Larry Schweikart, FR's "LS", should take a bow.

[Lazamataz]

Larry Schweikart, our own 'LS', kept assuring us -- often with hard facts and polling information -- the we would win. He would post little 'insider baseball' tidbits that gave me -- among other people -- hope. In the onslaught of biased polling, I became rather dispirited. I fully intended to vote no matter what, but I went into the evening almost convinced ClinSatan would steal it. However, during the election itself, he kept popping up and telling us to stop being so *wrecked* every time a state flipped back to Dem.

I kept looking up LS, and reading his material. He gave me hope when I felt hopeless.

This thread is intended to honor a great and intelligent Freeper, Mr. LS.

Sir, thank you for all you do. I am honored to call you 'FRiend'.

[Lazamataz]

For you.

[BlessedBeGod]

Thank you, LS. I always looked forward to your posts.

L$. On the money all night.

Larry! You magnificent SOB! I read your books! LOL!

Hear! Hear!

I would read a post from LS, then go in to check on my wife.

I started correcting whatever the talking head was saying, based on Larry’s info, and sure enough the talking head would change their story shortly to whatever I just told her.

Thank you, Larry!

Pinging FR’s Gold Team to give LS a little shout out. :)

[goodnesswins]

Yes! He kept the faith (with awesome research) and helped me stay sane.

[TTFX]

I recall some imbecile last night here saying LS should retire.

[TADSLOS]

Hear, Hear!!

[MNJohnnie]

Absolutely. Take your victory lap LS, your earned it.

[ColdOne]

Yes he should!

[Lazamataz]

I saw that. I wish I could remember his name to drop him into this thread. LOL

[trisham]

I couldn’t agree more. I sent him a private message (love letter?) this morning. :)

He’s awesome.

I join you in thanking LS. I had no idea who he was, and am glad to have a chance to let him know how much I appreciate his mails and posts.

God Bless him and keep him.

Congrats LS, from your fellow OHian - it was never in doubt here was it?

[DarthVader]

Larry was right on!!

[Lazamataz]

Larry is overqualified to be on Free Republic, but I’m glad he’s here. :)
