OFFICIAL DRAFT DAN BOREN FOR SPEAKER THREAD
11 November 2006

Posted on 11/11/2006 10:07:45 AM EST by 11th_VA

As some of you may know Dan Boren (Lone conservative Democrat from the OK delegation) is contemplating a challenge to Pelosi for Speaker of the House.

Dan is one of 54 Blue Dog Democrats in the House. Since the Speaker is elected from votes from the entire house, if he could garner all the GOP votes and ~15 Blue Dog Democrat votes, he could beat Pelosi for the Speaker's position.

Now is the time to start the "DRAFT DAN" movement.

Action:

1) Start calling talk radio shows talk about the "DRAFT DAN" movement.

2) Call your representative (Republican and Democrat) and ask them to support Dan Boren for speaker

We need an organic movement to DRAFT DAN for speaker - let's do it !!!

6. Dear FReeps:
Have you not realized all you touch turns to shit. You still do not get that you are being deceived (that means tricked or fooled FYI.)

Stop and think that this is a distinct possibility.
