The House Races that Need Money (Small list)

These are Three Races that CQPolitics has listed as LEANS REPUBLICAN where the Democrats could really use some funds. In CT-05 Heavy Incumbant Nancy Johnson has the largest money lead in the competitive CT races. In OH-15 Deborah Pryce holds a 2-1 money lead over Mary Jo Kilroy. In PA-10 Don Sherewood also holds a 2-1 Money lead over Chris Carney. For exact money figures about the races click here

In the First race we have CT-05 Rep Nancy Johnson vs. Christopher Murphy. I have previously blogged about this race and consider it to be my key race this year. This is because during the 2004 election cycle my grandparrents invited me to a fundraser for Rep Johnson at their house. I was never so appalled in my life. At the time I was 14 years old and was perhaps the only person other then my Grandparrents and my Mom to consider themselves Democrats. Her press advisor and I were in a discussion about something and Iraq comes up. I say that Iraq was a mistake and she pulls out the old "Iraq attacked us" excuse for the invasion. The only reply I know at the time is "Iraq did not attack us, al-Qaida atacked us." She does not  have a responce and is quick to change the subject. (Sorry for that tangent)

Anyway back on topic, Johnson was targeted by Moveon.org's red handed ads. . This might be the year to take her down. She has a 2-1 money lead, the most of any Non-Democratic Incumbent in CT. Christopher Murphy, the Chalenger is a rising star and her strongest non-incumbent opponent yet. (Johnson faced Congressmen Maloney in 2002 when their districts were merged) He is a CT State Senator and could use our help lets make CT a True Blue state.

OH-15 Rep Pryce is the Number 4 Republican in the House and would be a big win for the Democrats should we pull this one off. She was also targeted by Moveon.org's Red handed campaign. Her opponent is Mary Jo Kilroy, Franklin County Commissioner. To donate to the Pryce Campaign click here

PA-10 Rep Don Sherwood is week after a primary where he receaved a mere 56% of the vote after his spent less then 5,000$. He had an affair with a women for five years and is getting the politcal fallout from it now. His opponent is a Fighting Dem Chris Carney. He was a Senoir Terrorism and Intelligence Advisor at the Pentagon. To contribute to the Carney Campaign click here
