Joe the Plummer for Congress.

[ConCap]

The Presidency is not the only thing in politics.

Do you have a plan laid out to take over the Senate and keep the house?

I think in the long run this would be as good as if not better than winning the Presidency.

[specsaregood]

You aren't actually suggesting we support the media construction known as "joe the plumber". right?

No. Just making the point you can still run the show without the Presidency.

Matt,

I am in PA, so the Senate race here is off interest to me. You may want to look at Sam Rohrer there as well. Scargini is a great guy but he doesn't have a prayer - way too big of a state and this is his first time at the dance, no name rec, no money and no time to build what he needs (we vote in like 6 weeks or so). One of my local libertarian connections who is involved in state politics endorsed Rohrer when he ran for Governor and said that he would be like a Flake, or DeMint type, so much closer to our side of things than the party backed candidate, Steve Welch.

And this is from the C4L website from a while back regarding the governor race: "Many libertarian-leaning Republicans attempted to nominate non-establishment candidate for governor, Sam Rohrer, but fell short in the primaries."

BTW thanks for doing this list, I was planning on doing it myself, so you saved me a ton of time.

Noted, thanks!

Its by no means complete but I think I got a lot of the good candidates so far.

the rlc.org site is a mess, but if you comb through the elected officials list and do some googling, you can find that a lot of them are running for a higher office than they currently hold.

Art Robinson (http://www.artforcongress.com) (R) OR-4



Art is a decent guy,and we may have a good chance to unseat DeFazio.Gonna be a tough fight though.DeFazio is well entrenched,and well liked.
He has a page that attacks Art http://whoisartrobinson.defazioforcongress.org/
Pretty funny if you ask me.The video's of Art on that page are music to my ears.
If you can spare a few bucks,please check out Art's page,and donate.http://www.artforcongress.com/
