Phoning for Jerry May 23rd

Written by: Janet Stromberg on Apr 18, 2006 3:48 PM EDT

A few months ago, East Bay for Democracy enthusiastically endorsed Jerry McNerney as the Democratic candidate for Congress (CA-11) who has the best shot in November to defeat one of the most corrupt Republicans in Congress -- Richard Pombo. Now the Calif0ornia Democtatic Party has also endorsed Jerry!

But Jerry has a fight on his hands that might sound familiar to folks who were involved in the Dean campaign. Despite Jerry's strong grassroots support across the district and from DFA groups across California, the establishment wing of the Party has attempted to undermine his socially progressive/fiscally responsible campaign by running a milquetoast moderate against him with very little connection to communities in the 11th Congressional District.

Jerry confidently calls himself a "Barbara Boxer Democrat". If we're going to take back Congress and stop the Bush agenda, we'll need more Boxer Dems just like Jerry.

Will you help Jerry show the pundits, press, and power-brokers on June 6th that it's about time someone in the Democratic Party stood up for a progressive agenda?
