Eric Massa renews campaign, NY-29 |
|
Hearing him speak to a small group is very encouraging. Undiminished in engagement with the district and totally energized big improvements are made for this year's big democratic year. Name recognition and getting stuck in people's minds by the stupid rumors and false branding, Eric seems guaranteed to get even more votes this time against same old Randy Kuhl who has been engaged in a hysterically disingenuous charm campaign to make people believe the exact opposite of his Bushite voting record. Randy's strategy is a weak hang on to the true believers scheme added to moving his campaign headquarters into the urban area where he got trounced. While he is doing that questionnaire wooing inroads are being made into his rural areas where more will be smartly addressed to increase his embarrassment there.
Neighboring gerrymandered districts will be assaulted mightily. Reynolds' more vulnerable district has already been abandoned by Reynolds. Stronger than the 2006 assault, this entire bastion is ripe to fall with great, younger, progressive candidates who choose service and honesty above selling out to Conservative interests.
Massa has the Washington experience of being a defense liaison to Congress, a veteran Naval officer and friend of General Clark, and a recovered cancer patient who vows to make universal health care his first speech to Congress under a vow never to accept House insurance coverage until all members of his district receive the same.
He is a great, energetic, down to earth campaigner, great sense of humor and inner strength. Since 2006 he has remained publicly outspoken(sometimes more than serving members of Congress) on votes, issues both local and national.
Consider making your donation to Eric or others in this upstate region, a onetime stronghold of GOP safety and finance, now under siege by the forces of democracy to reverse the Cheney manipulations that further gerrymandered this area to self-entitled stooges loyal only to selfish outside interests. More than a seat it is a cause to undo an entire stranglehold strategy against all of us. 5000 contributors so far. We need more so the DNC will invest more.

held in Rochester. The news unfortunately covered the Clinton ladies protesting Florida and Michigan issues outside. Eric is an uncommitted SD who refuses to get involved with the divisive politics despite heavy pressure from simply being a New York Dem and a friend of Clark. One of the shames of this campaign is the vicious e-mail he has received from both sides.
