments... Perlmutter is opposed to the expansion of radioactive waste in Adams County and has joined Sen. Allard and Rep. Mark Udall in raising questions about the wisdom of permitting additional waste at this controversial facility.

Perlmutter and O'Donnell will be debating 11 times between now and election day. That's a lot.

Angie

I [heart] CD4 nominee Angie Paccione. I have ever since I met her at Drinking Liberally back in February. But I haven't been covering her campaign against the Pink Lady because there's only one of me. Tracking the governor's race (with excursions into CD5, CD6, CD7 and a few state-level races) is just about a fulltime job. The least I can do is pass on Angie's first TV spot. Enjoy.

We can encourage our news papers to give Bill Winter more coverage by NEVER letting a chance to write a letter to the editor go by. If they get HAMMERED with letters about Bill they will notice that readers are really interested in this race. Any time Tancredo's name is mentioned we ought to be writing in like crazy. Also put up yard signs, slap on bumper stickers and talk to people, even Republicans. It's time to kick it into gear.
