It’s time for the final push for the 2006 Midterm elections. In the interests of time, I decided to unilaterally select 9 house races to support and one Senate race. I have also added Jim Marcinkowski (MI-08) as a bonus candidate. This is a personal favor to Larry Johnson (as well as Joe and Valerie Wilson.
My selections are based on the values of Booman Tribune, which can characterized as follows:
- Opposition to political corruption.
Dedication to progressive values.
A commitment to women’s issues and more female representation.
An interest in matters of intelligence and foreign policy.
