Independence Day

We will be taking the time this weekend to celebrate our Independence Day; we will be back on Monday with new posts, including one about a new poll being conducted that tests the field for a possible Ciresi primary challenge.

The Fourth of July is not just about fireworks and summer fun; it is the celebration of our nation. Sometimes it seems that we American forget what it means to be an American. We forget what is means to sacrifice. We forget what it means to not just be handed something, but to work for something. America is the greatest country on earth because of our culture, our history, our government, and our people. We should never forget where we came from and what challenges lie ahead; that is why we celebrate Independence Day.

This is one of the most pivotal periods in our nation's history, and this Senate election is a major part of it. We ask you to think carefully about which of the candidates, Norm, Al, Jesse and Mike, is the person who can most effectively carry your principles and ideals to the U.S. Senate.
