Barry Welsh is running against Mike Pence, Indiana's 6th
Subject: Barry Welsh is a Feingold Progressive Patriot finalist -- help him earn Progessive Patriot PAC funds

Date: Monday, March 20, 2006 5:28:40 PM

Your Organizer (name redacted) sent the following message to the
members of The Indianapolis Democracy for America Meetup Group:

Barry Welsh is running against Mike Pence, in Indiana's 6th
Congressional District. Pence is the chair of the Republican
Study Committee that is responsible for pushing the cuts for
the needy and education, and the tax breaks for the ultra
wealthy. He has voted for torture, against Katrina Relief, and
against funding the troops after voting to send them to war.
It is time for him to go. Senator Russ Feingold wants to help
Barry send Congressman Pence packing. You can too.

Barry Welsh is one of ten finalists for The Senator Russ
Feingold Progressive Patriot PAC. I am asking for your vote in
this online election that will reward the winner with much
needed PAC money. You can vote at:
http://www.progressivepatriotsfund.com/page/s/vote

For more about Barry, visit his campaign website:
http://www.barrywelsh.org

Info about all the finalists can bee seen here:
http://www.progressivepatriotsfund.com/content/373

Again, please vote and help Barry help all of US!

Be a Barry Buddy and help spread the word. Get your friends
and family to vote!

Thank You

1. Pick a Progressive Patriot" Begins Today
I'm proud to announce that today is the beginning of our second "Pick a Progressive Patriot" event. From the hundreds of candidates you've suggested, I've chosen several great Congressional challengers. Now it's up to you to decide who we should support. Please vote for your favorite candidate, and whoever gets the most votes will receive a $5,000 contribution from the Progressive Patriots Fund.

Vote Now!

It wasn't easy choosing just these candidates. You nominated some outstanding people from all fifty states. But these candidates are all running in tough races against incumbent Republicans who have been voting against the best interests of our country for years. As we've seen in recent months, without Democratic control of Congress, we will have a hard time holding this President accountable for his actions, so I need you to help me identify the best candidates to support in our effort to take back the House.

Vote Now!

If you're not familiar with the candidates in our "Pick a Progressive Patriot" event, you can learn a little more about them by visiting our website. They're all fantastic candidates who I'd be proud to support. With the crucial end-of-quarter deadline approaching, please help me choose who to support next.

Sincerely,


Russ Feingold
United States Senator
Honorary Chair, Progressive Patriots Fund

6. Mike Pence needs to live in a rubber room
I will support ANYONE against that self-righteous prick. I feel sorry for the people who live in his district. He is one low-budget individual.

2. Good to hear... will definitely support.
Don't know how much of a chance he is - but across the state there is an interesting undercurrent of political discontent... it could be a very surprising election season.

3. Pence is an assclown
Man, I hope this guy at least stays competitive.

4. You don't approve of his "tough choices for tough times"?
That was Pence's proposal to bring the budget into the black by cutting or abolishing every social and entitlement program under the sun, and without cutting the war budget!

The poor and the retirees would have been the most impacted by Pence's plan.
