Who Would Jesus Vote For?

I just wanted to pass on a campaign email I received for Jim Slattery (D-KS). As I wrote about the other Day JIm Slattery has officially launched his Senate bid for Pat Roberts seat. At WWJV4 we will be supporting Slattery as much as possible so look for more campaign announcements and news.

Dear Friend,

Yesterday I announced my candidacy for the United States Senate. It was an honor to have our governor, Kathleen Sebelius, introduce me and come out strong in support of my campaign. To view the video of my announcement click on this link: Slattery Announcement.

Unfortunately, Pat Roberts chose to open his campaign by airing a negative radio ad in which he made cheap personal attacks. This is a clear sign he is worried about the competitive campaign I intend to run. Pat Roberts has no desire to take responsibility for the breathtaking incompetence and indifference of our political leadership in Washington, D.C.

I am determined to focus on the issues that truly affect Kansans. Our country’s economy is unstable, gas prices are soaring, and we are engaged in a needless war in Iraq.

I need your help now and through November to bring Kansas common-sense back to the United States Senate. There are three ways you can help:

1. Join my E-mail List. You can do so by visiting my website www.slatteryforsenate.com

2. Make a monetary donation. The reality of modern politics is that my campaign will need money to respond to Pat Roberts’ negative ads. Any amount you can give is valuable and appreciated. Donate online now by clicking here: Contribute!

3. Forward this e-mail to five friends. Invite them to view my announcement and join our campaign.

Rarely is the contrast on the key issues as clear as it is between Pat Roberts and myself. I look forward to seeing you in person and hearing your ideas as I campaign across the state in the coming months!

Thanks for your friendship,

Signature
Jim Slattery

I have to say that while I am excited about the Slattery campaign I am a little concerned about this email. There were several errors, broken links, and usability problems and overall it feels rushed. I’m sure that this is just part of the growing pains of a new campaign so they get a pass with this one.

I strongly recommend getting as involved with this campaign as possible because Jim Slattery is the type of politiican that can bring the needed changes to both Kansas and Washington. If you live outside Kansas then get involved in your local politics. Democrats cannot afford to sit back and wait for someone else to make the needed changes anymore.

Thanks,

Jim Slattery has officially launched his campaign to seek the US Senate position currently occupied by Republican Pat Roberts. I feel really good about Jim Slattery. He has a good record and strong support here in Kansas and I strongly believe that he has a chance to beat Roberts. It has been a long time since Kansas sent a Democratic Senator and now is absolutely the right time to do so.

Important Links

• Slattery’s Campaign Website
• Slattery’s ActBlue Page (psst! … Make a donation)
• Jim Slattery’s Facebook
• Jim Slattery on Myspace
• Jim Slattery on YouTube

If you live in Kansas and can I highly suggest that everyone donate time and/or money to this campaign. Slattery is already off to a very strong start in contributions but it will take more than that to beat Roberts. I will try to keep this website updated as much as possible on the campaign.
