Dear Fellow Conservative:
I’m proud to announce the endorsement of Ron Johnson for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin against 18-year incumbent Democrat Senator Russ Feingold.
Ron Johnson is a principled conservative who will fight to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are bankrupting our country. He understands the stimulus bill was a failure, he will fight to repeal the health care takeover, he opposes amnesty, and he will help us pass a constitutional amendment to balance the budget.
Ron Johnson is also pro-life, pro-marriage, and pro-second amendment. He opposes government bailouts and will fight to preserve individual liberty.
Ron owns a manufacturing company in Oshkosh, Wisconsin and is not a career politician. He came to meet with me a few weeks ago on his first-ever trip to Washington. He told me he decided to run for the Senate after the President signed health care takeover. It was just too much for him to stay on the sidelines.
Ron explained that he is running to join the fight for our nation’s freedoms, not to join the Senate club. That’s exactly the kind of leader people in Wisconsin and all across America want in Washington.
A July 15th Rasmussen Reports survey showed Ron Johnson in a statistical dead heat with his Democratic opponent, Senator Russ Feingold. With very limited name awareness, Johnson is already leading Feingold by 1 point.
Johnson has attracted substantial support from grass roots conservatives throughout Wisconsin. In May, he won the endorsement of the Republican Party of Wisconsin at their state convention with 63% of the vote.
Ron Johnson is a businessman running for office because he loves his country and wants to do his part to save it. In a recent column in the Washington Post, George Will said Ron Johnson “is what the Tea Party looks like.”
Ron Johnson is a common sense conservative who can win. He’s in an uphill fight against an entrenched incumbent but I believe he’s the right man with the right ideas at the right time.
If we want to create an earthquake election this November and make 2010 the year of the conservative comeback, we must help Ron Johnson win this critical Senate race.
The Senate Conservatives Fund will do everything it can to push Ron on to victory. We’re going to work hard to make sure voters in Wisconsin hear his message and that freedom-loving Americans across the country support his campaign. If he’s elected, he will help us take our country back.
Please support Ron Johnson’s Senate campaign by making a secure, online contribution to the Senate Conservatives Fund.
Thank you for your continued support. We’ll keep fighting.
Respectfully,
Jim DeMint
United States Senator
