Mid-Term Elections 2006:?? SBA List Candidate Fund Won More Than It Lost!
??
Dear James,

For the fifth consecutive election in a row, candidates endorsed by the SBA List Candidate Fund have won more than they have lost.??

??
The SBA List Candidate Fund won 59% of its federal campaigns this year. Seventeen of 29 SBA Candidate Fund-endorsed candidates were victorious on Tuesday.

??
By contrast, EMILY???s List won 43% of its federal races with 13 of 30 endorsed candidates prevailing on Election Day. ??In 2002, the SBA List won 19 of 29 federal races (66%). ??In 2004, SBA won 27 of 35 federal races (77%).

??
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the Democratic Party imitated the pro-life movement to pick up several seats on Tuesday. America did not vote against the pro-life position on Tuesday.?? Even Democrats were sounding pro-life.?? ??
??
The question for members of the new Democratic leadership is whether they will welcome true pro-life Democrats into policy-making positions.?? Will they be more welcoming to Senator-elect Bob Casey on the Senate floor than they were to his father, the late pro-life Gov. Robert Casey (D-PA), when he was denied an opportunity to speak at the 1992 Democratic convention because of his pro-life position?
??
Democrats ran unusually moderate candidates because they realized they couldn???t win in most places around the country on a pro-abortion agenda.

??
The Democratic strategy proved successful in places like Pennsylvania and North Carolina where self-described pro-life Democrats Bob Casey and Heath Shuler defeated incumbent pro-life Republicans Rick Santorum and Charles Taylor.
??
The silver lining to this election is that pro-abortion Democrats realized they have to run pro-life candidates to win, and the Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund proved that even when we are outspent we outperform. ??

??
Another silver lining is that Congress will welcome two new pro-life congresswomen in January!?? Congresswomen-elect Mary Fallin (R-OK) and Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) are well-known, tremendous leaders in the pro-life movement. ????
??
Thank you for your continued support of women and the unborn.?? The Susan B. Anthony List will continue to take your message to all members of the new 110^th Congress.
??
Sincerely,

Marjorie Dannenfelser
President
Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund
