ZOGBY POLL SHOWS LONG DECISIVELY BEATING GRAYSON
Conservative Ahead 46%-38% with 17-Point Lead Among Independents

Orlando—Today, conservative Republican Todd Long held a press conference on the steps of Democrat Alan Grayson’s office and announced the results of a July Zogby poll showing Long with an eight-point lead over Alan Grayson (D-FL) 46%-38%. The results also show Long with a commanding 17-point lead among independents in a district where independents make up about 30% of the vote.

“It is now clear that a vote for Todd Long in the Republican Primary sends Alan Grayson home in November. The voters in District Eight have decided which conservative can beat Grayson. It is time for people who want conservative, commons-sense solutions to our national challenges to come together and remove this self-serving socialist who is intent on helping Nancy Pelosi destroy our great nation,” said Long.

ARIZONA IMMIGRATION LAW SPONSOR ENDORSES LONG
State Senator, Immigration Enforcement Leader Knows Who Will Fight Against Amnesty In Washington

Orlando—Today, Arizona State Senator Russell Pearce, the author of SB1070, Arizona’s new immigration law, endorsed Todd Long in his bid to unseat freshman lawmaker Alan Grayson (D-FL). Pearce was one of the headliners at Long’s Support Arizona rally earlier this month and is one of the most outspoken advocates against illegal immigration. Senator Pearce joins Sheriff Joe Arpaio, former Presidential candidate Tom Tancredo, and Congressman Steve King (Iowa) in supporting Long who has been leading an aggressive fight against illegal immigration and amnesty.

“We must stay vigilant in the defense of our Constitutional liberties, freedom and the rule of law. We are a nation of laws. We must have the courage – the fortitude – to enforce, with compassion but without apology, those laws that protect the integrity of our borders and the rights of our lawful citizens,” said Senator Russell Pearce.
“I happily offer my full endorsement and support to Todd Long in his run for Congress. In Todd, I see a conservative who fights with the warrior spirit of our Founders and that is what America needs right now,” Pearce continued. “I ask the people of the Eighth District of Florida to send Todd to Washington to fight against illegal immigration and help us finally put an end to this growing crisis.”

Long said, “It was Thomas Jefferson who told us that the execution of our laws is more important than the making of them. One of the few legitimate functions of our federal government is to protect our borders and our sovereignty and thus far the federal government has been derelict in its duty. I want to thank Senator Pearce for his support and I promise him and the people of the Eighth District that I will fight tirelessly to secure our borders, make sure American jobs go to American citizens, and stand up for the rule of law.”

Long recently led a cross-country road trip to Arizona for a rally to support the Arizona law at Bolin Memorial Park across from the Arizona State Capitol. The Arizona rally was the last in a series of rallies that began in Orlando with stops in Houston and Las Cruces.

SHERIFF JOE ARPAIO ENDORSES TODD LONG
America’s Sheriff Sees Fighter, Leader in Long

Orlando—Today, Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, offered his endorsement to Todd Long in his bid to replace Congressman Alan Grayson (D-FL). Sheriff Arpaio is a nationally recognized leader in the immigration enforcement movement and has been fighting to secure our borders his entire career. Arpaio recently appeared at a rally in Phoenix to support Arizona and their new immigration law which was held by Long and local Tea Party activists.

“I am proud to offer my endorsement to Todd Long in his run for Congress. Todd is going to go to Washington and lead the fight against amnesty and to secure our borders,” said Arpaio. “With Todd fighting in Congress, we will have a better chance of reversing course and saving our Republic.”

Long said, “I admire Sheriff Joe so much because he gets things done and fights the courageous fight to keep Americans safe every single day. We know that President Obama is going to jam amnesty down our throats after this 2010 election. Our message is clear: The party is over!”

“I am the only candidate in this race fighting against amnesty and illegal immigration because I know how devastating it has been to our nation. I know that if we do not prevail on this issue, we will lose on all our other issues as well and become a bankrupt, government-dependent nation with a very low standard of living for its citizens. We will not be fooled any longer by these Republican candidates who are funded by big business, like illegal immigration and want cheap, illegal labor. The Conservative Comeback’s time has come!”

Glenn Beck’s Favorite Congressman Hopes for a Conservative Comeback in FL-8

Orlando, FL/Kiron, IA—Today, Congressman Steve King (R-IA,) a leader in the fight to stop Obamacare, endorsed conservative Todd Long in his bid to unseat Alan Grayson (D-FL). King and Long are in agreement on key issues facing our nation, including: the Fair Tax, a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution, and 100% repeal of Obamacare.

Todd is that man and I ask Floridians to send Todd Long to Washington to join me in putting Congress back on its rightful constitutional foundation,” said King.

“Congressman King is a warrior for the conservative cause. This is why Glenn Beck sings his praises and why his endorsement means so much to me. If the people send me to Washington, I hope to join Steve King, and others who are leading the way,” said Long.

Congressman Steve King will host a fundraiser for Long on, April 12, 2010 in Orlando after the Tea Party event at City Hall.

LONG ENDORSES RUBIO
Calls on Fellow Candidates to do Likewise
Conservative Republican candidate for U.S. Congress, District 8, Todd Long announced his formal endorsement of Marco Rubio today and called upon all of his fellow primary challengers to do the same. “Marco appeared on my radio show The Conservative Comeback several times and I have been supporting his campaign from the outset,” said Long. “We both share the same vision and values of our Founders and Reagan. Marco is a true warrior who will fight for solutions based on these values.”
“I wrote in my book, The Conservative Comeback, that the Rubio vs. Crist race would be the first important battle for the soul of the Republican Party. I call on my fellow primary challengers to endorse Rubio to ensure that solution-oriented conservatism is alive and well in the U.S. Senate,” Long added.
