Gee, Mike. Did That Hurt? It Looked Like It Hurt.

If anyone had any worries that Linda Stender was just going to take what Mike Ferguson dished out and not fight back hard, the new radio ad she unleashed today [mp3] should change that notion!  Ferguson tried to be clever in his ads calling his opponent, "Linda Stender is a Spender" but the fact is that in Congress Ferguson has voted for record spending, record deficits and record debt.

Linda isn't afraid to point this out, or the fact that Ferguson is trying to hide his record behind clever attack ads.  And that gas prices and gas company profits have risen while Ferguson gave tax breaks to oil barons.  It's good to hear a competitor like Linda get on the air early and aggressively.

Click below to listen to the ad!

These ads cost a good bit, so be sure to help Linda out by contributing to her campaign on our ActBlue page today!

Plus, help spread the word by forwarding the .mp3 of the ad out to all your friends. 

You can help keep the pressure on by writing letters to the editor on this and other issues related to Mike Ferguson.  The Courier News is at letters@c-n.com, the Home News Tribune at letters@thnt.com, the Star Ledger at eletters@starledger.com, or the New York Times at letters@nytimes.com.  More local and weekly publications can be found at Dump Mike Letters.

good radio ad (0.00 / 0)
I like it. 


I have to think of a witty signature about Frank LoBiondo

easy way to fire off LTE's (4.00 / 1)
NJ mediacorps has an action page with info on the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 7th, and 12th districts and the Senate race. The site makes it very easy to fire off a LTE to multiple papers (if you so choose.) Email Eddie at the site if you are interested in working on getting an assignment page on the 5th.

here is the link to the Stender page:
Linda Stender NJmediacorps action page link

Here's a sample of the page:


  * Who:
  o Democratic Candidate:  Linda Stender
  o Republican Candidate:  Mike Ferguson
  * Why: If you’re unhappy with the Bush administration and do not want another two years of GOP control of the House of Representatives, New Jersey’s 7th district is the race to watch. Cook’s Political Report did not even have this race in the top 35 last January. It has now moved up two categories in competitiveness. Assemblywoman Linda Stender is the first Democratic office holder to take on Mike Ferguson, since he took office in 2000.

  Key Issues: Linda Stender is campaigning on making healthcare more affordable, funding all forms of Stem Cell Research, trusting women to make the right choices in their lives by allowing them the right to choose, combating the real threats to our national security, including making our ports safer, making America energy independent, improving education for our children, and protecting our environment.
  Talking Points:
  o Making health care more affordable by regulating health insurance and drug company prices.
  o End tax subsidies for oil companies and enact a bold energy policy to make America energy independent within 10 years.
  o Push for an exit strategy to bring our troops home from Iraq.
  o Protect our nation by securing the ports, borders, airports and chemical facilities.
  o Real ethics and lobby reform that ban gifts and junkets for members of Congress.
  o Support all types of stem cell research to unlock cures for Alzheimer's, diabetes and cancer.
  o Fight to protect a woman's right to choose.

The NJ Media Corps endorses Linda Stender for United States Congress NJ 7th District.

You can help.  Write a letter to your local newspaper, telling them you support Linda Stender for the United States Congress NJ 7th District. Use the key issues and talking points above, generally no more than two, in your letter.
