I'd like to thank all of you for giving me suggestions on candidates for Down the Ticket!  I've added some of them to the list, and hope to post on as often as possible.

In the meantime, Ladies Logic has a great post up on what the author has termed "The Stepford Democrats."  She notes how universally shared the talking points are for several of the Dem House candidates, including Bennion Spencer, who is running against one of Down the Ticket's sponsored candidates, Jason Chaffetz, in Utah's 3rd District.

As is clearly evident today, most of us are disheartened with the current GOP presidential (and possibly vice presidential) candidate for 2008.  But it gets tiring writing and criticizing the bad within the GOP day in and day out. 

To that end, a friend and I have started a new blog to promote conservative candidates.  The new blog is called Down the Ticket, and the URL is www.downtheticket.com.  Right now, we are focusing on 6 candidates for the fall election, and 2 candidates in GOP House primaries.  The fall 2008 candidates include:

- Andy Harris (Md. - 1^st)

- Chris Hackett (Pa. - 10^th)

- Jason Chaffetz (Utah - 3^rd)

- Lou Barletta (Pa. - 11^th)

- Tom McClintock (Calif. - 4^th)

- Lt. Col. William Russell (Pa. - 12^th)

The 2 candidates who still have to win GOP primaries are:

- Rep. Jim Ryun (Kan. - 2^nd) - primary on August 5.

- Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell (Alaska - AL) - primary on August 26.

I am open to adding more candidates (including gubernatorial and senate candidates), so if you have any ideas, please leave them in the comments section, and be sure to add Down the Ticket to your blogroll and favorites.  I didn't cough up $15 for a domain name for nothing.

Our current set of co-bloggers is excellent, but there's a problem, we're all dudes, so its time for a lady to join the team.  I had actually offered this person a co-blogging spot here in my initial search for co-bloggers, but they had just went on hiatus, but I let the offer stand.  She's back though, and ready to post again, so I'd like to welcome,

Mwahahahaha Okay, doubleplusundead's newest co-blogger is... Conservative Belle!
