Christopher Dodd

Spring of 2009 Senator Christopher Dodd of Connecticut was brought into the limelight with his participation in the AIG bailout bonus scandal.

Ben Nelson

UPDATE: Ben Nelson has joined a whole host of others who have sold their vote against the wishes of those who elected them.  If you’re for the “government option” for health care, he’s sold you out.  If you’re against government intrusion in our health care system, he’s sold you out.  It’s time to not reelect [...]

Thanksgiving Reflections

The post below is attributed to Senator Bob Bennett, Utah – R.  It was forwarded to us and we have posted it post Thanksgiving.   If the source isn’t correct, we are happy to correct it.

New Jersey Term Limit Victory

We salute the citizens of New Jersey for doing the right thing and term limiting Governor Jon Corzine from another term in office.  Corzine had been the CEO of Goldman Sachs and has ties to Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson.  Unpopular from the beginning, he’s fought an uphill battle to win the hearts of the citizens [...]

Olympia Snow

UPDATE – 10/13/09 : Olympia Snow breaks ranks and votes the Backus health care reform bill out of committee. Clearly, she’s not only out of step with her party, but the majority of the US population and most likely her own constituents.

Last week (Feb. 13, 2009), three republican senators broke with their party and “negotiated” with the democrats to help pass the massive $800,000,000,000 “stimulus” package. For their courage we present their names for you to not re-elect. Three term republican Senator Olympia Snow was one of them.

Eric Massa

The health care town hall meetings have provided lots of fodder for those who are concerned about their representatives. New York Congressman Eric Massa has added to the pile with his on camera admission that he would vote against the interests of the voters in his district.

David Scott

Nothing gets up the ire of a congressman more than being challenged on their positions. I’ve personally seen this when I’ve sent letters to my representatives. Watch this video of Congressman David Scott not being able to deal with being challenged.

Senate Week

In honor of the Senate judiciary committee hearings for Sonia Sotomayor, we’re going to be featuring the members of the judiciary committee up for reelection in 2010.

Roland Burris

July 13, 2009 – UPDATE: Roland Burris has announced he will not run for reelection. This is great news! Hopefully, he’ll go back to private life and find success there… Roland Burris wasn’t elected, so technically, he can’t be reelected to his Illinois senate seat. He was appointed by impeached Rod Blogovich to fill President Barack Obama’s vacant seat.
