He has done nothing for the people of his district. Peter King can fool some people but he cant fool me. I hear people say that he is a Moderate which is so far from the truth. Lets hope that comes November you will be representing us in the US House of Representatives. I look forward to supporting your campaign in whatever way I can.</p> <p>God Bless your family for giving us a great Son.</p> <p> Regards,<br /> Cecil Graham.</p> Hi Dave just want to express my support for your Campaign to unseat Rep Peter King.

Shameless coward King he is.

With King, if it is the two or three issues he actually disagrees with Bush & his hard right wing loonies iN Congress on, he canhave a civil debate.

He is now allinged with the far right of the GOP and has to go.

Dave,

I am from your LD, despite residing in the Massapequa SD, and having a Mass PK mailing address (gottaa love the way our brders are drawn :). voted for your legislative victory last year (as away in college during your election victory)

Anyway I voted for your re-election to the legislator last year (was away @ college in 03, during your first legislative run.

You are certaintly going to get my vote this year. I never liked Peter King, and he always was very aarogant and his voting record, however hidden has been disgusting.
