when it comes to haley barbour, i'll bet a dollar against 100 that a strong letter writing campaign thumping him for not joining in the boycott over the death of an american citizen traveling overseas will cause a quick change of face...he's deservedly over the grill anyway on other issues, and this one can win votes for him with no bucks or problems; its an easy and popular move...but he HAS to be told that votes are on the line, and by more than just one or two people (my own letter went out today) and that he needs to wake up and realize that even with the Hurricane Katrina damage, his constituents are interested in this issue and can prove it next time around the poll booth...we might be without homes, but the Holloways are without a daughter
Good point nuntuk. I think your right. There needs to be a significant amount of letters but they WILL work. These guys only care really about keeping their snouts in the public trough. The thought of losing that gets action every time. Besides, Dave Holloway is one of his States residents. He shouldn't even HAVE to be subjected to a letter writing campaign to do the right thing!!
