Posted at 9:06am on Jun. 19, 2008 Don Young ($-AK) Provides More Reasons to Beat Don Young

By Erick

We have more information this morning that should give you incentive to contribute to Sean Parnell (R-AK) in his bid to unseat Don Young ($-AK).

Have you heard about the A-Team? That's Don Young's list of lobbyists who, in any and all cases, should be put through to him should they call Young's office.

A number of news outlets are reporting on this and other interesting items from a checklist for interns from Young's office. Young's spokeswoman says the list was not the office's official list, but rather a list put together by interns for interns. Anyone who has ever been an intern knows that the intern generated list is by far the most accurate reflection of what goes on in the office.

Andy Roth references one section of this check list:

Posted at 10:39am on May 27, 2008 Sean Parnell: Even or Ahead of Don Young in AK Polling

By Erick

While RedState was not mentioned, Alaska Lt. Governor Sean Parnell gets a lot of coverage in CQ Politics today.

Democrats have been salivating over the opportunity to unseat Republican Rep. Don Young as he seeks an 18th full-term as Alaska’s lone House representative, but Republicans may beat them to the punch.

Republican Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell stands a strong chance of defeating Young in the party’s Aug. 26 primary, according to recent polls and analysts, which would provide Democrats with a new opponent for the general election.

Sean Parnell is polling even with or above Don Young in the latest polls from the state.

The additional beauty of this is that the Democrats are expecting to run against Don Young. A Parnell victory will throw them for a loop.

You can contribute to Sean Parnell here.

Posted at 8:44am on May 19, 2008 Shut up and save the GOP

By Erick

At some point today you are going to spend $10.00 to grow your waist line.

You know it and I know it.

Whether it is the Quarter Pounder Meal, value sized, or the Caramel Mocha Skinny Latte with the cinnamon on top and the cinnamon roll at Starbucks, or a combination of the two with something from the vending machine, you're going to waist $10.00 on empty calories.

You're also going to cuss about the incompetence of the GOP.

David Freddoso has an article at NRO about Sean Parnell, the Lt. Governor of Alaska running against Don Young in the Republican Primary.

Instead of consuming empty calories and bitching about the GOP today, why don't you shut up and do something about it?

Let's face it: we can complain all day about the GOP. But if we're not willing to put our money where our mouth is, we might as well just shut up.

I've given Sean $100.00. How much will you give? Make your minimum donation $10.00.

If you don't trust the series of tubes we call the internet or you want to give less than $10.00 (wimp), mail a check to Parnell for Congress, P.O. Box 100719, Anchorage, AK 99510.

Posted at 6:24pm on May 16, 2008 $10.00 to start cleaning up the GOP or stop complaining.

By Erick

Just $10.00*. That's what's needed.

RedState endorsed Sean Parnell in his bid to unseat Don Young.

But it's going to take money to do it. Don Young has been milking gobs of money from every dirty person he can.

Sean Parnell needs our help.

$10.00, people. $10.00 to beat Don Young.

Give up that trip to Starbuck. Give the cost of your double carmel latte and pumpkin spice cookie to Sean Parnell. Give up that trip to McDonalds. Give the cost of your quarter pounder value meal value sized and chocolate chip cooke three pack to Sean Parnell.

You people bitch about the party losing its way all the freaking time. I do too.

It's time to put up or shut up. If we're not willing to give to people like Sean Parnell, well then we get what we deserve -- the party of Don Young instead of the party of Ronald Reagan.

$10.00 to clean house. If you can't give $10.00, stop complaining about the state of the party.

By the way, I gave $100.00. You can give more than $10.00 if you want to.

* The post was originally $5.00, but David All informs me that Slatecard gets eaten alive by the credit card processors if they go less than $10.00. If you want to give less than $10.00, mail a check to Parnell for Congress, P.O. Box 100719, Anchorage, AK 99510.

And heck, I bet you've never had an excuse to send a letter to Alaska anyway, except trying to find Santa Claus. So get out that "forever" stamp and send Sean money.
