After 42 years of District Caucuses, without an elected Republican in office, the 7th Congressional District welcomed freshman Congressman Sean Duffy to their Hayward meeting on March 19th.  The event was both a celebration of accomplishments over the previous year, but also a call to action to stay involved as we head into 2012.

President Obama and Democrats in Washington have continued spending at record levels pushing the United States to a $14 Trillion deficit.  Republicans seem to be the only ones willing to put the government’s financial house in order and the leadership is going to have to come out of the Republican controlled House of Representatives.

Democrats want to simply maintain the status quo in hopes that the budget will balance itself.  Their answer is to hold spending at its current levels, but that is simply not sustainable and will be a disaster for the country.

David King, candidate for Secretary of State, details what he will attempt to accomplish as Secretary of State in Wisconsin.

Republicans were honored to have Karl Rove delivered the keynote address at the Wisconsin Republican’s State Convention in Milwaukee, WI last month.  After an exciting day of endorsing candidates, voting on policies, and rallying the troops – it was refreshing to hear Mr. Rove speak with such clarity as he described the events happening in Washington D.C. since Barack Obama took office.

If you weren’t able to attend the sold out event, we invite you to listen to the audio below and please leave feedback.

At the White House he oversaw the Offices of Strategic Initiatives, Political Affairs, Public Liaison, and Intergovernmental Affairs and was Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, coordinating the White House policy-making process.

Karl has been described by respected author and columnist Michael Barone in U.S. News & World Report as “…unique…no Presidential appointee has ever had such a strong influence on politics and policy, and none is likely to do so again anytime soon.” Washington Post columnist David Broder has called Karl a master political strategist whose “game has always been long term…and he plays it with an intensity and attention to detail that few can match.” Fred Barnes, executive editor of The Weekly Standard, has called Karl “the greatest political mind of his generation and probably of any generation… He knows history, understands the moods of the public, and is a visionary on matters of public policy.”

He was previously a member of the Board of International Broadcasting, which oversaw the operations of Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty, and served on the White House Fellows regional selection panel. He was also a member of the Boards of Regents at Texas Women’s Union and East Texas State University.

Watch the Wis7GOP interview with Lt. Governor Candidate, Ben Collins.

Ben Collins, a former Green Beret Commander and Afghanistan war vet, says his strengths include leadership. He currently owns and operates runs a successful business in Wisconsin and feels that a new Republican Governor is going to need a leader by his side.

Wisconsin continues to loose jobs and employers at a record pace and the a new Wisconsin administration will have an up hill battle to wage to try and bring new jobs and businesses into Wisconsin.

It appears that President Obama is waging his own war against Capitalism and business, by doing everything he can to destroy our nations economy.

Republicans are scrambling to find ways to thwart the progress of Socialism and Marxism spewing out of the White House and many are wondering if President Obama is actually, as many Conservatives Talk Show hosts are saying, collapsing the economy on purpose.

We need conservatives running our State and Federal government that believe in what the founders believed. Wisconsin needs a Lt. Governor that will stands for less government, lower taxes, and bringing business to Wisconsin again.

Sean Duffy, Candidate for United States Congressional Seat from Wisconsin, is facing Dave Obey, the 40 year political Goliath from Wausau, WI.  Dave Obey loves to brag about being the author of the failed Stimulus Package and was in the inner circle with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid fighting against Wisconsin to pass the un-Constitutional Heath Care Reform Bill.

Sean is a devoted conservative that wants to fight to bring Wisconsin values to Washington. He is the District Attorney in Ashland County and former Chairman of the 7th Congressional District Republicans.

The video below is from the 7th Congressional Caucus held on March 6th, 2010 in Wausau, WI.

After this speech, Sean was endorsed by the 7th Congressional District Caucus and is our Conservative Republican pick to face Dave Obey in November.  Please support the efforts of Sean’s campaign today

Check back on April 2, 2010 to hear about Mayor Dave Ross!

Welcome to the 7th Congressional District of Wisconsin’s 2010 Caucus.  This year was packed full of candidates and attendees.  There is definitely excitement brewing within the 7th District as conservatives get energized to retake America at the polls in November 2010.

As a result of the Caucus, delegates voted to endorse Congressional Candidate Sean Duffy of Ashland to run against Dave Obey of Wausau.  Dave Obey, a Liberal Democrat, has been in the Congress for over 40 years and is the self proclaimed author of the Stimulus Bill.  His authorship of the stimulus bill is debatable, but we do know that Dave loves to bring a lot of Pork home around election time ~ but only shows up for photo ops before being wisked away back to the safe environment of Washington (where he doesn’t have answer any questions about his actions).

The election of 2o1o is going to be a major project for candidates and local parties. We urge each citizen to get involved as much as they can. Elections take time and money and victory isn’t going to come cheap. Donations of money are great, but time and hard work are just as important.

Please consider volunteering for someones campaign. Will you get involved?  November 2010 is coming soon!
