I am extremely disappointed on the way our so called Democratic reps voted on the health care bill.The marginalization of our sisters in the abortion amendment was the so called straw. We need to organize our assets here at Kos.
What I am proposing is we organize by House districts. This idea came to me while reading Nuisance Industry's excellent diary "Contacting Bart Stupak".
In his diary he gives us information on how to contact this DINO and respectfully share our opinion about his positions. I'm sure there are many different ways to contact our reps but some want verification that we are their constituents.
For example I live in FLA - 10 and I am lucky enough to be represented by C.W "Bill" Young (R-Asshole). His guy is the consummate pork puller (in a league with John Murtha), also his guy voted yea for every repuke bill no matter how bad and against every democratic bill. He will be challenged by Charley Justice, currently a state senator and we are currently getting him on the ballot If you happen to live in the 10th district and want to help get on the ballot download this PDF and send if you would like to support his effort click here
While I am not writing this diary about Charlie Justice, it illustrates what I am talking about. Charlie is a progressive and he needs our support and we need to know about other candidates we can support. We need people who can tell us of promising candidates in their districts. We need people who can point us to newspapers in their area so we can write supportive letters encouraging promising people to run
Read Nuisance Industry's excellent diary and you will see what I am so badly trying to say
