Welcome to Donovan for
Congress.
Marti,
John and I would like to thank the 5th District for your support in
winning our primary. My family and I just want you to know how much
we appreciated your vote.
As we
move forward toward the General Election we have an uphill battle.
First
and foremost, I must persuade you that I’m not another partisan
politician. In fact, I’m not a politician at all. Just like you, my
family is hurt by the horrible job done in Washington. Honestly, I
wouldn’t be running for office if Jim Cooper didn’t contribute to
the lowest ever Congressional approval rating. I wouldn’t be running
if Jim Cooper represented the 5th District and voted to
end this energy crisis. I wouldn’t be running if Jim Cooper would do
something about our worsening economy, the price of gas and out of
control food prices.
While
I'm running as a Republican, I am truly an alternative fighting for
the things that the majority of us would already agree on... the
issues Jim and other career politicians are ignoring. Issues like
ending the dependency on foreign oil or fixing our borders so
Americans and legal immigrants alike are safe from intruders.
In addition, bad decisions
coming from Washington have led to the housing crisis which devalued
our homes, sent the mortgage industry into shock, and as of August
19, 2008, has placed this country over 9 trillion dollars in
debt ($9,613,131,267,531.12).
Click
here for the current amount we owe to the likes of China,
Russia, Saudi Arabia, Japan, and others. Career politicians like my
opponent have mortgaged our kids for generations and expect to be
reelected. We say, "Not now, not in 2008!" We want our country back
and it starts right here.
Its About The 5th District Not Which Party
My dear
Republicans and Democrats, I know many of us pull the lever simply because of our party affiliation.
You know in your heart, neither party is the party of our parents or grandparents.
Look around, our country is in crisis. We have
to stop doing the same things and expecting different results!
Now more than ever we need a divided government to prevent continual
government growth and unchecked spending. Now
more than ever we need to look at who's running.
A vote for Gerard Donovan is
like going to Washington yourself and saying, “Enough! We want our
country back."
Please take some time to browse my
website. You will see where I stand on issues that affect our
families. You will learn that the vast majority of us can agree on
at least 70% of the issues plaguing our country and the 5th
District. You will learn how I plan to fight the
waste, abuse and fraud laid upon our door by career politicians in
Congress. You will see very clearly why Congressional
representatives are at their lowest approval rating in recorded history
and how my opponent has contributed to such low levels of
satisfaction.
I'm Gerard Donovan and I'm running for
Congress. Allow me to take your voice and lighten the darkest
capital cloak room in Washington. Please vote for me, for the 5th
District on November 4th.
