VA-8 Update: Moran's primary challengers

[goobergunch]

Virginia. Democrat Andrew Rosenberg is leading the pack of primary challengers looking to take on Rep. Jim Moran (D), in the state’s 8th Congressional District.

Rosenberg, an Alexandria attorney, said Monday he has raised $155,000 from more than 500 donors. Kate Hanley, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors chairwoman, has raised $142,000.

“What a fast fundraising start means to us is that we will have the resources necessary to bring a serious and competitive challenge to Moran and that we can turn our focus at this point on the issues,” Rosenberg said.

Moran, a seven-term Democrat, will not release his fundraising information for the second quarter of 2003 until the Federal Election Commission July 15 deadline, his spokesman, Dan Drummond, said.

1. Heck - I'd send a Moran Challenger some money

I don't live in VA, but I'm tired of Moran getting on TV and embarrassing himself and the party on TV. He is a "Moran..."

2. just make sure his challenger

isn't another Denise Majette. A fucking 'puke that fools everyone by running as a Democrat in the primary. She even voted for Hastert as majority leader. Just because Moran has said some stupid things doesn't mean we should let a 'puke who dons the 'D' get in in his place.

3. I am very certain Majette didn't vote for Hastert

only 4 Democrats refused to vote for Pelosi, three voting Present, one voting for another Democrat. Majette is bad though.

I realise that some are sore losers about Cynthia McKinney losing, but why is it necessary to spread this lie about Rep. Majette?
