Cheryl Sabel for Congress website is up and ...

Cheryl Sabel has her campaign website up and running as she seeks the Democratic nomination for Alabama's 2nd Congressional District. She's clearly a solid Progressive and I'd like to to think she's got a decent chance of upsetting Bobby Bright. I've yet to find any campaign website for him yet considering he couldn't decide on running as a Democrat or Republican I expect little which might inspire me. Bright has openly declared he'll run as a Conservative so I hope Cheryl is willing and able to educate both Bright and any Republican Lite types that try to help him.

She's got to be assertive and take the fight to them. Some earned media and pressing the flesh will be required yet all that is for naught if she's not bold. Goldy at Horses Ass reports Cheryl has joined Darcy Burner and several other Progressive Democrats in pushing A Responsible Plan to End the War in Iraq. dday at Digby's Hullabaloo takes us Inside The Plan.

While dealing head on with Iraq, not just where we are now but also how in the hell we got into this terrible situation, seems like a good place to start. However, I also appreciate that Cheryl is also considering wealth disparities, poverty, our prison-industrial state, universal health care, education, healthy foods, the environment, reproductive rights, economic uncertainty, the housing bubble, veterans/soldiers issues, torture/human rights, the rule of law, etc.

Please show Cheryl some love at Act Blue if so inclined. Thanks, John Gunn
