Bryan Kennedy in Top 10 of DFA poll!

[dragonlady]

We did it, we got him into the Top 10. Now we have to work equally hard because a lot of the other candidates in the second round are from large states. But we do have one thing going for us--Sensenbrenner is so universally despised among Democrats everywhere.

Second round of voting starts tomorrow, Tuesday, September 20, and runs until Saturday at 4 p.m. central time.

1. Why won't DFA do the research and endorse multiple candidates?

I don't get this. They are forcing progressive candidates to compete against each other for an endorsement that should be available to all that deserve it. I guess they are trying to generate publicity, but the contest is cold and heartless. If I were one of these candidates I would tell DFA to stick it.

3. I'm sure they will be, as they have in the past.

There were several "Dean Dozen" endorsements last year.

I think they want some excitement in their kick-off.

KENNEDY A FINALIST IN DEMOCRACY FOR AMERICA ENDORSEMENT

Glendale, WI - Bryan Kennedy, Democratic candidate for Congress in
Wisconsin's 5th Congressional District, announced today that he has been
selected as a finalist in Democracy for America's Grassroots All-Star
competition.

"I am excited that, out of 57 races featured across the country, the
grassroots activists chose me to be in the top ten," said Kennedy. "This
endorsement is extremely valuable in a race like mine, because DFA
members are known to be an energized group of people. They could help me
expand my grassroots base even more, and that's something that Jim
Sensenbrenner does not have."

The rest will probably be found at his website, www.bk2006.org

6. Great news.

We have so many nasty pukes to get rid of in Wisconsin. At least this puts a clear target on Senslessbrenner's backside.
