Knollenberg announces early. Our work is cut out for us

Obviously our campaign to retire Joe Knollenberg from office has Joe worried. Here we are in July of 2007 and he's already formally announcing his re-election bid. Today is an important day. We will be visiting Joe's office urging Joe to bring an end to the war in Iraq. Joe knows he's in trouble as he is targeted by the Michigan Democratic party, the Democratic Campaign Committee, the Human Rights Campaign and a new national coalition, No Iraq Escalation and grassroots activists.

Joe is so out of touch with his constituents, he continues to vote for funding the war, even though a poll conducted in his district back in February showed that 79% of the respondents were against the surge that has now been carried out.
