SBA List Candidate Fund Won More Than It Lost!<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>??<br \/>\n<\/strong><font size=\"3\"><\/font><font face=\"Verdana\">Dear James,<\/p>\n<p>For the fifth consecutive election in a row, candidates endorsed by the SBA List Candidate Fund have won more than they have lost.?? <\/font><\/p>\n<p>??<br \/>\n<font size=\"3\"><\/font><font face=\"Verdana\"><strong>The SBA List Candidate Fund won 59% of its federal campaigns this year.<\/strong> <strong>Seventeen of 29 SBA Candidate Fund-endorsed candidates were victorious on Tuesday<\/strong>. <\/font><\/p>\n<p>??<br \/>\n<font size=\"3\"><\/font><font face=\"Verdana\">By contrast, EMILY???s List won 43% of its federal races with 13 of 30 endorsed candidates prevailing on Election Day. ??<strong>In 2002, the SBA List won 19 of 29 federal races (66%). ??In 2004, SBA won 27 of 35 federal races (77%).<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p>??<br \/>\n<font size=\"3\">Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the Democratic Party imitated the pro-life movement to pick up several seats on Tuesday. <strong>America did not vote against the pro-life position on Tuesday.<\/strong>?? Even Democrats were sounding pro-life.?? ??<br \/>\n<\/font><font size=\"3\">??<br \/>\n<\/font><strong><font size=\"3\">The question for members of the new Democratic leadership is whether they will welcome true pro-life Democrats into policy-making positions.<\/font><\/strong><font size=\"3\">?? 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?<br \/>\n<\/font>??<br \/>\n<strong><font face=\"Verdana\" color=\"#0000ff\" size=\"3\">Democrats ran unusually moderate candidates because they realized <u>they couldn???t win<\/u> in most places around the country on a pro-abortion agenda. <\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>??<br \/>\n<font size=\"3\">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.<br \/>\n<\/font>??<br \/>\n<strong><u><font face=\"Verdana\" color=\"#ff0000\" size=\"3\">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. ??<\/font><\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>??<br \/>\n<font size=\"3\">Another silver lining is that Congress will welcome <strong>two new pro-life congresswomen<\/strong> in January!?? Congresswomen-elect Mary Fallin (R-OK) and Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) are well-known, tremendous leaders in the pro-life movement. ????<br \/>\n<\/font><font size=\"3\">??<br \/>\n<\/font><font size=\"3\">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<sup>th<\/sup> Congress.<br \/>\n<\/font><font size=\"3\">??<br \/>\n<\/font><font size=\"3\"><\/font><font size=\"3\">Sincerely,<\/font><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Right-click here to download pictures.
