The Philistines are after our friend 3rd District Congressman Jim Marshall -- Send him some stones and your dollars

On 8-30-04 Don Schanche Jr.of The Macon Telegraph Staff Writer reports:

Middle Georgia is likely to take a mud-bath during the next 10 weeks, as U.S. Rep. Jim Marshall, D-Ga., and challenger Calder Clay slug it out in a re-match.

Two years ago, Marshall beat Clay by a mere 1 percent.

The 3rd Congressional District, which occupies most of central Georgia, is generally considered one of the few in the nation not already locked up by one party or the other.

Political scientist Larry Sabato at the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, lists it among his "dirty thirty" competitive House races, "guaranteed to see the lion's share of money and mudslinging."

The good Lord doesn't make 'em better than Jim Marshall. He and Buddy Darden are two class acts.

Visit Congressman Marshall's website, and if you can, he sure needs our financial support (682 Cherry Street, Suite 300Macon, GA 31201).
