Armstrong ends Wiens' six-year reign as Leadville 100 champion ( Colorado )

Posted by admin / Under Lance Green

Lance Armstrong can't remember the last time he raced 65 miles by himself. So strong was Armstrong on Saturday that he left the rest of the field in the mud just 35 miles into the lung-searing Leadville 100 mountain bike race, winning the nation's highest-altitude endurance test in record time. Despite racing through freezing rain... Armstrong was so safely in front of Wiens that he didn't worry when he heard a hissing in his back tire

Rep Leonard LANCE (R-NJ) VOTED FOR THE ENERGY TAX cap-and-trade

Posted by admin / Under Lance Green

Most people know that New Jersey is only second to California for financial trouble. First term Congressman Leonard Lance who lives in one of the most affluent areas of New Jersey, Hunterdon County was an unsuccessful lawyer in Clinton New Jersey and practiced under the wing of his father a useless State Senator. Lance has betrayed Republicans by casting the deciding vote for the cap-and-trade bill. He certainly did not listen to his constituents. Lance needs to be targeted and thrown out of office in 2010.

An emperor without clothes has no coattails

Democrat Linda Stender is running the single sleaziest campaign ad I have ever seen. Thanks to the national Republican Party, it will probably work. The ad in question is a flier attacking her Republican opponent for Congress, Leonard Lance, for supporting Christie Whitman's pension bond scheme in 1997 when he served in the state Assembly. One problem: Lance opposed the scheme. Not only did he oppose it, but he opposed it so publicly and prominently that his fellow Republicans took revenge on him by removing him from a key committee chairmanship. Yet that doesn't stop Stender, a state assemblywoman from...

Divide and Conquer in New Jersey

Posted by admin / Under Lance Green

So in today's mail, my wife and I received a mailer listing the pros and cons of two men running for our congressional seat in Somerset County. The two candidates in question are Michael Hsing and Leonard Lance. The mailer differentiates between Lance's moderate to liberal GOP stance and Hsing's stance as a staunch conservative. Lance is the GOP candidate, Hsing, after losing in the primaries, is running as an independent. The mailer is aimed at conservatives and portrays Hsing as the better candidate. He's a social and fiscal conservative, pro-life, an RNC delegate in 2000 and 2004, anti-federal funding...
