Who's In Town?
We're slowing down for a repeat stop on our Alaska fundraising tour. The last time we dropped in on former Alaska Gov. Bill Sheffield's (D) house, he was hosting the annual Rep. Don Young (R-AK) pig roast. This time he's helping out Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK). Thanks to TPMm Reader LDR for sending us the invitation to "Ted's in Town" where guests are encouraged to contribute $250 to the senior senator's campaign fund. No word on the spread.

Please tell me there are Democrats running against everyone of these Alaskan wankers and where can I send campaign contributions?

Jake Metcalfe is running against Young. Jake is honest and smart and a great Democrat; he will help to bring back the proud tradition of Alaska Democrats in the mold of Bill Egan, Ernest Gruening, and Bob Bartlett. We need him now,
And he needs contributions; Young already has $2 million in his campaign account, while Jake is starting from scratch. Donations can be made through "Act Blue" at:
