Rep Doolittle Targeted
Republican John Doolittle in my opinion is vulnerable come 2006. His Democratic challenger is Retired Air Fore Veteran Charles Brown. Doolittle represents the 4th district which reaches from South Lake Tahoe to Modoc County. He was featured on kos the other day as a fighting dem. Anyone else think we can win this one?

1. Charlie Brown will have appeal in a district that has ..
a large retired military population especially when the public makes the connection between DeLay and Doolittle. All he needs is money, and as they say, money donated now has three times the value of money received closer to the midterm election. Please visit http://www.brown4congress.org and help him NOW.


Good Grief! Charlie Brown Takes on Doolittle


Lt. Colonel Charles Brown Officially Announced he's Running for Congress in CA's 4th District

<snip>

Charlie Brown will take on Republican John Doolittle in one of the most
conservative districts in Northern California. Lt. Colonel Brown is
the Paul Hacket of California -- both are veterans who are against the
war in Iraq. Paul nearly knocked out a Republican challenger in one of
the most Republican districts in Ohio. The 4th district of California
does not have as much Republican registration as does Hacket's
district, but it does have 48.14% Republicans as of February 2005 and a
large number of Decline to State, independent voters.

It seems that there may be a perfect storm in the works for Boss
Doolittle who is number 6 in charge of the Republican House of
Representatives. Boss Doolittle is a big contributor and Supporter of
Tom Delay who has been twice indicted. Doolittle was one of Newt
Gingrich's gang of six neocon extremist congressmen who hatched the
contract with America. They have turned out to be among the most
corrupt and Doolittle has broken that contract by not accepting term
limits, voting for massive deficits and accepting banned political
favors.

<snip>

The time is ripe for change and support is building for
Lt. Colonel Brown, a long term Sierra Club and ACLU member. Grassroots
volunteers from red and blue counties are making this change. If we
can elect Brown, the people can certainly take back their House of
Representatives and the rest of our government. Many of you may have
heard of Charlie Brown during our exploratory phase. We have met the
goals that we needed to reach during that phase and we are now set to
launch our campaign in which we hope to bring together Democrats,
Greens, Libertarians, independent
