Lincoln Club of Fresno County Issues
Statement on Tonight’s Debate
Fresno, California – The Chairman of the
Lincoln Club of Fresno County issued the following statement regarding
tonight’s debate:
“From the standpoint of domestic policy, the debate was an
opportunity for the President to reiterate his strengths and plans. In
spite of inheriting a two quarter recession from Bill Clinton, the aftermath
of the technology market collapse, corporate scandals, and the terrorist
attacks on September 11, 2001, our nation’s unemployment rate stands at
5.4%, the lowest of any industrialized nation on Earth, and lower than the
5.5 unemployment rate during Bill Clinton’s re-election in 1996. This is
truly remarkable.“
“Senator Kerry’s domestic agenda, whether it be on tax
policy, health insurance, minimum wage, gun control, affirmative action or
any other issue, if he wins, is dead on arrival in Washington. The
Republicans will continue to control the House of Representatives after
November’s election, and they won’t give the Senator any of what he wants if
he becomes President. So, all of what the Senator said tonight on domestic
issues was irrelevant.”
“Regarding foreign affairs, the President repudiated
Senator Kerry’s stated desire to pass a ‘global test’ in protecting
America. He also reiterated is strongly held belief that the strongest
defense in the war on terror is a strong offense. We share his belief on
this issue. Free elections in Afghanistan and the laying down of arms by
insurgents in Iraq are further evidence that the President’s policies are
working.”

Primary Election a Big Night for
The Lincoln Club
The Lincoln Club of Fresno County went
undefeated in last night's local elections, with endorsed candidates
Michael Villines, Larry Westerlund and Clovis Measure A all racking up
victories in part due to support and endorsements from the Lincoln Club.
Lincoln Club Chairman Michael Der
Manouel, Jr. offered the following statement:
"The big prize of the night for us was
Assembly District 29. There was an urgent need to elect Mike Villines to
this seat and it was a priority race not only for us but for Republicans
statewide who had lined up with Villines. We commend the Villines
campaign and look forward to working with Mike Villines next year as our
new Assemblyman. Another critical win for our PAC was in Council
District 4, where our endorsed candidate, Larry Westerlund, outworked
and out hustled Council President Brad Castillo in a great win for all
of Fresno.
Brad Castillo even credited a last minute
Lincoln Club mail piece for his defeat

and we are more than happy to the accept responsibility

Finally, we commend the Clovis Unified
School Board for their excellent management and look forward to seeing
this growing district benefit from the proceeds generated by Measure A."
