My friends at KOS, thanks to you and other motivated and patriotic Americans, the country is changing.

Because of Terri, millions of voters understand that some politicians do want to tell all of us how to live. The whole world watched as an overwhelming majority of Americans stood powerless as self-appointed judgers in Congress and the White House made decisions for my family.

With your help through TerriPAC, voters are beginning – in growing numbers – to see through these self-interested and self-righteous politicians. TerriPAC reminded voters that so many of these politicians care more about getting their own way than standing up for our rights.

Hello, KOS nation.

Last night I was delighted to have received more than 80 comments about my post on NH Sen. Sununu and what he has to say about my case two years ago. Thanks to all who posted and I'll get to answering those comments as soon as I can.

The day before posting about Sununu, I let KOS nation know about a great opportunity our PAC has to raise some money from a great donor who has offered to match anything we raise by midnight tomorrow (March 31.)

UPDATE: Since our great donor made her offer, we've collected slightly more than $1,100 on-line. With her match, that's $2,200 in the past 48 hours.

That's outstanding.

Do you think we can do better? I think it's possible.

And since I know people drift on and off and through KOS, I wanted to post this again - asking for help and telling people about our first of its kind matching offer.

With news today that New Hampshire Senator John Sununu may be in trouble in his re-election bid, I can only say, "good riddance."

After the media circus around the illegal and unprecedented political intrusion on Terri's wishes and my family privacy, I started TerriPAC for the chief purpose of reminding voters what their elected officials said and did on this important issue - in fact, this clear indication of whether politicians prefer politics or privacy.

Senator Sununu, it may not shock you to learn, sided with former elected officials Tom Delay, Rick Santorum and George Allen on this issue. And soon, it appears, he will join them.

Hello, KOS nation.

My last post on KOS was about my decision to stay and fight - at least one more round - in 2008.

In that post, I mentioned our need to raise at least $50,000 this year so we can be prepared for next election. And more than a few KOS readers were kind and generous to chip-in. Thank you!

But today, one of TerriPAC's largest donors issued a challenge to us and offered to match dollar for dollar (up to her legal limit of $5,000) everything we raise by the end of the quarter - which as you know - ends at midnight March 31st - just a little more than 72 hours away!

Friends,

Because I have so many personal friends and political soul-mates here to KOS, I wanted you to be among the first to know.

Yesterday, after speaking with friends and hearing your voices, I sent an email to supports, donors and friends of TerriPAC to let them know I've decided to keep the PAC open throughout 2008 and engage in these pending and important elections.

The text of that email is below but...

It’s almost two years now since Terri’s case and my life were front page news around the world.

It seems like just yesterday that right-wing radio shows and internet "news" sites were challenging the President and Congress to illegally inject themselves into my most private and personal decisions.

Everyone remembers what happened: they did.

And but for the courage of a few judges we all would have been witnesses to perhaps the most political and outrageous abuse of power. And if you’re reading this you know the political fall-out from their self-righteous decisions.

Below is a press release we just sent from my PAC: TerriPAC.

As you can read below, across the country more than 20 Representatives and Senators who voted for or supported intervention in our private family matters lost on Tuesday. That's not a small number.

The partial list is below.

Also, maybe tomorrow I'll post about my election-eve rally with Bill Clinton in Florida. And, next week, TerriPAC will start our off-year fund raising drive to raise $56,000 by January, 2008. More on both of those later.

In the mean time, it was a great night for TerriPAC and those of us who understand the difference between politics and privacy... Read More

If it were fiction, you wouldn't believe it.

Sadly, what happened in Colorado on Tuesday is true and unbelievable.

At the conclusion of a three-day, three-state campaign trip to promote candidates who will bring needed new leadership to Washington, I flew to Ft. Collins, Colorado to attend the only "debate" between Congresswoman Marilyn Musgrave and her courageous and forceful challenger Angie Paccione in the Colorado 4th district.

What happened there made the clearest case I could ever imagine for why change isn't just needed - it's required.

Tomorrow I'll begin a nearly week long trip through four states to help candidates raise money and earn media coverage.

More importantly, together we'll remind voters of the conduct of some members of this Congress and that our freedoms will be on the ballot in November.

My fist stop is in Miami Beach where I will host a fund raiser for Congressional Candidate Michael Calderin.
