Thank You and Congratulations

posted: February 03, 2010 • Categories: Campaign Updates • Comments: 2

While I’m disappointed that we lost yesterday’s primary, I was so blessed by the support, encouragement and prayers I received throughout the campaign that I feel great. So many of you gave so much to this campaign, and I’m humbled and grateful. Thank you.

I also want to congratulate my friend Chris Nybo. I called him last night to congratulate him, but I want you all to know how I feel. While we were opponents in the primary race, I’ve known Chris for a long time. I know he’ll be a great candidate in this next leg of the race and am certain he’ll make a great representative.

While the Primary was the time for Republicans to highlight the nitty-gritty of what we disagree on, in this next stretch we need to focus on the countless issues we do agree on. So I encourage you all to congratulate Chris as well—and to be on the lookout for his next steps in the campaign.

Thanks again for your support and encouragement.
