AP - Powell - Cantor Breaking News

Dear Friend,

The AP ran a story today indicating that Eric Cantor has agreed to face off in a debate with Wayne Powell. The story, was picked up by news outlets nationwide, reported that this is first time since 2002 that Cantor has been forced into a debate by a challenger.

The story shows that Eric Cantor has a tough reelection fight against Wayne Powell. A donation today of $50 would help keep Eric Cantor in the hot seat.

Sincerely,

Christian RickersGeneral Manager

Romney is an aristocratic hollow man with NO convictions. Ryan and Cantor have beliefs and someday want to acton them.

I donated to Grayson already today, and will try to get even a small donation in to Powell.

it's the first time Cantor has been backed up enough to agree to a debate. Rick Perry in Texas would never debate his opponents for Gov..and now the world knows why.

Edit: spelling

that someone in cantor's office was watching numbers, and went, 'jesus christ. this guy raised $2k online in one day!'
take a bow, folks. even if we were just a tiny bit of it- rivers are made of raindrops.
