Senssenbrenner's Replacement - Bryan Kennedy
Edited on Fri Jun-10-05 08:50 PM by RetroLounge
http://www.bryankennedyforcongress.org/

Bryan Kennedy and wife Heather at a fundraiser with John Edwards as the guest--July 23, 2004



This is the man who will take down Puffy Jim in 2006. If you are really outraged about Sennsenbrenner's display in congress today, this is the man you need to support! He is in a mostly Republican District but it now includes area that are blue! Including my town of Wauwatosa! Typing on a web forum is fine, but we need REAL action. And we need it now.

4. I was outraged by that creep's overbearing attitude...
Edited on Fri Jun-10-05 09:02 PM by ailsagirl
and it made me realize that this is just a tiny example of what the Dems have been faced with since this country was seized by georgie-boy and his merry band of neocons.

I'd say the Dems on this video have ABUNDANT spines. Every one I have heard speak so far has gotten in a jab at this f**ked up "administration." Not just that, they have stood up to that bastard and that's why he ended the meeting. That and the fact that he was being PUMMELED by the truth. He just couldn't take it!! The truth to the rethugs is like a cross to a vampire!!!

This is great!! A number of the Dems have thanked the chairman, without any irony in their voices, for his civility toward the witnesses. hahahahahaha

I'm encouraged.
:patriot:

17. The problem is that his district is the most right-wing district in the
state by far. Most people living in his district care more about their money than anything.

19. So what are we going to do about that?
Wauwatosa and West Milwaukee are in his district now also. They went Blue last election. We need to increase the amount of blueness, if you will.

and I know lots of people out in Menomonee Falls and Waukesha who are sick of Senenbrenner.

21. *IF* you can convince them to vote Dem, yes, you can beat him
Edited on Sat Jun-11-05 11:57 AM by Zynx
There aren't enough hyper-rich people to keep him elected if Waukesha and the near-in Milwaukee suburbs like West Allis actually voted their own self-interest.

The problem is that they *do* vote Republican in large enough numbers that it doesn't matter that the really rich parts of Waukesha County (which you will NOT win) don't actually have a really high population. You also have redneck areas of this county (Dousman, Eagle, etc) that vote lock, stock, and barrel for Republicans even though they are poor.

Making Sensenbrenner actually have to run a real campaign would be the first step. So you need to slam him with negative ads to drop him down out of the 60's.

Even then, the Democrat is going to have to be so conservative that most people on this website will not like him/her and will call him/her a DINO. That's just a fact. I don't know if Kennedy actually is this conservative, but he better be.

18. The is one of the GOP's safe seats
But if we hammer it with grassroots and localization of issues, we might be able to take it with big swing. This is how Labour pulled off their landslide in the UK in '97.

20. Also, look how Melissa Bean won in Illinois
in a hugely Repug area, she took down Phillip Crane who was an institution.

She lost the first time, but kept pounding on Crane until she won the next election.

It can be done.

25. Nice message from Bryan's Blog
"Thanks for the comments. I was at the state Democratic Party convention when I heard about all of the fuss on Air America. This is typical Sensenbrenner behavior. go to a town hall meeting and this is what you get. Go visit him in Washington and this is what you get. We are going to get rid of him in ‘06. Please spread the word about the site and help me fundraise from around the country. We’ve had over 25 on-line contributions in less than 24 hours!!! Way to go progressives!!

Bryan "

26. Bryan Kennedy HAS to win! Sensenbrenner makes
Bush and Cheney look like moderates! He could be the worst politician out there right now. I will definitely be donating to the Kennedy campaign!
