		<description>DemGoddess - as you can tell by the date of the article - the endorsement was not made public until after the debate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I find it distrubing that PACs are &quot;following the power&quot; so much in their support...  running scared to NOT endorse an incumbent even though there are better candidates to endorse.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There can be no better candidate for the VFW than one who enlisted in the ARMY and rose through the ranks to become a nurse, serving for a time in Korea and at Walter Reed and who is now a Doctor - but alas, power is a drug....&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Then - I&#039;m personally perplexed at the Democrats rhetoric - feeling a little crazed with power - promising no new taxes for 95% of Americans or anyone under $250,000?  They are already planning to not continue the Bush tax cuts in 2010 which means a tax increase for anyone paying taxes today - and now they are talking about removing the tax deferal on my 4019(k) ???  that will cut my company&#039;s contribution and reduce savings - the WRONG way to go...   and Biden kinda mis-spoke (surprise) that maybe that new number is $150,000 not $250,000 - hold on to your purse!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I guess I cancelled out your vote by voting for Miller-Meeks.  She understands health care, small business and the Millitary better than a poly sci professor ever could.  The VFW was very short sighted there.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The endorsement Miller-Meeks received was the Vets for Freedom group.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I guess PacMan is in good company - I see Murtha, D-PA is being endorsed by the VFW PAC over a retired Lt. Col, Iraq vet...  Miller-Meeks is in good company.  Again - I say - follow the power.</description>

<p>I find it distrubing that PACs are &#8220;following the power&#8221; so much in their support&#8230;  running scared to NOT endorse an incumbent even though there are better candidates to endorse.</p>
<p>There can be no better candidate for the VFW than one who enlisted in the ARMY and rose through the ranks to become a nurse, serving for a time in Korea and at Walter Reed and who is now a Doctor &#8211; but alas, power is a drug&#8230;.</p>

		<description>Someone might want to mention this to MMM. She made a big deal at the KCRG debate/forum that VFW didn&#039;t endorse and she had recieved the only endorsement from a  Veteran group ( all be it a far right partisan group)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kudos to Loebsack, you already had my vote.</description>
