Great Conservative Debate!

Michele Rollins ignores Delaware Conservative Coalition

The Delaware Conservative Coalition was honored last month when around 1200 Conservatives joined us at the Great Conservative Cookout.

We at DCC will be endorsing candidates but want to start these endorsements with no preconceived notions.

In order to keep our new members informed and chose which candidate we will be endorsing we felt it was necessary to organize a debate between Michele Rollins and the other Republican candidates running for Congress.

We started this process a few weeks ago and have been given the proverbial cold shoulder by the Rollins campaign team. Throughout the last 2 weeks we have had emails and phone calls ignored.

The Delaware Conservative Coalition wonders why the "Conservative" candidate would chose to ignore so many possible voters.

The following email was sent to Michele Rollins and her campaign staff on August 5th, 2010. We would ask that you share this information and consider why Michele Rollins has chosen not to respond to so many of us.

Please consider this a formal request to Mrs. Rollins and her campaign. Much of this information was shared last week; we would simply like to ensure all interested parties have all necessary information.

We are proposing a debate between Mrs. Rollins and Mr. Urquhart sometime before the Delaware primary (September 14th). The debate will consist of a moderator (most likely Dan Gaffney of WGMD) and three panelists (to consist of Rick Jensen of WDEL in Wilmington, someone from the Wilmington News Journal and we hope to get someone from WBOC). We envision having the panelists ask all the questions and each candidate getting three minutes to answer the questions and a one minute rebuttal. We would like to keep it to 1.5 to 2 hours.

We will strive to make this process as transparent as possible. The Delaware Conservative Coalition will not know any of the questions in advance. We have a few categories we would wish touched on (such as illegal immigration) but it will be up to the panelists to come up with the questions.

We want this debate to inform the constituents of what both candidates stand for and how each would represent us in Washington. This upcoming election is one of the most important events in our lifetime.

The Delaware Conservative Coalition will pay the costs of the debate. We have asked you first as to your preferred date. Once you accept we will approach Mr. Urquhart's campaign about whether or not they will participate.

We would like to request the courtesy of a reply by Monday August 9th at 12 pm with the date chosen by her. If Mrs. Rollins is unable to participate in a debate before the primary we would request the reason she is unable to schedule the aforementioned debate.

Please send the aforementioned reply via this email address (delawareconservativecoalition@gmail.com).

We understand that you are busy with the expected duties of running such a large campaign and appreciate your swift response. Thank you again for your time and consideration regarding this important and time-sensitive issue.

Ask to place this flyer in your church, at your fire hall, even at your grocery store!

Lastly, invite people to follow us on Twitter, join our Facebook group, and subscribe to our blog! Let's get this information out so we may continue the Conservative cause!
