Endorsement by U.S. Senator Jim DeMint

Please take a look at an article today published on Redstate.com, a nationally recognized conservative website.

A friend of mine pointed out the other day that while I endorsed Ron Johnson for the Senate in Wisconsin several weeks ago on Twitter, I never wrote about it here.

Let me remedy that today by pointing out Jim DeMint, the NRSC, and me are all on the same side on this one.

DeMint will be making his endorsement today. Later today and this week I hear other conservative organizations will also be coming out for Johnson.

Polls in Wisconsin show Ron Johnson giving Russ Feingold a serious run for his money in the polls. Some polls have Johnson ahead and some just behind.

Johnson is a solid conservative businessman. I hear he has already ruffled a few Republican feathers in Washington with some of his anti-spending, pro-growth ideas.

He’s the type of guy we need in Washington working with Jim DeMint

Johnson Campaign: Wisconsin Donors Fuel Fundraising Efforts

[Oshkosh, WI] Oshkosh manufacturer and U.S. Senate Candidate Ron Johnson announced raising $557,774 from 2127 contributors during the reporting period which ended June 30, 2010. Johnson announced his candidacy on May 17, 2010, about halfway through the fundraising reporting period. Johnson raised $506,797 in June alone and has $940,642 cash on hand.

90% of Johnson’s total contributions were in-state contributions from Wisconsin donors, and support rolled in from 58 of Wisconsin’s 72 counties. 1963 in-state donors contributed $461,233 to Johnson’s campaign.

Johnson said he was humbled by the outpouring of grassroots support. “The people of Wisconsin are making an investment in my campaign because they want to help reign in the unsustainable spending and debt the career politicians have racked up in Washington,” Johnson said. “These strong fundraising numbers demonstrate the motivation of in-state, grassroots supporters who want to help me make a difference this fall, motivation I’m seeing first-hand as I travel across the state.”

Since entering the U.S. Senate race on May 17, 2010, Johnson has visited over thirty-five counties and attended over 125 events. Recent polling shows Johnson in a virtual dead heat with 18-year incumbent Russ Feingold.

Johnson, 55, owns PACUR LLC and is an accountant. PACUR is an Oshkosh-based manufacturing facility that specializes in a variety of plastics manufacturing for medical, commercial and industrial purposes.
