Dawson Supporters,

I want to thank each of you for the support you have given our campaign. We ran a consistent above board campaign focused on the economy and jobs. Although the results are not as we expected, the end game of replacing Melissa Bean with a quality conservative Republican is still our focus.

Thank you for all you have done!

John

“John Dawson of Barrington has a strong grasp of economics” Daily Herald Editorial Board

PRIMARY ELECTION: 2 DAYS


CITIZENS OF THE 8TH DISTRICT,

John Dawson is the only candidate Melissa Bean does not want to win the primary. John has run a clean campaign, is the best qualified for the job and he will fix the economy and jobs.

As e-mails are flying among the other candidates regarding law suits, past arrests, flip flopping on issues, stretching the truth on their campaigning, etc., John Dawson has focused on listening to the people of the 8th and discussing solutions for the economy and jobs. The 8th District cannot afford to send the wrong candidate to take on Bean & the economy.

We have the perfect candidate and we MUST make sure he is elected on Tuesday. Citizen's of the 8th District deserve the best.
WE DESERVE

JOHN DAWSON.

VOTE FOR DAWSON, THE CLEAN CAMPAIGNER


I guess it was too much to hope for to think that the 8th Congressional District Republican race could make it to election day on Feb. 2 without any mudslinging. Last week, Chris Geissler called out Joe Walsh for not paying his campaign debts and for living outside of the 8th district in Winnetka and he goes on to note that Maria Rodriguez also lives outside the 8th District. Rodriguez, in turn, has not been honest on her robo calls and in the candidate forums where she continually states that she is the "only one in the race with elected experience" even after being told repeatedly that John Dawson was elected to the school board in District 155.

Meanwhile, Joe Walsh has been attacking Rodrigez over her flip-flopping on the issue of extending Illinois Route 53 northbound (which she has opposed).

Dirk Beverage had been touting the fact that he was "the founder" of the 501C3 organization "We Do Care" until Joe Walsh pointed out that there were actually 5 founders and three of the five are actually supporting Walsh over Beveridge for Congress. Interesting.

Why is it so difficult to run a clean above-board campaign without any mud slinging? Doesn't anyone in the 8th District want to concentrate on the real issues - jobs and the economy?

John Dawson is my choice for Congress. He understands the issues and he's stayed squeaky clean throughout the campaign. That's who I want running against Melissa Bean in November and that's who I want representing me in Washington.

“John Dawson of Barrington has a strong grasp of economics” Daily Herald Editorial Board

PRIMARY ELECTION: 4 DAYS

CITIZENS OF THE 8TH DISTRICT,

Wednesday’s LWV candidate forum was the final opportunity for all 6 candidates to showcase why they should be the Republican Candidate to compete against BEAN in November.

As expected, JOHN DAWSON proved once again he is the only candidate that has the skill sets, experience, and integrity to take on Melissa Bean first, and then tackle the economy.

The people of the 8th District cannot afford sending the wrong person to Washington. We must end the pattern of electing the candidates who are skilled fundraisers and begin electing candidates who are skilled at solving the problems that plague our district and country. The responsible vote is based on tangible qualifications and experience.

JOHN DAWSON knows why he is running. He has the knowledge and experience to fix our country’s economy and create local jobs. Why are the other candidates running?

JOHN DAWSON is focused on fixing the economy, creating jobs, defending our nation and leaving our country a better place for our children.

JOHN DAWSON is the only candidate with both public and private sector experience managing budgets as large as $50,000,000.

PRIMARY ELECTION: 6 DAYS
CITIZENS OF THE 8TH DISTRICT,

Tonight is the last chance to see all six candidates together as they take the stage for the final forum/debate before the Primary.

The League of Women’s Voters Candidate Forum will begin at 7:00PM tonight at the Barrington Area Library. We hope you will attend and show your support by placing a JOHN DAWSON yard sign inside your car’s windshield (after you park your car of course!). If you need a sign, please stop by Dawson Campaign HQ Office -(777 Lake Zurich Rd, Barrington,IL)

Rules for tonight’s forum state no campaign literature / buttons / etc. may be distributed or displayed inside the Library. However, placing signage inside your vehicle is OK.

John Dawson has many great qualities that you don’t find in typical politicians. None are more refreshing and important than HONESTY and INTEGRITY. Despite the recently exposed “information” regarding the other candidates, John Dawson is concentrating on addressing the issues and why this election is so important.
John Dawson is fed up with congress not focusing on the economy and jobs!

At this point in America’s history, John Dawson knows why he is running. He has the knowledge and experience to fix our country’s economy and create local jobs. Why are the other candidates running?

He is not an insider. He is the one candidate who will not be changed by Washington.

John Dawson is focused on fixing the economy, creating jobs, defending our nation and leaving our country a better place for our children.


John is the only candidate with both public and private sector experience managing budgets as large as $50,000,000.


Vote responsibly!

Vote John Dawson: #1 on the Economy, 2nd on the Ballot!

Congratulations to the people of Massachusetts & REPUBLICAN Senator Scott Brown


PRIMARY ELECTION: 13 DAYS

PATRIOTS OF THE 8TH DISTRICT,
With less than two weeks until the Primary, timing is everything! The Dawson Campaign continues to add to intelligent army of supporters from all across the 8th Congressional District. As a State of Illinois Senior Olympic Gold Medalist runner,(1500m & 800m), John Dawson knows how to finish a race and sprint to victory.


Yesterday, John and his Campaign Manager, Ret. Admiral Jack Mumaw, had a very productive meeting with former Governor of Illinois, Jim Thompson. After their visit with the four term Republican Governor, John and Admiral Mumaw returned to campaign HQ to find an interesting letter sent in from a fellow citizen of the 8th District. It has been sent to the Daily Herald Editorials as well, but as a supporter of the Dawson Campaign, you get a preview!

How John Dawson Differs from the Pack

The six Republican candidates for 8th Congressional District have a lot of similarities. Fix economy, create jobs, shrink government, balance budget, defend country, support education, etc. All extremely important goals.
What distinguishes John Dawson from the pack of six? Daily Herald 1/12/10:
“It is not the federal government’s place to tell a woman what she can do with her body in the first trimester,” Dawson explained. “The choice is between the woman, her religious beliefs and trusted advisers.”
That’s a bold statement for a Republican candidate to say. It’s the statement voters in the 8th District have wanted to hear from a Republican candidate since a Democrat took the office. It's the statement that will win back the office for Republicans.
No man, no woman, no government should be allowed to dictate this personal and private issue. John Dawson made a bold statement as a Republican candidate. Thankfully there is a John Dawson who has the courage. Linda Post

Fellow Concerned Americans:

John Dawson continues to gain support in his race to win the Republican Primary election for Congressman in the Illinois 8th Congressional District.

Ken Koehler, the popular McHenry County Board Chairman, today added his name to the list of those endorsing John to win the Primary and then to the General Election to unseat Democrat incumbent Melissa Bean. Ken has served for nine years on the McHenry County Board, the last five years as Chairman. He is seeking reelection this year.

"John fully understands the major issues of the day on jobs and the economy, and the two great concerns of transportation and groundwater issues facing McHenry County. He will make a worthy ally to 16th District Congressman Don Manzullo in addressing not only the challenges facing the nation but their adjoining congressional districts as well."
