Aren’t they embarassed enough yet? Check out this post at RK, where Dr. Feder urges people to contact their Congressional representatives. Here’s the basic message from the PhD, with the 1st Congressional District contact: And for those of you who live outside the 10th District, I want your help too! I think we should get all of the Republican [...]

I just got back from a fundraiser/party at Del. Margi Vanderhye's house with Paul Begala for Judy Feder. The evening was very successful, a big crowd (75-100 people?) for Judy at Margi's house - Dranesville District Supervisor John Foust, Braddock District Supervisor Sharon Bulova, FCDC chairman Scott Surovell, and many others who want change in the 10th CD. Margi Vanderhye emphasized...

Of the 20 campaigns nationwide on the DCCC's "Emerging Races" list, Judy Feder (10th CD) is second in both total money raised for the second quarter, and also "cash on hand." The only candidate ahead of Judy Feder is Michael Skelly, a partial self-funder in TX-7. Not bad... "Farewell Frank!" :) More great news: Tom Perriello is third in "cash on hand" nationwide, as he...

CQ Politics moves VA-10 out of "Safe Republican" category. Virginia's 10th (New Rating: Republican Favored. Previous Rating: Safe Republican). As she did in 2006, Democrat Judy Feder is raising large sums of money for her campaign against Republican Rep. Frank R. Wolf , who is the dean of the state's U.S. House delegation. Because she lost that first race by 16 percentage points, CQ...

Judy Feder's son Lester has an article on Huffington Post that's well worth reading. Al Hubbard, architect of the Bush-cum-McCain health plan, compares Americans' use of the health care system to shoppers who indiscriminately buy caviar while someone else foots the bill , just as Senator Phil Gramm exits as co-chair of John McCain's presidential campaign after calling America a "nation...

Repeat after me: IfIcan'tsayanythingnice Iwon'tsayanythingatall... What the heck? Virginians generally are proud of our Commonwealth, considering we're pretty much the oldest State that is currently a member of the United States. And, as such, when one of us runs for political office, we generally take great pride in attracting the support of other Virginians. So this Judy Feder lady,...

... puts it on CQ’s map alongside VA-2 (GOP Favored) and the open VA-11 seat (Leans DEM). Meanwhile, Judy Feder is placed alongside Anita Hartke, Andrea Miller, Sam Rasoul, and Keith Hummel, who just dropped out . Sounds about right. Maybe Mike Turner would’ve been the better pick after all.

Something happened the other day that underscores the silliness of some of the Judy Feder campaign lingo, and also shows just how some really silly stuff is said to raise money. The Feder campaign has through various means maintained that Congressman Frank Wolf is “running scared”…because refusing to take an opponent for granted is a bad thing. [...]
