    Jeffro,

    How is buying up foreclosed homes acting like a "vulture?" Would you prohibit investors from buying up these neglected homes and let them just sit there owned by the bank while weeds grow? David is helping improve these kinds of homes instead of letting them go to waste for years while the market has tanked. He fixes them up then rents them out in a lot better condition than if they were to just sit there owned by banks.

    As for the poll, it doesn't matter that it was a conservative group, similar polls by Gallup, Time, etc. show him winning by equally large margins. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/generic_congressional_vote-901.html

    @Arizona Roger- That poll was by a conservative group, the American Action Forum. CD-5 voters know better than to believe that garbage and the trash spouted by Schweikert's campaign.

    David is asking the voters to elect him while he's buying their houses as a vulture investor. I don't think voters are going to like that!

    I don't think David is electable. Especially with all of the foreclosure stuff coming out and the news coming out about how his company served an eviction notice to a 12 year old girl. Disgusting. http://www.yourlosshisgain.com/img/SchweikertEvictsRenter.pdf

    I dont see how you can Mitchell went negative. He is alerting the public to what Schweikert has been doing for the last 2 years and that is taking advantage of people in foreclosure. He is making money because the economy is bad and people are losing their homes! What a slimeball. Once the voters of CD-5 know this campaign will never get off the ground!!

    Harry Mitchell is toast. He voted for Obamacare, some of the TARP bailouts, and cardcheck. He doesn't support SB1070, which is even more popular in Arizona than it is in the rest of the country. He votes with Pelosi and the Obama administration and ignores the nonstop Tea Party protests outside his office, he doesn’t represent his Republican-leaning district. He is completely bought and paid for by the unions (http://epaper.aztrib.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref=RVZULzIwMDcvMDMvMTIjQXIwMzgwMQ==&Mode=HTML&Locale=english-skin-custom) epository/ml.asp?Ref=RVZULzIwMDcvMDMvMTIjQXIwMzgwMQ==&Mode=HTML&Locale=english-skin-custom) Fortunately he is polling at only 44% and challenger David Schweikert is polling at a whopping 50% - really bad news for an incumbent at this point in the race. Schweikert is polling higher than most Republicans challenging Democrats around the country. With early ballots going out in the mail in less than a month, there is virtually no way Mitchell can catch up to Schweikert, there are too few undecided voters. The Democrats aren't likely to try and pour money into the race at this point to save him - http://www.espressopundit.com/2010/09/dnr.html
