Arkansas Liberals Find An Alternative To Blue Dog Democrats

Posted on May 23 2012 by Congress Watcher

Whichever Democrat wins the run off, liberal Democrats in the 1st congressional district of Arkansas won’t have a good representative in the general election.

Does Super PAC Pay Aguilar Family Member’s Salary on Ground Campaign?

Posted on May 22 2012 by Congress Watcher

Even if the two Aguilars are unconnected, reasonable doubts about coordination exist. Voters should be asking what this “ground campaign” created by the Restoring Our Community Super PAC is, and what relationship it bears to the official Pete Aguilar for Congress campaign. What were Cynthia Aguilar and the other “ground campaign” workers being paid to do, other than just being on the ground?

The Respectful Marc Carey on Barack Obama, the Communist Muslim with Pedophile Culture

Posted on April 20 2012 by Congressional Aid

Republican Congressional candidate Marc Carey of Kentucky’s 4th District maintains a political blog called BluegrassBulletin, subtitled “a blog dedicated to honest and respectful comment on the political and cultural issues of our time.” On the morning of April 20, 2012, Marc Carey shared the following thoughts: “Of course you will hear very little about Obama’s [...]

Cecil Bothwell Gains Momentum With Heath Shuler Bowing Out

Posted on February 5 2012 by Congress Watcher

Cecil Bothwell, who is campaigning to succeed Heath Shuler as the representative of North Carolina’s 11th congressional district, has applied for an endorsement by the Progressive Democrats of America.

Posted on January 31 2012 by Congress Watcher

Gary Swing For Congress From Colorado

Posted on January 13 2012 by Congress Watcher

Congressional candidate Gary Swing supports the legal prohibition of war. He seeks the abolition of weapons of mass destruction – including the massive arsenal of nuclear weapons held by the United States. He advocates the removal of American soldiers from all foreign nations, and their reassignment to purely defensive positions within U.S. borders.

Will Nick Popaditch Continue His Relationships With Lobbyists In 2012?

Posted on December 13 2011 by Congress Watcher

The list of out-of-state special interests sending money to Nick Popaditch goes on and on. A central question for the campaign in 2012 is whether Popaditch will continue to depend so heavily on lobbyists and other donors with a profit motive to invest in his candidacy.

GOP Bielat Wants To Replace Barney Frank With Big Texas Oil

Posted on December 12 2011 by Congress Watcher

We name just a few of the many people from Texas working for companies related to the crude oil industry who have given money to help Sean Bielat try to get a seat in Congress. It’s a rather odd pattern, considering that Bielat isn’t running for Congress in Texas. He’s running in Massachusetts, where there are no giant oil fields.

Rob Woodall Receiving Business-Organized Campaign Contributions

Posted on November 14 2011 by Congress Watcher

There are only 75 individual contributions to the 2012 re-election campaign of U.S. Representative Rob Woodall. Six of those 75 contributions have come from Pull-A-Part executives. The chances of this happening randomly are absurdly small.

Rob Cornilles Is Out Of Date On The Science Of Anthropogenic Global Warming

Posted on November 9 2011 by Congress Watcher

Politician Rob Cornilles says that there’s no science that proves that humans are to blame for climate change. The National Academy of Sciences begs to differ. Who are you going to believe?
