Super Tues
June 6. One Week. Democratic Primaries in 8 States.

Six WesPAC Endorsed Candidates.

Super Tuesday 2006 - You Can Make a Difference


In one week, five of General Clark's endorsed congressional candidates have their primaries. General Clark has also endorsed a candidate for Lt. Governor. Each race is important and several are very tight.


General Clark has actively campaigned for each of the six candidates. Your help in winning each race is urgently needed and critical to success. The Clark community can be a decisive resource in helping General Clark support the six candidates on June 6.


We believe there is nothing we can do as Clark supporters more important than to make sure these candidates get into the general election.


Super Tuesday 2006 - You Can Make a Difference


WesPAC and each person signing this message are working closely with the six campaigns on General Clark's behalf. We need your help today, tomorrow, and every day for the next week.


Three immediate steps you can take toward victory on June 6:


1. Contribute now. We know General Clark has asked you to help each candidate before. The closing week is the most vital. Please contribute what you can to one or more of the candidates.


The easiest way to contribute is to join the Clark Grassroots individuals who are making a difference in these campaigns. Go to http://www.actblue.com/page/wespac and make a secure contribution today. Making a contribution on this page demonstrates the impact General Clark is having on these races.


2. Contact the Clark liaison (listed below) for each campaign and volunteer to phone bank.


3. Forward this note to every Clark-supporter you know.


Please do this today. We are in the closing days when voters wake up and elections are won or lost. Your help makes a difference and demonstrates that General Clark can mobilize the grassroots to help candidates.

2. Hopefully, this will get some attention...
Sen. John McCain cancels Bilbray event

SAN DIEGO - U.S. Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record) on Tuesday canceled an appearance for a Republican congressional candidate who has attacked his opponent for supporting McCain's immigration bill.


McCain, R-Ariz., was scheduled to speak Wednesday at a breakfast fundraiser for Brian Bilbray, who is in a close runoff race with Democrat Francine Busby to fill the seat left vacant by disgraced former Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham.

Cunningham was sentenced in March to more than eight years in prison for accepting bribes. The winner of the June 6 special election will fill the remaining seven months left in Cunningham's term.

Bilbray, a former congressman who worked as a lobbyist for an anti-immigration group, has repeatedly attacked Busby for supporting the immigration bill passed last week in the Senate. McCain was a principal architect of the bill.

In an e-mail sent to the Bilbray campaign, McCain spokesman Craig Goldman acknowledged that McCain and Bilbray "disagree on some of the issues related to immigration reform."

The e-mail reiterated McCain's endorsement of Bilbray, and said McCain's Straight Talk America political action committee would make the maximum allowable contribution of $5,000 to Bilbray's campaign. Goldman did not return phone and e-mail messages left seeking comment.
