The Bell County Democrats have some good ideas and some very knowledgable people. It would be great to get some more people out there to come in and join the group. There are also the BCATS (Bell County Action Team) who are definitely less conversation and more action!
So how do we energize Bell County?

The Democrats need to come up with a nominee that can defeat the current district attorney for Bell county! This "Mike Nifong" in the making has got to be replaced. The Democrats are gaining huge support, so the time is now! There has to be someone who can do a better job.
