Federal Construction Bids for Me and Not for Thee:  One year ago this past Saturday President Obama signed an executive order that reshapes the bidding process for federal construction projects in a manner that is heavily weighted in favor of unionized companies.

Debt Held By the Public:  Last week, Moody's issued a very public warning against the profligate spending of the federal government just a day after the Obama Administration released its ten-year budget plan that will add some $10.634 trillion to the national debt by 2020.

Tuesday's Senate election in Massachusetts is your chance to tell politicians: "We are frightened and angry about your wild and reckless spending."

So please, look through your address book and rack your brain for 5 or 10 minutes to see who you know in Massachusetts.  Then call your friends right away and tell them to vote on Tuesday.

Maybe you have a relative, friend, or college roommate in Massachusetts. Also, why not ask your friends and neighbors, and people you'll see in church on Sunday, if they know anyone in Massachusetts who needs to be reminded to vote?

You can send Them a message Tuesday.

Concerned but encouraged,

Richard A. Viguerie

PS:  You can encourage Massachusetts voters to cast ballots that will be felt throughout the nation, especially in Washington, D.C.  This election can send every politician in the country a powerful message that Americans are disgusted with corruption, crime, cronyism, and socialism. And if fed-up citizens can win in liberal Massachusetts, they can knock others out of office as well.

By the way, in addition to phone calls, please consider forwarding my email to your like-minded friends urging them to contact their Massachusetts friends.

Washington WIRE - Time for a Tim Kaine Mutiny?:  The normal posture to assume when an atavistic politician overstays his welcome and blows his exit is to politely divert the eyes in order to avoid embarrassment. But when that departing politician is also the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, it's hard to overlook a farewell faux pas of disastrous dimensions.
