Hurry - Contact Your State Legislator About Changes that Need to Be Made

.
Being elected to Congress or the State Legislature is a wonderful and exciting opportunity, but it brings with it heavy responsibility.

With the pressures today's seat holders carry, it would be much easier to submit to what seems most popular rather than what is truly best. I pray that our legislators remember their constituents and what is their real needs are.

The proper care of all constituents is an extremely heavy responsibility and one that I admit I am grateful I don't have to carry. It's all too easy when under stress to give up, give in and just let something slide.

Hurry now, if you haven't already, and contact your US Senator, Congressman, and State Legislator about the issues that are very important to you. They are putting bills together right now for the 2009 legislative sessions. They need to hear from you. Some states only allow their legislators to submit a certain number of bills. Make sure that your bill is one of them.

Palin Made the Difference for Sen. Saxby Chambliss

.
Georgia Senator Saxby Chambliss told FOX News that Governor Sarah Palin put him over the top to win his Dec. 2nd runoff.


Soon after winning back his U.S Senate seat, Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss credited Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin with firing up the base and helping him win. “I mean, I can't overstate the impact she had down here,” Chambliss told Fox News Wednesday morning. “When she walks in a room, folks just explode. And they really did pack the house everywhere we went. She's a dynamic lady, a great administrator, and I think she's got a great future in the Republican Party.”

Chambliss had asked Governor Palin to join him for four rallies across the Georgia. She was his "closer," campaigning in Augusta, Savannah, Perry and Atlanta on Monday, Dec. 1st. He said that her star status is definitely not diminishing within the party.

He also thanked McCain and the other Republicans that came to Georgia, but said campaign appearances by Palin made the biggest impact. He said."Sarah Palin came in on the last day, did a fly-around and, man, she was dynamite. We packed the houses everywhere we went. And it really did allow us to peak and get our base fired up,"

Palin drew adoring crowds during her campaign for vice president. Her name at GOP rallies drew louder cheers than McCain's. She came away from the 2008 election very popular with the conservative base, getting book offers and countless interview requests. Websites and organizations supporting her have blossomed all over the internet in the last month.

Jim Martin, Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss' challenger for the Georgia Senate seat Martin's campaign on Tuesday got Al Gore's 2000 presidential campaign manager to stump for him on Monday.

Martin had asked Obama to campaign with him but was turned down. Instead, Obama recorded a radio ad and phone calls for Martin.

Because of Senator Chambliss' victory, Democrats do not have a 60-seat filibuster-proof majority. At least there's that!

Want Crime? Elect a Democrat Mayor -

Interesting crime statistics from CQPress.com... In order, here are the 15 most crime-ridden cities for 2008:

1 New Orleans, LA
2 Camden, NJ
3 Detroit, MI
4 St. Louis, MO
5 Oakland, CA
6 Flint, MI
7 Gary, IN
8 Birmingham, AL
9 Richmond, CA
10 North Charleston, SC
11 Cleveland, OH
12 Baltimore, MD
13 Miami Gardens, FL
14 Memphis, TN
15 Youngstown, OH

"What do all these cities have in common? No Republican mayors. 13 Democrats, 1 Green Party and 1 Independent.

"What do most of them have in common? Democrats have controlled them for all or most of the last 50 years.

"I eyeballed the rest of the list. If you go down to number 33, I'm guessing there are no more than five current or recent Republican mayors.

"If you look at the areas with the least crime, you see tons of Texas cities and all the conservative parts of California and New York.

"Any lessons to be learned here? Of course not. These places have all had 50+ years to learn the lessons. They are obviously not capable of doing so. Who says we don't get the government we deserve?"

Comment from Midwest Voting Mom; How many of these big cities are blue on the U.S. map of how counties voted the 2008 election? These cities have larger populations than the rural areas of their states. So they decided the election. That doesn't mean that they're very bright.

Moveon.org Members Demonstrate Love and Patience with Each Other

.
At an Upper Eastside Manhattan get-together, Moveon.org members show the rest of us how to work together with patience and congeniality.



Again, look at the election map showing how Obama won most of the big cities, populated by these people, and McCain won most of the US counties, populated by other Americans.

There may be more of these type of people in the big cities then there are other people in the rural counties. But as these people in the big cities appear to want to dominate the rest of us, believing that they truly know better than the rest of America as to what is right and wrong, it would be very important to see that they are able to perform their superior functions with maturity and grace.

Interesting to see how they attempt to dominate even each other, unable to even apologize to another human for using foul language, etc. Normal social graces of the past don't appear to be evident on the Upper east side. If this is common behavior among their group, it's no wonder they can't understand a woman like Sarah Palin. It's no wonder they assume the worst of her - they don't have a lot of experience with people of Sarah's character.
