Stephanie Studebaker ( www.studebakerforcongress.com )is running against a Rubber Stamp Appropriations Committee member, (Mike Turner R.) in the 3rd District of Ohio.
This includes the county of Warren, that so happened to be the deciding factor for Bush in 04 .
This seat was held for over 20 years by Tony Hall Democrat, who was given the job of Ambassador of the Peace Corps, and the District was re-zoned to include Republican areas, leaving out the porrer and middle class areas affected by things that happen in the 3rd.
We are having a Fund Drive right now and need everyone's help!

Some facts about Michael Turner and how tied up Rep. Turner is with the GOP Culture of Corruption...
Representative Turner has a very cozy relationship with the GOP Leadership.
* Turner received $15,000 from House Majority Leader John Boehner's "Freedom Project" PAC.
* Turner received $16,598 from GOP Whip Roy Blunt's "Rely on Your Beliefs" PAC.
* Turner voted with President Bush 90% of the time.
* Turner voted the GOP party line 94% of the time.
Why do you think Turner is just rubber stamping the Republican agenda?
How tied up is Representative Turner with the Tom DeLay/Jack Abramoff scandal? Turner has taken:
* $20,000 from Tom DeLay's ARMPAC.
* $1,000 from Bob Ney, the first congressman to be implicated based on the Jack Abramoff guilty plea.
With all of these ties to the DeLay/Abramoff mess, is it any surprise that Turner has:
* Voted to weaken House ethics rules when DeLay proposed doing so as GOP Majority Leader.
* Voted with Tom DeLay 94% of the time.
Is Representative Turner serving Ohio voters, or the Republican money machine?
