Even knowing some of his negatives positions and voting record, the Press endorses Frank LoBiondo for Congress. That's unfortunate because at this time we need a representative who will put people before the Bush agenda.
Karl Rove instructs Republicans to “stay on message”, but a Democrat who does so is accused of speaking in “generalities or party-line platitudes.”
The Press says Viola Thomas-Hughes is not as knowledgeable, perhaps because for 12 years LoBiondo has been educated at our expense. And although she may be less polished as a speaker, we know her votes will benefit constituents rather than special interests.
LoBiondo has a $2.5 million war chest, she has about $10,000, he has paid staff in Washington and New Jersey, Thomas-Hughes has a few dedicated volunteers. It's almost impossible for an average American to run for office; however, this year people are angry and disgusted with long term “servants” who have become entrenched in Washington.
This year everyone must vote to send Thomas-Hughes to Washington to better represent “we the people.” |
