Does your favorite PAC or NC give too indiscriminately? If you're looking for a way to target your financial contributions to precisely those politicians who support a precise conservative position, you may want to take a look at Slatecard.. Here's an article about it from Human Events (10/12/2007)

MNGOP: New ObamaCare TV Ads about Reps. Walz & Peterson

St. Paul- Republican Party of Minnesota Chairman Tony Sutton today announced that the Party would begin running television advertisements regarding health care across the First and Seventh Congressional Districts. The ads will urge Minnesotans to contact DFL Representatives Tim Walz and Collin Peterson about their opposition to Barack Obama's risky plan calling for a government takeover of the American health system.

In addition to today's St. Paul press conference, Chair Sutton will also make appearances in Rochester and Mankato where he will discuss the new ad and call on Walz to oppose ObamaCare.
Deputy Chair Brodkorb will discuss the television advertisements about Rep. Peterson during stops in Alexandria, Moorhead and Fergus Falls.
