Alan Grayson is one of Blue America’s oldest friends, and someone we are always so proud to be able to say we had even a small part in electing. The Orlando area freshman is unquestionably the most inspiring and beloved Democrat in the entire House. I’m not exaggerating. He’s a courageous straight shooter willing to laugh in the face of clownish bullies like Michele Bachmann and Eric Cantor. Freshmen don’t have much power but there is no Democrat anywhere who the GOP would like to take out more than Grayson. He’s the one who always holds up the mirror and makes them– and their corporate paymasters– stare directly into their own vapid, lifeless eyes.
John and Digby and I couldn’t be happier to bring Alan back for another Blue America round here at Crooks and Liars. When we polled our PAC’s donors for who our first incumbent endorsee for 2010 should be, it wasn’t even close. In fact, Alan is the only incumbent on the Blue America endorsement list so far this year. Tomorrow is Alan’s money bomb day. Let’s make sure part of the money that propels him to a second term is money that comes from his oldest and most loyal friends in the blogosphere and not just from Johnny-come-latelies like Howard Dean (above) and Dennis Kucinich (below).
Now let’s repair to the comments section below and find out why anyone would want to have someone as entertaining as Eric Cantor removed from the public forum and, more important, what progressives can do about Afghanistan and about turning Obama’s first step in healthcare reform into the long distance run it needs to be. And, please, let’s make Alan’s money bomb something that old line pols like Steny Hoyer and Rahm Emanuel take notice of. Contribute here.
