BLUNTLY PUT: CANDIDATES NEED YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT

In recent months patriots around the country banned together and supported candidates like Doug Hoffman and Scott Brown.  People knew if everyone just donated whatever amount they could afford, it would have a great impact. And so it did, Hoffman came real close and it made a statement and Brown won thanks to patriots around the country.

Here in Michigan we have several candidates that are true conservatives, two of which will be endorsed by Independence Caucus. http://www.icaucus.ning.com/ .They are Robert Palmer who is running for the 31st Senate seat and the other is Steven Mobley who is running for the 62nd house seat.   Both are citizens that are tired of the way things are run in Lansing.  They know what is wrong and are willing to do what it takes to help fix Michigan. They both have the desire and will to run, they are gathering grassroots support, but what both are lacking are enough funds to run effective campaigns against well funded democats.

We all seem to be willing to help with candidates' campaigns by going door to door etc, but we also need to help financially.  Most people don't realize just how much a typical state campaign can cost.  They can run on an average between $100,000 to $ 150,000.  Thousands of pieces of literature, ads, postage to name just a few add up to lots of money.  That's why if you read this, please help these candidates out.  Any amount you can afford,  Hundreds of $ 5, 10, or 25 will add up quickly.  President Obama received millions of $ 5 contributions, look where it got him.  We can do better than that. Candidates benefit the most from direct contributions.
