Went to several democratic party functions this past week, the democrats Party for the Party, the Tarrant County Democratic Senatorial Convention, and a meeting of the Southwest Democrats. Lots of verbal support, but no money coming in yet.

Read where the President supports extending low interest rates on student loans. I support that and hope legislation to that effect passes in both houses of Congress. If elected I will always support aid for our college students. Education is job 1.Will watch to see how Kay votes.

Back in Texas and ready to rock. Attended the Democrats Party for the Party last night. Chairman Maxwell never even thought to recognize Congressional candidates, let alone introduce them. Way to go Max! Got to meet Jim Wright. Excellent.  Kay Granger voted for tax break for the wealthy, supporting a 20% reduction in taxes to corporations that employ under 500 people, like 99% of all businesses in the country. That's great for really small business, but just another tax giveaway to larger wealthier corporations. Who is going to pay for all lost revenue? Most likely food stamp recipients and seniors. And about those food stamp recipients. Thanks to Republican policies under the Bush administration the middle class is shrinking. While some are moving into higher income brackets, most are moving down into lower brackets, hence the increase in food stamps. So lets penalize these folks even more, at least so say Republicans in Congress. Come on, people. Let's get rid of these guys. That means you, Kay Granger.
