When we needed him most, Wynn let us down on the most important vote of his congressional career, and possibly of all our lives..Andrew Kujanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08210430187199177801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306615.post-19814464656803775052007-06-19T17:51:52.590-04:002007-06-19T17:51:52.590-04:00Heather Mizeur did not endorse Al Wynn. She appeared at his kickoff as part of her position on the DNC, which does not allow her to make endorsements. I assume she is willing to appear at Donna Edwards' kickoff on June 30 as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306615.post-27463924050045935092007-06-14T23:02:29.506-04:002007-06-14T23:02:29.506-04:00Al Wynn can hop on a train out of town. He supports (supported) the Iraq Vietnam. Supports the ICC. Supports reinstating the draft. And opposes the progressive change taking place in this nation. And I am ashamed to be loped in a district that includes the Germantown sprawlburg. Donna Edwards is the better candidate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306615.post-79201583221992572512007-06-12T21:21:05.910-04:002007-06-12T21:21:05.910-04:00Read more of Rep.

My District overlaps with CD-4.<BR/><BR/>I'm really impressed with Congressman Wynn's recent leadership on calling for the end of the Iraq War. The sooner we can end it the better. That's what I believe and that's what Congressman Wynn believes.Saqib Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11100497408724939664noreply@blogger.com
