CMR a grassroots candidate

I am going to vote for Cathy McMorris Rodgers for several reasons.

Her commitment to family and patriotism is self-evident and documented within her “story” on her website. She has demonstrated a penchant to get along and be legislatively effective in her professional domain, the House of Representatives.

CMR’s roots are in Eastern Washington, where she grew up working in her family’s orchards. She knows what it means to be financially “at risk” and what it is like to accumulate dirt under one’s fingernails. Her opponent has been most successful when working at huge bureaucracies as an employee. The decision for whom to vote is easy.
