Al Weed for Congress
Brian April 25th, 2006
Looks like a safe bet now that Al Weed will be challenging Democrat turned Republican Virgil Goode this year.
From the Weed campaign:
Al Weed picked up seventy-two of 113 delegates Monday night and moved to within four delegates of the Democratic nomination to run for Congress against Virgil Goode. Weed supporters turned out in droves all across the district and nearly cinched the nomination for the Nelson County farmer by pushing his overall delegate count to 97.
To be fair, I have never heard what went wrong in 2004, and I know it often takes two tries to beat an incumbent, even one like Goode, but I hope Weed has used the last two years to build on his previous effort. Democrats really need to hit Goode hard while he is weak.
And weak he is!! I hope he’s rejected by the voters before he’s indicted. I endorsed Al on Down With Tyranny today. Oddly, when I opened an ACT BLUE page for contributions to his campaign, I realized no one had done that previously. Please let your readers know that all ACT BLUE funds go directly to Al’s campaign and that they can donate any amount– no matter how small– through the DWT Act Blue Page. Thanks!

Actually, I think you just did.
