As we said yesterday, all the races for U.S. Senator are important ub 2006. Why? First and foremost, only conservative Senators can be trusted to confirm a strict constructionist Supreme Court Justice if and when a vacancy occurs. Other issues also of great importance are: the War on Terror in Iraq and elsewhere, the on-going illegal alien invasion and controlling government spending to get a handle on the growing federal deficit.
As we did in yesterday's article, we have identified the key U.S. Senate races using the Faith2Action Voter Guide. In addition to the eight reaces discussed previously the following contests are also very important: Florida, Minnesota, Montana and Washington.
FLORIDA
Incumbent Senator Bill Nelson, a moderate liberal, faces Katerine Harris, a conservative. Harris has been villified and abused by the liberal main stream media, which has since the 2000 Presidential Election deliberate sought to destroy her for what they perceive she did to their boy, Al Gore. Sen. Nelson is pro-death, yet he supports traditional one-man, one-woman marriage. So I guess you you could say that he is not half-bad. Harris, however, is both pro-life and also supports the protection of traditional marriage.
MINNESOTA
In Jesse Ventura's state it is a battle between Mark Kennedy and Amy Klobuchar. Kennedy is a pro-life, pro-traditional marriage conservative. Wouldn't be nice to have a right thinking Kennedy in Congress, instead of tyranntical Ted Rex? Kennedy's opponent, Klobuchar, is pro-abortion and against protecting the exclusivity of traditional marriage.
MONTANA
Conrad Burns, the incumbent conservative, faces challenger Jon Tester, who is a liberal. Burns is strongly pro-life and pro-traditional marriage, while his opponent is pro-death and is far more ambivalent to protecting traditional marriage than is Burns.
WASHINGTON
Incumbent Sen. Maria Cantwell, a moderate-liberal, is running against Mike McCavick, a moderate-conservative. Two wishy washy candidates if you ask me. Although McCavick's position is much less supportive of abortion (he supports a ban on partial birth abortions) more protective of traditional marriage, he is at best a weak conservative, but superior to Cantwell, which is not saying much.
To me the more conservative the candidate on these two critical issues of life and marriage the better. Those two issues make or break a candidate. I go one step further and say that it will make or break a nation as well. We may, God willing, have more to say about these twelve Senate races tomorrow.
But we all know Democrats are going to win!
ReplyDeleteIn the Minnesota race you targeted, Kennedy is polling nearly 20 points behind Klobuchar. His negative campaign and staunch alliance wil anything Bush says has hurt his chances of ever winning an election in Minnesota. People realize from his time serving in congress that he never sways from the party line no matter how doing so would positively effect Minnesotans. His values do match those of Minnesota which is becoming increasingly urban as opposed to its rural heritage of only a decade ago.
