Friends, I am announcing today my run for Michigan's Third District Congressional seat as a Democrat. Please see my campaign website, patmilesforcongress.com for more information and an announcement video. I need and appreciate your prayers, support, and help. Thank you!
This is Vern Ehler's current seat. Make no mistake, it's a long shot in 2010, but Pat is a very impressive individual and with funding and the proper climate, he can win. There are three Republicans currently battling it out -- Teapublican State Representative Justin Amash, State Senator Bill Hardiman, and former County Commission chair Steve Heacock. Amash (Tea) and Heacock (Establishment) are the front-runners, with Terri Lynn Land still able to dump Bouchard and run for the seat she's always wanted. With a crowded primary, Amash is more likely to win and he is the most beatable of any Republican, either in 2010 or 2012. Go get em Pat!
