From The Chairman?s Desk
Dear Friends,
Like so many of you, I have watched the first three debates of this year?s presidential election cycle with hopes that the American people would be presented with two clear choices for the direction of our nation and the leadership of our country. What we have seen, however, is only one choice, one direction forward and one leader that will return our nation to prosperity. With just twenty days to go, it is clear that Governor Mitt Romney is the leader that we need!
You see, despite President Obama?s campaign slogan of ?Forward,? his campaign has proven to be anything but forward-thinking. Last night, while Governor Romney clearly and concisely outlined his plans to move America forward over the next four years, President Obama failed yet-again to even discuss a second-term agenda. Preferring to resort to personal attacks, distortions and half-truths that even the most left-leaning of fact checkers couldn?t ignore, the President confirmed that the hope is gone and it is time for a change in leadership.

Letter from GAGOP Faith-Based Outreach Chairman Terri Green
Dear Fellow Republicans,
In less than a month, November 6th, 2012, we will be voting for our next President. My hope and prayer is that Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan will prevail. I can honestly say this is the most important election of our lifetime. Never before have so many issues been at the forefront as they are now in America today. It has been a battle of principles, issues, ideas and solutions. I have seen Baptists and Protestants standing with the Catholic Church because of the mandates in the Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare. We have witnessed the largest over reach of the federal government into the religious liberties of our brothers and sisters who are members of the Catholic Church.
Time and again President Obama has signaled a lack of concern, or even somewhat hostility, towards the Nation of Israel. His lackluster support and dismal outward concern for Israel?s security, is troublesome and could be one of the key driving forces in the political consequences of his defeat in November. In [Psalm 121:2-4] it says; My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip-indeed, he who watches over Israel will never slumber or sleep.

In the Headlines: Price seeks to tackle ?fiscal cliff? in 6th term
One of the major issues that will face U.S. Rep. Tom Price (R-Roswell) if he is elected to a sixth term will have to be dealt with almost as soon as he goes back to Washington.
Price?s spokesman said this week that the 6th District Congressman would be too busy for an interview with the Journal, but in emailed responses, Price acknowledged that the looming ?fiscal cliff? would do tremendous harm to the United States economy and military. The fiscal cliff involves tax increases and deep government spending cuts, many involving the military, which would go into effect if an agreement isn?t reached by the start of 2013.
?It would make irresponsible and indiscriminate cuts to our nation?s defense capabilities at a time when we face enormous challenges abroad,? Price, 58, wrote. ?It would weaken our economy by raising taxes and taking more money out of the pockets of struggling families and small businesses.?

Help Lead the Charge Today!
The Georgia Republican Party is fully committed to electing a Republican President in 2012. However, Victory won?t be achieved simply because we won the last elections. Victory can only be achieved by working hard each and every day to win the next elections. President Obama and the Democrats are targeting Georgia and could spend as much as $30 million to win our state. There?s too much at stake to leave this election to chance.?Please consider contributing $15, $25, $50 or any amount to help Georgia do its part to send Barack Obama back to Chicago!
