RedState & Mark Kirk

"Redstate and Mark Kirk"
""First, let me say that I can certainly emphathize with anyone who can’t donate to or vote for Mark Kirk. To begin with, Kirk is pro-choice, and my own personal pro-life convictions prevent me from donating to or voting for any avowedly pro-choice candidates. Furthermore, it has long been RedState site policy to only endorse pro-life candidates, and that will not change in this race. Furthermore, Kirk has cast a number of other votes (most recently on cap-and-tax) that have infuriated conservatives of all stripes. I don’t believe anyone here at RedState would begrudge our readers some honest objections to supporting Kirk.."RedState

Jim Bunning (Ky.), Richard Burr (N.C.), and Mel Martinez (Fla.) are targets for the ads. ..." from Townhall.com

Larry Hausman Announces Candidacy

Local businessman Larry Hausman will announce his run for office on Monday, January 25th, 11:00 a.m. in the Bowman Field Airport Terminal located at 2815 Taylorsville Road. He will enter the primary race to become the Republican nominee for the 3rd Congressional District and earn the opportunity to run against Democratic Congressman John Yarmuth.

“Over the past few months I have spoken with many Louisville citizens concerned about the direction of our country,” said Larry Hausman. “They are looking for a change. They’ve had enough of John Yarmuth’s extreme left policies and DC’s current love affair with out of control spending. My candidacy will give the people of Louisville the opportunity to vote for a strong conservative and independent thinker who will make fiscal responsibility priority number one.”
