Congressional District Watch - An Update

These are great (0.00 / 0)

As a contributor to Walberg Watch I appreciate the promotion that you do. I was thinking that we should not limit ourselves to just watching the Republicans. It would be great if there were blogs supporting each member of the Michigan Democratic delegation. In addition to supporting them it would give me a source to link to show a comparison to Walberg. When Tim votes no on raising the minimum wage I would be able to link to a site that shows what Sandy Levin did and why he supports it. It would be a way of showing how great it would be to have a Democrat in the 7th.

What do others think?

Who's in the 11th? (0.00 / 0)

I keep hearing that people are working on the 11th...well, I am ready to contribute, and I don't want to start something by myself if people are already in progress.  Whoever is leading the way on the 11th WatchBlog, please throw me a bone.

I am new to the game here, but I became a Precinct Delegate, and tried to volunteer as much as possible for Tony Trupiano and Glenn Anderson this last go-around.  I'm looking forward to working with my fellow progressives in the 11th!

It's coming, I promise. (0.00 / 0)

We're working on it.

Putting conservatives in charge of our government makes about as much sense as GM hiring a CEO who hates cars.

Count me in, too (0.00 / 0)

I'm a precinct delegate from Canton Township, and also worked on Tony T.'s campaign last fall.

Sorry for being a little late to the party but I had a December 31 book deadline, followed by a series of smaller projects that got backlogged while I finished the manuscript.

By the way, if you have a spare minute today, call Thaddeus McCotter's office to express your concern over President Bush's imminent announcement of further escalation of the Iraq war. The phone number for McCotter's
D.C. office is 202-225-8171, and the number for his district office in Livonia is 734-632-0314.

I understand... (0.00 / 0)

We just see the others getting attention, and are excited to start beating up on that guitar-playing weasel who (mis)represents us!  I just fixed my computer at home, so I plan on putting some things together for the eventual arrival of the CD11 blog.

Thanks for the work you are doing...I will try and contain my excitement!
