MoveOn.org Targets Wilson, 5 Other GOP Reps.


WASHINGTON — The liberal group MoveOn.org today began running anti-war television ads in six House districts where it views the Republican incumbent vulnerable in 2006 — including one in New Mexico.

The six House districts targeted are held by Pennsylvania Reps. Jim Gerlach, Mike Fitzpatrick, and Curt Weldon; Ohio Rep. Deborah Pryce; Washington Rep. Dave Reichert; and New Mexico Rep. Heather Wilson.

In two of the Pennsylvania House districts, a Democratic Iraq War veteran has filed to run in the race.
"These are districts where the incumbent doesn't support an exit strategy to bring the troops home and the challenger does,'' said Tom Matzzie, MoveOn's Washington director.
Matzzie said the districts held by Weldon, a 10-term member, and Pryce, a seven-term member, were also targeted because they are considered bellwether districts where voters will swing toward Democrats in 2006.

MoveOn is spending $60,000 to run 18 ads in each district this week on CNN. The ads say most Iraqis think troops should leave the country and President Bush does not have an exit strategy, so Congress should act.

1. Heartless Heather Wilson was returned only because ES&S
voting machines subtracted 17,000 straight party votes. We know that because that is the discrepancy between total votes cast in the general election versus total votes cast in local judge races. Democrats swept the judgeships.

She is one of the worst neocon enablers out there. She's kept a reasonably low profile since her overacting following Janet Jackson's wardrobe mishap. You'd think that bare boob had bombed every single monument in DC the way that cow was weeping and shaking with rage! However, she remains one of the neocons' rising stars, loving every minute of robbing working people to fatten the rich while pushing this country to engage in more ruinous wars.

I don't want that cow defeated. I want her humiliated.

2. heather is a bit on the scrawny side
to be called a "cow". that's why she was so upset by janet's boob slip, cuz she is a bit lacking in that department.
