Connie Mack might as well be added back as a speculative 3 star at this point.

[MikeStanart]

Milton Wolf for US Senate in Kansas deserves at least 4 stars.

 

[compromise]

Time to take Mack back off again, he announced he's not running.

More bad news after another. First Bridenstine, now Mack.

Yeah, really disappointing given both were frontrunners.

Radel's seat is pretty much ceded to the establishment at this point. Coburn's we might still have a chance in if Brogdon enters the race after losing to Fallin, but it will be an uphill battle.

The elections for Oklahoma governor and U.S. Senate will be held on the same day. Brogdon has to decide between one or the other.

How is Paul Broun doing in Georgia? Have there been any recent polls on that race?

There hasn't been any primary polling, but a general election poll shows Broun performing the best against the Democratic nominee:

Yeah, I saw that. That's surprising. That goes against the whole establishment argument that Broun would cost the GOP the Senate seat in Georgia.

Other candidates:

Alieta Eck NJ-12 (I'm pretty sure she was previously on here so just rate her as you did before) http://www.eckforcongress.com/
Gavin Seim WA-4 (5 stars?) http://callmegav.com/

 

[Mr.NoSmile]

As far as Colorado goes, Tisha Casida, again, looks like a long shot against Scott Tipton. Based on FreedomWorks, his record is iffy. He voted to raise the debt ceiling, but he also voted for the Amash Amendment on the NSA.

Casida: http://www.casida2014.com/

Looks like a great candidate!

Tisei: http://tiseiforcongress.com/

What's so special about Tisei? His website doesn't say much overall and nothing at all about liberty oriented values. I guess he's ok considering he's running in Mass but what makes him a Liberty candidate and not just another run-of-the-mill Republican running in a liberal state?

Lonegan: https://steveloneganforcongress.com/

Israel:
Israel is America’s closest ally in the Middle East and one of its closest allies and friends in the entire world. We not only share common strategic goals but also a shared belief in democracy, human rights and the rule of law. The United States must be a vocal supporter of Israel’s right to defend itself against terrorist violence and should not pressure Israel to enter into peace agreements or concessions that threaten Israel’s ability to defend itself. Also important to Israel’s security, The United States must do everything in its power to prevent Iran from achieving nuclear capabilities, including keeping the military option on the table.

Syria:
As a member of Congress, Steve Lonegan will oppose sending American troops to invade foreign countries unless American interests are threatened directly, like President Obama’s proposal to attack Syria in 2013.

Uh...support possible military action against Iran but oppose sending troops to invade foreign countries unless the US is directly threatened? wut?

Alieta Eck NJ-12 (I'm pretty sure she was previously on here so just rate her as you did before) http://www.eckforcongress.com/

What makes Eck a Liberty candidate? Another with weak issues statements.

Gavin Seim WA-4 (5 stars?) http://callmegav.com/

Seim looks pretty good.

 

[pulp8721]

What makes Eck a Liberty candidate? Another with weak issues statements.

She once spoke at a fundraiser for Ron Paul.

As for the statements, she may just be trying to maintain some ambivalence considering the district leans heavily democrat.

Also, the following statements were left on her webpage when she ran for US Senate last year, which gives us a little more details on her policies.

Dr. Eck is a strong supporter of our right to bear arms. She believes that we have enough gun control laws on the books. No further laws are needed, as they infringe upon our Second Amendment rights.

Until the border is secure, any immigration law is fatally flawed. Close the borders first. Then we will decide how best to deal with illegal immigrants and the companies that knowingly hire them.

Personally I see her as a four star candidate.

 

[devil21]

^^^^^
I like that she appeared at RP's fundraiser. That's a great sign. The 2A and border statements are typical GOP fare though. Need to see something about her foreign policy to go 4 stars though.

[Gray Seal]

I am Michael Firsching. I am running in the Republican primary the 18th of March. My positions are the strongest liberty positions of anyone running for federal office in the State of Illinois. Please like and share my facebook if you agree (Mike Firsching for Congress).

Around 20 to 25% of the voters I have spoken with are fed up. They do not want to go with the status quo. However, this group still does not recognize the political power they have if they vote as a block in the Illinois primaries. Please help to reach them by spreading the word. I have chosen facebook as a broad means to do so.

The internet is the means to leveling the playing field against big money donations from business which is cozy with government. People must use the internet as an inexpensive means to learn about their candidates. If money determines who gets noticed, I expect the country to continue its fizzle until the next collapse.

Best of luck for your campaign! Maybe start a thread in this subforum if you haven't already? Give us some details.
