Heather Wilson Love

Heather Wilson

The Anchoress has a splendid post on my very own Representative, Heather Wilson (R-NM), whom I proudly voted for in 2006. While she upsets many conservatives with her McCain-esque positions (NR likes to slam her quite frequently), it should be remembered that Albuquerque –the urban heart of her district– is a politically divided city. Her cross-appeal to female Democrats has often made the difference in defeating strong Democratic challengers. At heart she’s a conservative and is thus enormously infuriating to Democrats who see the 1st District as being naturally theirs. However, I’d like to keep her where she is in the House. Let Steve Pearce take the fall against popular Tom Udall for Domenici’s Senate seat.

    Apparently, Heather Wilson is running for the Senate in 2008. (See http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/wilson-to-seek-senate-seat-2007-10-05.html.) I’d still like to see her as the 2008 Vice Presidential candidate.

    Following is the request I’ve sent to Senator McCain in two ways:

    1) http://mccain.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Contact.ContactForm (Topic, “Request/General”);

    2)

    Here’s my request, and feel free to copy it and submit it yourself:

    To Senator John McCain:

    Please select Heather Wilson, Representative from New Mexico, as your Vice Presidential running mate. She would be the perfect VP candidate. She has The Right Stuff, including “star power” at least equal to that of Barack Obama. Her voting record is outstanding. Her public personae is phenomenally appealing. When answering questions from a live audience, while also being televised, her poise, presence and focus are total and mesmerizing. She’s the most articulate politician in my memory. Her explanations are exceptionally convincing. Her breadth and depth of interest and involvement in issues are enthralling. Overall, she eclipses all other prospective Vice Presidential candidates.

    Heather Wilson must be given more exposure nationally. Give her the keynote speech at the convention, and give her the VP nomination!

    Thank you.

    Just heard cuts of Heather Wilson on Hardball.  And I’d like to second Barbara’s nomination of Ms. Wilson as McCain’s VP.

    To Mike on seconding the nomintion of Heather Wilson as McCain’s  VP:  It would be helpful if you would express that thought to the McCain campaign at http://www.johnmccain.com/Contact.   If he hears it from enough people, he might consider it.
