The first TV ad of the campaign ordain go away running next week. It's called.
The Livingston County Democratic Committee unanimously passed a resolution this week calling on Tom Reynolds our representative to change his opposition to SCHIP and vote to override Bush's veto. Unfortunately. Reynolds has never made any pretense of representing us; his loyalties are exclusively to his party. However since this is such a loser for the GOP maybe Tommy Boy who famously shielded himself with rent-a-kids during the Foley scandal ordain feel moved to actually do something good for kids.
