Ed Morrissey and I spoke with Rep. Bachmann on the Northern Alliance Radio Network broadcast earlier today - and she stressed the importance of calling the representatives whose votes might be up for grabs on next week's healthcare vote in the US House. Rep. Bachmann notes that while she, Rep. Kline and Rep. Paulsen are going to vote against the bill, and there's no real suspense about Ellison or McCollum either, that we could well put some pressure on Tim Walz (a liberal Democrat in a district that, in a rational climate, would have sent Gil Gutknecht back to office in '06), Collin Peterson (a blue dog from the conservative northwest corner of the state) and... ...Jim Oberstar? That's right - the 224-term congressman from the Arrowhead represents a district that loves its pork, but is also very pro-life - and would not be impressed by the pro-infanticide aspects of Pelosi's novel. So call! Jim Oberstar: Collin Peterson Tim Walz Remember - be polite (because if you say so much as "gosh darnit", the media will accuse you of assault), and that Congressional staffs (and Reps) know that every caller represents 100 other people. |
