Subject: Key Races Remain Toss Ups

Dear Stan,Last week the Take America Back 2010 Roadshow continued to
the spread the message of the Tea Party movement in Nevada and
Pennsylvania, two crucial battleground states in the upcoming midterm
elections.On Tuesday, over 50 people joined Philadelphia Tea Party
Patriots as they hosted FreedomWorks Chairman Dick Armey and I at
their GOTV rally for FreedomWorks PAC Champion of Freedom Pat Toomey.
Armey spoke about the importance of this election cycle while I
focused on how grassroots activism must remain strong beyond November
to enact institutional change in Washington.Ana and Anastasia from
Kitchen Table Patriots spoke about upcoming school choice initiatives
in Pennsylvania and FreedomWorks Campaign Manager Nan Swift discussed
the "No Lame Duck" petition to stop Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid from
forcing more of their big government agenda through Congress after the
November elections.On Thursday, Russ Walker and David Spielman of
FreedomWorks PAC met with activists in Las
Vegas and organized Get Out the Vote efforts for Champion of Freedom
Sharron Angle. Angle's close race against Democratic Senate Majority
Leader Harry Reid has created an impressive groundswell of grassroots
support in Nevada. See where the roadshow has been <a
href="http://www.freedomworks.org/gallery/take-america-back-2010-roadshow">here</a>.Angle
and Reid recently squared off in a televised debate in which both the
<a href="http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/campaign/124435-angle-wipes-out-reid">national
media</a> and the <a
href="http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/oct/15/reid-lost-debate-angle/">Las
Vegas Sun</a> declared Angle to be the winner. Despite this great
news, polls indicate that this crucial race is <a
href="http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2010/senate/nv/nevada_senate_angle_vs_reid-1517.html">still
a statistical tie</a>.In Washington, our Champion of Freedom Dino
Rossi faces a tight Senate race as well. In his recent debate with
incumbent Democrat Patty
Murray, she <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39684941/ns/politics-decision_2010/">confidently
told the audience</a> how she helped write the government takeover of
healthcare known as Obamacare.Murray, an infamous pork-barrel spender
from the Appropriations Committee has been in the United States Senate
since 1993. Her spendthrift ways have been predictably rewarded by the
liberals in power, as she now occupies the fourth-highest leadership
position in the Democratic Senate caucus. Dino Rossi, who trails
Murray by three points, represents a key win for fiscal conservatives
this year.Recent general polls about the Tea Party movement tell an
interesting story as well. <a
href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/09/30/fox-news-poll-voters-use-midterm-elections-send-message-white-house/">70
percent of Americans</a> and an incredible 49 percent of Democrats
support the ideals of the Tea Party movement and overall one third of
likely voters <a
href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-10-14/tea-party-s-economic-gloom-fuels-republican-election-momentum-poll-says.html">say
they are Tea Party supporters</a>.These polls are evidence that the
Tea Party movement is not only in the center of the American political
spectrum, but more importantly, that we are winning the battle of
ideas. BUT we still need your help to win the battle on the ground by
<a href="http://pac.freedomworks.org/freedomworks-pac-gotv-phone-bank-operators">making
calls to undecided voters in key races around the country</a>. Thank
you for all YOU do to help fight for lower taxes, less government and
more freedom!
For November,
Matt KibbePresident and CEO, FreedomWorks
