Attention Friends,
As we continue to watch the Obamacare debacle unfold, and as Establishment Republicans blame uncompromising conservatives for the consequences of the government shutdown, we must hold our ground! The state of Virginia is currently Ground Zero for the battle for the soul of our nation and for the Republican Party.
Three solid and uncompromising pro-family Eagle Forum-endorsed conservatives are running for Virginia’s top constitutional offices, Ken Cuccinelli for Governor, E.W. Jackson for Lieutenant Governor and Mark Obenshain for Attorney General.
Although most of you receiving this email live outside of Virginia, this election impacts you, and we need your help.
Virginia is highly consequential, being so close to Washington, D.C., and its off-year election cycle is often seen as a political barometer following the Presidential election. In 2009, one short year after President Obama’s sweeping victory, Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell’s overwhelming victory was seen as a no-confidence vote for the Obama-Reid-Pelosi agenda and generated great momentum for the conservative backlash that led to the election victories in 2010.
This year, there is even more at stake!
- Ken Cuccinelli is known nationally as an anti-Obamacare crusader because as Virginia’s Attorney General, he led the fight to challenge the Individual Mandate. Americans need to see that candidates who fight Obamacare win elections!
- Ken Cuccinelli and E.W. Jackson have been spurned by Establishment Republicans as “too conservative,” particularly on social issues, to be electable. We must prove to Establishment Republicans that conservatism wins elections!
- Liberals are at it again resounding the tired “War on Women” drumbeat, claiming that Cuccinelli will take away women’s birth control and that he’s “too extreme” for Virginia. We must fight back against this deceptive strategy!
- Terry McAuliffe, Ken Cuccinelli’s radical liberal opponent, is Bill and Hillary Clinton’s hand-picked choice for this office. McAuliffe, who has never held political office, was the Clinton’s fundraiser-in-chief, and topping a long list of sleazy practices, he was the mastermind behind the Clintons’ scheme of selling nights in the Lincoln Bedroom for political contributions.
Take Action!
Virginia Residents, we need you to get out the vote on Tuesday, November 5th. But even if you do not live in Virginia, visit Ken Cuccinelli’s website www.cuccinelli.com, and share information about Ken on social media. The website has a tool to help refute the lies from his liberal opponents.
Also, it is crucial that the campaigns are able to get out the truth on the radio and television during the last few days of the campaign. The liberals in this race have a significant funding advantage, and they know the stakes. Liberal PACs like the pro-abortion EMILY’s List, radical environmental groups, even New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s anti-gun PAC, are pouring money into this race. We need your help to be sure the truth stays on the air. Click here to donate to Eagle Forum PAC so that we can help bolster conservative efforts in the last few days of this terribly important race.
