How RINOs are no different from Democrats.

You know what a RINO is, they are Republicans In Name Only. People who were elected on the Republican Party ticket who don't represent the principles of the Republican Party. In Alaska, Lisa Murkowski, is a RINO who was defeated in the Republican Senatorial Primary by Tea Party candidate Joe Miller. Lisa Murkowski, who is the current U.S. Senator from Alaska, was given her position when she was first appointed to the Senate by her father, then Governor Frank Murkowski, in 2002. After her unexpected defeat in the 2010 Republican primary election, she decided to mount a write-in campaign. Lisa Murkowski’s voting record is more in line with Democrats than Republicans. The American Conservative Union gives her only a current 68% rating and a lifetime rating of 70%. The liberal group Americans for Democrativ Action gives Murkowski a 35% rating for 2009.

Now comes word from the Tea Party Express how Murkowski has used political influence in Alaska to break the election law rules. And also how the National Republican Senatorial Committee has refused to support Joe Miller who won the primary. This appears to be the root cause of the problem in the Republican Party. The national leadership is far less conservative than the Republicans we have elected. Here is the story from the Tea Party Express.

URGENT: Murkowski is cheating in Alaska Senate Race

We always tell you the truth - even when it's bad news.

And in Alaska, the past few weeks have been nothing but bad news.  The deck, it seems, is stacked against us.  RINO Lisa Murkowski was able to get her friend, who is the head of the Elections Division in Alaska to violate the law and print out a list of write-in candidate's names, so that voters would be given a sheet listing Lisa Murkowski's name - in order to maximize the votes for Murkowski.

But it doesn't end there.  The Elections Chief, Murkowski's friend, has also announced that voters need not spell Murkowski's name correctly and they'd still count the votes for Murkowski - again breaking with not only tradition but the law.

For the past few weeks, Murkowski has been smearing Joe Miller, because while he worked as a Fedreral Magistrate in Alaska he used his computer, and other computers in the office to vote in an online poll.

That's Joe Miller's big offense.  Never mind that Murkowski voted for the bailouts, the "Son of Stimulus" and hundreds of millions in earmarks.  Joe Miller voted in an online poll and the media, along with Murkowski's allies are smearing him.

And if that wasn't enough, the National Republican Senatorial Committee refuses to campaign against Murkowski - as they don't want to offend or alienate her, even though she lost the Republican nomination for Senate.

So it seems that only we, the Tea Party Express, are willing to campaign against her.  Thus, we need your help in these final days of the campaign, as we place radio and TV ads in support of Joe Miller, and in opposition RINO Lisa Murkowski.

Please, help us fight back.  If you can give $50, $100, $500, $1,000 or more (up to the maximum allowed contribution of $5,000 per individual) to our campaign supporting Joe Miller, we can overcome the dirty tricks of Lisa  Murkowski's campaign.  Contribute online - HERE.
