Running for Congress

Hello, my name is Andy Goss. I'm a conservative Republican running for Congress in Arizona CD8 against Gabrielle Giffords. I'm a veteran and I'm sick of this administration and Congress. I'm tired of the lies and I'm tired of Congress thinking they know what is best for me. I want to shrink our government by abolishing the Education Dept, Homeland Security, Dept of Energy, the EPA, HUD and IRS. We must reform our tax code. My views on issues and plans for action can be seen at www GossforCongress.com.

I cannot do this alone. My message has been very well received during the campaign but I need your help. I am running a grassroots campaign. Please visit my site and support me. Email me your questions. Tell people about my candidacy. Contribute to my campaign. Every little bit helps. I have no paid staff and I absolutely REFUSE to go into debt to campaign. I need your help and financial support. I know times are tight for a lot of people, myself included. But you can contribute some now or pay with your freedoms later. We can take back the House in 2010. I can beat Gabrielle Giffords with your help. Thank you for all you do.

Andy Goss
Candidate for Arizona CD8

If you actually ever come back, run your campaign against this criminal Giffords by saying that even though Giffords may be moderate (she probably really isn't, but you want to setup strawmen), that a vote for her will keep pelosi speaker of the house.

Therefore, they should vote for you because a vote for her is a vote for a radical socialist far outside the views of your district since the democrats would inevitably keep pelosi.

This could only backfire by her promising to support a republican speaker of the house. Either way, you win.

I guess I should go into more detail.

The reason this strategy works is because the majority of people don't believe anything and don't know anything about capitalism, socialism or have any idea what the terms mean.

They want to vote for someone who is "moderate" and that they perceive in the middle. Calling somebody what they are, like a socialist, will be perceived as negative campaigning.

Calling someone a socialist everyone already doesn't like will give you positive results because they will just believe it, even though they don't really even know what a socialist is.

This is why it has worked for socialists and communists to call themselves progressives and liberals, the nincompoops don't have any idea what the terms mean.

I've gotten several pieces of advice in my district from people that have run against her in the past and about what will work and what will not work. I will not get personal with Giffords. However, her voting record is fair game and she did vote for the bailouts, cap and trade and this health care fiasco. If those votes are not enough to condemn her, I don't know what is. She has a sizeable war chest and the backing of Pelosi so this endeavor won't be easy. But, as a former counterintelligece agent and interrogator, I look forward to the opportunity to shred her in front of an audience and media. Should be fun.

Her connection with pelosi will be easy to exploit, it isn't a benefit.

Throughout the country, nobody likes pelousi.

Thanks for the welcome. Win or lose, (an election, that is) it's great to be around like-minded people. A great forum here.
