FRC Action PAC Celebrates Victories in Virginia and New Jersey

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Family Research Council Action
opened it's political action committee in September of 2008 and is celebrating
its already excellent record in off-year elections in New Jersey and Virginia.

"Americans took a serious look at what President Obama really meant by his
promise of 'change.' They learned that his change includes pushing mainstream
America to accept radical government takeovers, higher taxes, and a worldview
that rejects a common sense approach to cultural issues," said Connie Mackey,
President of the FRC Action PAC. "The victory for conservatives in these
elections amounts to a clear repudiation of that agenda.

"We were proud to support many pro-family candidates. We congratulate each of
them for running effective campaigns and look forward to working with them in
the future," Mackey said. Following is a list of the candidates FRC Action
PAC endorsed:

New Jersey Governor-elect Chris Christie: "We endorsed him for governor of
New Jersey so he could fight to bring real change for New Jersey families. As
a U.S. Attorney he fought corrupt politicians, advocated for school vouchers,
smaller government, and pro-life legislation."

Virginia Governor-elect Bob McDonnell: "We supported him for governor of
Virginia because of his work on behalf of life when he was a state legislator
and as Attorney General of Virginia. To highlight the difference between the
candidates we aired a television ad throughout Southern Virginia asking,
'Which is the real Creigh Deeds?'."

Virginia Attorney General-elect Ken Cuccinelli: "We endorsed him for Attorney
General of Virginia for his yeoman's work on behalf of conservative principles
and his unwavering stance for life. Ken is a courageous champion of faith,
family and freedom and will be a potent force for good in the Virginia AG's
office."

Virginia Delegate Bob Marshall: "We supported his re-election campaign
financially because of his dedicated work on behalf of life and marriage in
the Virginia House of Delegates."

"We supported and contributed financially to the winning Virginia statehouse
campaigns of Barbara Comstock, Danny Marshall, Rich Anderson and Scott Garrett
as well. We are confident they will champion pro-family and pro-life causes
in the General Assembly."

"Last night's victory was not just a win for FRC Action PAC, but a win for
families in New Jersey and Virginia," concluded Mrs. Mackey.
