Mike,
I understand that, and believe me, I plan to say something about this
to the Hallinan campaign. If there is a silver lining in this, it is
the emphasis it may give to the message that (A) Our voice can make a
difference, and (B) Don't take us for granted. Nevertheless, I still
think we blew it big time by recommending Fazio.
Yours in liberty,
<<< Starchild >>>
One more thing Starchild....while you are out there for Hallinan, make
sure he knows that the reason we are recommending Fazio is that he
took the time to respond and meet with us. Fazio lost by 600 votes
last time. Our recommendation could make a difference. If Fazio wins,
we will have a friend of some sort who will at least take our calls in
my opinion. Whereas if Hallinan wins, we will have someone who still
won't talk with us...just like we do now.Mike

The vote on D.A. was a major mistake, in my opinion, and I am
embarrassed to see the LPSF taking such a position. I will be out
volunteering for Terence Hallinan.
