With your contribution today, we will show Bob Ney and the Washington insiders that the heat is on. During the last 10 days our campaign website has featured the top 10 reasons why we need a change in Washington. Today, we bring you reason number one.

Reason 1: Isn't it obvious?
Zack Space:
- "I pledge to fight tooth and nail against the corporate interests and those in Congress who wish to privatize Social Security."
- At age 6, Zack Space's son was diagnosed with Type I diabetes. Like so many others that must deal with this dreadful disease, Zack's family has struggled with the fears, concerns, and frustrations associated with diabetes. It is this struggle that has played an important role in developing his strong advocacy for embryonic stem cell research.
- "Big companies are getting tax breaks to send jobs overseas, families can't afford good health insurance, and gas prices continue to rise. Bob Ney talks a good game about fiscal discipline, but the numbers don't lie. At a time when working families are being forced to do more with less, Bob Ney needs to learn that government must do the same."
- Zack Space has pledged that as a member of Congress he will accept no gifts from lobbyists, no trips from lobbyists, no meals from lobbyists and will never put corporate interests ahead of the people.

Bob Ney:
- "Rep. Bob Ney... sees nothing wrong with individual retirement accounts to give people some control how the money is invested." [Columbus Dispatch, 7/7/98]
- On May 24, 2005, Bob Ney voted against expanded funding for stem cell research [RC 204].
- Bob Ney voted to increase spending by more than $315 billion while voting to cut just 2% of that increase. The final tab for taxpayers: A more that $309 billion increase in government spending during the most recent congressional session.
- Bob Ney was a "Champion" of lobbyists, accepting lavish trips to Scotland paid for my Jack Abramoff and having a starring role in Washington's culture of corruption.
The difference between Bob Ney and Zack Space is clear. It's time for a fresh start with Zack Space. A Congressman we can be proud of. Contribute TODAY and send a clear message to Bob Ney and Washington's culture of corruption that it's time for a change.
