I have been calling Congressman Chet Edwards (D-TX-17), represents a piece of central Texas from Waco to Bryan-College Station (Baylor University to Texas A&M). He is a LIBERAL Democrat in a VERY conservative area, cant seem to dislodge him.
Spoke to his office today, and told the assistant was opposed to health care reform, and I asked if they had many calls. She said “oh yes, and so you know a MAJORITY is in favor of President Obama’s health care reform”.
I in no way believe the assistant’s statement, I live in the district, and have not heard anyone speak in favor of the plan, he has had several protests, and the news accounts are devastating against his idea of NO town hall forum.
Help give this guy some pressure call him 254-752-9600 or fax 254-752-7769 (fax for free using FAXZERO http://faxzero.com/ )
Thanks…he must know he is in trouble, trying to spin it like he is representing a majority in the district! He is a terrible rep. that seems to be stuck in the middle of a sea of red Texas).

We need solid candidate

Who else could be top tier in this district?
My dad lives in Edwards district
izoneguy (Diary) Tuesday, August 18th at 7:34PM EST (link)and has contacted him several times about various issues.
He gets the same exact form letter back….
He says Chet is a chunp.
The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
We really need to get this guy.
