Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) has gone from every conservative's favorite Democrat to being reviled because he sold his ObamaCare vote for a backroom deal and a flimsy promise on blocking federal funds for abortion from the president.Stupak's northern Michigan district typically votes Democratic, but it's socially conservative--so he could end up paying a price in November because of his duplicity.
And in an amazing coincidence, some guests who aren't exactly tourists are coming to Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
From a Tea Party Express press release:
The Tea Party Express III: Just Vote Them Out tour (website: http://www.TeaPartyExpress.org) has added a new member of Congress who will be added to the group's target list.Related posts:
"We're trading votes with Bart Stupak. He sold out the American people and voted for that awful health care bill, so now we're going to repay the favor and vote him out of office," said Joe Wierzbicki, Coordinator of the Tea Party Express and a Michigan native.
The Tea Party Express will be holding three tea party rallies in Stupak's district, where the defeat of Stupak will be a main focal point. Those rallies will take plafce in: Ironwood, (April 8); Escanaba, (April 9), and Sault Ste. Marie (April 9).
The Tea Party Express will be holding more rallies in Stupak's district than any other member of Congress in the country.
On top of that, the Tea Party Express has officially launched a fundraising drive for an Independent Expenditure campaign that will include TV and radio ads calling for Stupak's defeat. The first wave of the campaign was launched on Tuesday.
