Looks like Jon Powers has earned the praise of the premier left-wing blog, The Daily Kos (of “screw ‘em fame), and was selected to be a part of their so-called “Orange To Blue” program. Power himself blogged at Daily Kos, thanking them for opening up another channel for him to raise money from liberal activists who don’t live in his district or state.
First of all, I want to say thank you to Markos and the Daily Kos community for selecting our campaign to be part of their Orange to Blue program. We are honored to be chosen and happy to be part of this community.
It’s nice to know Powers considers himself part of the Daily Kos community. He seems more at home there than in the 26th congressional district.
