Plain and simple, Virginia Foxx is a disaster for our district.  Her voting record is embarrassing, seen most recently in her vote against the child health insurance program.  Because, however, her work ethic and name recognition are formidable, especially in a gerrymandered Republican district, it will take a lot to unseat her.  Yet, a campaign gaining traction and momentum before the Democratic primary has a chance to capitalize on the widespread discontent within this district.  Currently, only one man has stepped up to the plate: Roy Carter.  

I know that the election for US House of Representatives isn’t for another two years, but people in the 5th District are already mobilizing and organizing for victory.  Virginia Foxx is a disaster for our district, seen especially in her antagonizing votes against a minimum wage increase and the recommendations of the 9/11 committee, among others.  In this district, it is never too soon to start to campaign against her, for her name recognition and fundraising abilities are formidable.  Among several potential candidates (more on this shortly), I am writing to introduce the blogosphere to Ryan Eller.  

Let me introduce myself.  I am the campaign manager for Roger Sharpe, the Democratic congressional candidate in North Carolina District 5.  Roger is facing one-time incumbent Virginia Foxx.

Today, the Winston-Salem Journal posted my Letter to the Editor.  LTTE's are valuable assets for citizens to voice their concerns to the public at-large.  I wanted to share my letter with you and give insight into the philosophical undertones of Roger Sharpe's campaign.

Please visit www.sharpeforcongress.com for more information on Roger Sharpe.  Take time to fill out our volunteer form and please contribute if you can.  Your support is invaluable in this critical election on November 7th.
