Cindy Sheehan endorses Rae, saying "We need to vote for candidates calling for peace"
The Lake Mills Leader, Cambridge News and Deerfield Independent newspapers
have just endorsed Rae, saying Rae "is a thoughtful progressive in the same mold as three of the
individuals who have occupied this particular seat in the United States Senate. We're specifically
talking about Robert "Fighting Bob" La Follette Sr., his son Robert M. La Follette Jr. and William
Proxmire. Unlike Kohl, who is nobody's senator but his own, they were giants in the U.S. Senate who
always put the public's interest first." More
"President Bush just signed into law a bill that eliminates the right of accused prisoners
to challenge their detention in court. It also eliminates that same right for immigrants and non-citizens - including 12 million
permanent residents - if they are declared "unlawful enemy combatants." The law lets President Bush decide what is and isn't
torture (presumably because he's shown such good judgement and foresight in the past?). And our government is moving to
legalize massive wiretapping programs on American citizens. More
Defeat the Gay Marriage Amendment
"I urge you to vote with me to defeat the proposed gay marriage amendment to our state's constitution. The amendment language
is seen by legal experts as a threat not just to gay marriage but also to existing heterosexual domestic partner benefits and
civil unions. More

Facing a War Without End
The Iraq war has cost too much, first and foremost in lives: 2,700 U.S.
soldiers dead, 21,000 wounded, 46,000 Iraqi civilians killed—-and
counting. The many other costs of the war are huge and rising. Iraqi society
is in chaos. Electricity isn’t working and people die daily from unsafe
drinking water. Violence continues to escalate. More
A Reason for Hope
Rae Vogeler says no to the war and yes to creating a society that cares
as much for its everyday people as it does for its most privileged. She
is running for the U.S. Senate in 2006 to replace Herb Kohl. More
Make Wisconsin a Leader Again
Rae’s opponent will be incumbent Herb Kohl, one of the richest of all
U.S. Senators. Kohl’s Senate voting record shows his willingness to
protect the wealth and privilege of the very rich and his willingness to
put other people’s children in danger. In 2005, he voted to protect
credit card companies by making it difficult for people to declare
bankruptcy. He supported the billions of dollars given to oil companies
and the nuclear industry in the energy bill. He helped pass enormous tax
cuts for rich people like himself. And he continues to support the
disastrous Iraq war. More
