Bought and Paid for
I was reading the Deseret News today. I came across this article about the senate race in Utah. Senator Bennett has spent an ungodly sum of money on his campaign so far... $2 MILLION. Combined, ALL of his challengers, republican, democrat, third party, ALL of them have spent $85000. That's compared to his $2000000.
Where does such an ungodly sum come from? The banks he bailed out, the drug companies that he supports, and the rest of the ridiculous special interests that have him bought and paid for.
"Bennett reported raising $398,000 in the last quarter of 2009 — and only 1 percent of it came from donors with addresses in Utah." Here's the source for that.
That's a ridiculous sum of money. 1% came from Utah. ONE PERCENT. There is no legitimate reason for anyone outside of Utah to be contributing!
Let him feel your rage. He doesn't represent me, he doesn't represent you, unless your name is Zions Bancorporation, EnergySolutions Inc, or Pfizer Inc. Don't vote for a man who has no interest in his own constituency's concerns.
Research the other candidates. Attend the Republican Caucuses. After all, everyone in Utah knows that republicans are the only ones who can win statewide. If you don't attend the Republican Caucuses, and make sure he has to face a primary, he won't.
