Lee, It’s a bold move challenging an entrenched incumbent for a
Congressional seat. I applaud it. We need our elected officials to be more
responsive and remember they are one of us, elected by us to be our voice – not
just the voice of the special interests or big money donors.“We, the People”
need to matter again. You’ve got my support!

Yes, it is possible that this was not Mr. Calta. If so, I will fix this story.
It will be interesting to see what other endorsements Lee will receive between now and June.
UPDATE: Mr. Calta confirmed in a comment to this story that he is supporting Mr. McGroarty for Congress.
I think the more interesting story is that Michael appears to have endorsed Lee after reading about him in a newspaper article announcing he was running.
ReplyDeleteI would hope Michael would do a little more research before implying Congressman Miller is the "voice of the special interests or big money donors." Just a thought.
Thank you for your comment.
ReplyDeleteRemember that Mr. Calta and Mr. McGroarty could have talked before the article came out.
Also, it is possible that the comment could have been someone pretending to be Mr. Calta. So he may not have made those comments about Rep. Miller.
It’s my comment. I accept ownership! When I consider what I see in our elected officials like Assembly member Curt Hagman or our SB County Supervisor Gary Ovitt or State Senator Bob Huff and others, I am truly impressed. These guys are out there day in and day out, visiting our schools, listening to our needs, building sidewalks and other needed support, helping our children with grants and valuable resources, fighting to better the system with sincere conservative values etc. etc. They are constantly available and always responsive. I don’t personally dislike our long time Congressman. He’s personable and polished, but he doesn’t compare to the Curt Hagman’s or the Gary Ovitt’s or the Bob Huff’s of the world in his connection to our community. His heart just isn’t as connected to us every day people. I hope having a credible challenger from the Chino Valley will change that. michaelcalta@hotmail.com www.michaelcalta.com
