Another Dear John Letter....
Dear John,
With the Senate race tightening in Massachusetts, one has to wonder if our local Representative is taking notice. Massachusetts is one of the most liberal places in the country (if not the most liberal) and a Republican is getting close enough to actually win there on Tuesday.
Mr. Salazar, Colorado's Third Congressional District is no where as liberal as the State of Massachusetts. You vote with the left wing side of the party 97% of the time, the other 3% you abstain. 97% Democrat voting does not make you a moderate, no matter how hard you try to convince us otherwise. I would be willing to bet that the people of Western Colorado do not agree with your representation of the Third Congressional during your term in office.
You vote to bankrupt America over and over again and, and you do not have the courtesy to even talk to people you are paid to represent. During the Congressional break of August 2009, you chose not to see your constituents and hear their concerns about the health care bill. Then, without any input from your constituents, you voted for the bill. We elected you to represent the Third Congressional District not the cities of of San Francisco and Chicago.
Your challenger, Scott Tipton, lost to you in 2006 by a margin of about 60,000 votes. That when times were good. That was pre-health care bill. That was pre-housing crisis. That was before the unemployment rate was at 10%. That was before the energy industry was forced out of Western Colorado. That was before the failing Presidency of Barrack Obama.
What I do know for sure is that the special interests and lobbyists cannot buy my vote, like they have bought yours. My family and I will not be voting for you in November. I will do everything in my power to campaign against you. I have read that the Third Congressional District seat is considered a "safe Democrat" seat. I contend that no seat is "safe" when the will of the people has been forgotten.
You Mr. Salazar, have forgotten the most important part of your job. You for got to represent your constituents. Your constituents will not forget in November.
