I attended a fund raiser for Morrison last night
I attended a Richard Morrison fund raiser at John O'Quinn's house. The event was well attended and I think that Mr. Morrison raised a great deal of money.

Mr. Morrison is very impressive. He spoke a couple of minutes and was very passionate about his chances. The fact that DeLay has spent a great deal of money and not been able to get over 47% is very good news. Next week Mr. Morrison will have tv and radio ads on next week. He will not be able to match Delay but is going to get some coverage over the next two weeks.

Rep. Chris Bell was at the event and also spoke. Rep. Bell is one of the white democratic representative that Delay targeted in the redistricting. Rep. Bell is also responsible for the three admonishments levied against Delay this month. Delay has received more sanctions for ethical violations than any other member of the House.

Sheila Jackson Lee also attended. She is also very passionate about Richard Morrison.

It would be a great victory for the party for us to send Delay back to Sugarland to his bug killing business. Mr. Morrison is a good man and would be a great member of the House of Representatives.

1. Great news and report Gothmog
The momentum for Richard is really picking up. He can win this thing. All he needs is that magic 50% plus 1 vote. Lots of blogs are carrying his appeal and the appeal for money to fund the Democracy for American ads against DeLay. There will be TV ads flooding this race shortly.
