Faye Armitage also needs to be added to the Orange to Blue candidates list. There are no safe Republican seats this year. True change will come with the White House and the House of Representatives. John MIca is no different than than Tom Feeney and Ric Keller, the surrounding Districts that were targeted. Let's kick all 3 of the Central Florida Stooges out of office. Help Faye today!

This is from Faye-
Having traveled the 6 counties I will represent, I have discovered that people are fed up with John Mica and the Republican Party. That is coming from Democrats, Independents and Republicans. The Faye Armitage campaign will continue to be busy exposing Mica’s abysmal voting record and complete disregard for the voters in District 7.
We NEED to send an Economist to Washington!
Facing an entrenched politician I will need the financial contributions of EVERYONE to beat John Mica. I will continue to build on the amazing grassroots support I have, while expanding our support among some of the heavy hitters financially as well. Though the District is only 41% Republican, with Democrats and Other at 59%, the DCCC has not yet targeted this District, like they did with 24 & 8. Now that I have won the Primary please help me kick off the general election to defeat Mica by donating what you can today.

With 80% of the Country saying that we are moving in the wrong direction, why would anyone vote for John Mica who has been a rubber stamp for Bush and will continue to do so with John McCain? Every day we are receiving e-mails from voters who’ve always voted for John Mica, saying they are so impressed with our campaign that they will be voting Faye Armitage in this election
The numbers, the mood of the country and the excitement over the Obama campaign means we have an excellent chance to send John Mica back to Winter Park to retire!
