Hello:

My name is Chris Telesca and I am a progressive Democrat. I am a
precinct chair in Wake County, a delegate to the State Convention, a
member of the SEC, and the Outreach Chair Advisor for the Wake County
Progressive Democrats, and a member of the Progressive Democrats of NC
PAC. I am asking you to vote next Tuesday (or even before) for John
Brooks for Commissioner of Labor. Go check out his website at
www.brookslaborcomm.com

John Brooks is a long-time Democrat who is also very progressive to
boot! He helped found the Wake County Progressive Democrats with an old
labor lion and Democratic activist named P.R. Latta. Do you suppose
P.R. would not only endorse John's campaign but work hard to get him
elected if John Brooks wasn't the best and most pro-labor candidate?

As a four-term Labor Commissioner, John Brooks has done more for working
people in North Carolina than any commissioner before him or since him -
and that includes former Commissioner Payne. There are more pro-labor
precedents in the case law books under John's name than under any other
commissioner - go check it out in the law library to make sure!.

'nuff said.

As an old IBEW union member, I always made it a point to
vote for a democrat as Labor Commissioner. (For the same
reason I always vote for a republican for Sec'y of State
or Commerce: you don't put foxes in charge of security at
hen houses.)

However, you just gave yourself the kiss of (political)
death, by qualifying your democrat membership as 'progressive'.

Everybody knows the liberal code for 'Marxist/socialist'
is 'progressive' - and we don't need any commies in elected
offices in this country.

Not me! You have an absolute right in this country to
describe yourself any way you want to - no matter how
misleading. I will defend to the death your right to
call yourself a 'progressive', a 'liberal', or any of
the modern euphemisms for 'commie', as often as you like.

Is he more - or less of a fascist plunderer than those two?

Governor McCrory will need the help of many conservative
democrats to reverse the decades of governmental abuse in NC.

McCrory will surely get it from this quarter. and, well, i have a way
of swaying people's opinions about candidates, once i can talk to them
for a while.

i am not really that big of a fan of McCrory's, but he is a heck of a
sight better than Bev Perdue.
