Some exciting news from Burnt Orange Report's B-Mail
Apologies for another e-mail this week, but I have an URGENT call to action and then some GREAT news!
First, John Courage and our Texas candidates need your help tonight before 2 AM when the voting in Gov. Warner's MapChangers contest ends. Courage is now just 8 votes away from moving back into the Top 5 like he was this morning. This is worth $5,000 and for that reason I ask you to vote the following strategic ballot at any remaining e-mail addresses you have before 2 AM CST tonight.
1) John Courage
2 & 3) Chris Bell & Barbara Radnofsky
4 & 5) Ted Ankrum and Mary Beth Harrell
John Courage Named National Netroots Candidate
Joining the likes of Ciro Rodriguez, Francine Busby, and Paul Hackett, Texas' very own John Courage has been alerted that he will become a
National Netroots Candidate. Soon to be profiled, Markos Moulitsas of the DailyKos had to following to say about John today in comments that set the Courage campaign abuzz.
"We've got four new candidates coming on the ActBlue Netroots page thanks to huge grassroots/netroots demand -- Jay Fawcett in CO, Larry Kissel in NC, Dan Seals in IL, and John Courage in TX. More info on these guys coming soon. That puts us at 16 candidates. We'll keep adding candidates as determined by the strength of local blogging support and (political) lightning strikes. If you want your favorite candidate added, the best way to make that happen is to start a blog covering the race."
It's because of the support of Texans like you and the hardworking staff at Team Courage that another one of our own is soon to be in the National Spotlight. So don't forget to put a full head of wind in John's sails by making him a MapChanger as well.
