I totally understand. This is now the third Senate campaign I've volunteered in to rid us of the sleaziest self-serving politician we have ever had.

Actually, with the indep. thing I wouldn't go as far as you do regarding the best interest of SD. I told campaign staff that we all need to be reminded that this is not a SD State Senate position being sought. It is the United States of America Senate position. We need some real leadership for our Country, not just our State. What is best for our country on gay marriage, on conservative judges, on ethanol, on continued propping up of certain industries and not others. We've got to be willing to carry our load and sacrifice for our country. My God we are in serious times. Look what our forefathers have done for the good old US of A when they needed to. Gosh, we're just poor stepchildren of those great men and women.

That's all.

Personally I agree with all you have said above and would prefer that was our winning message. However, after closely following the SD 2002 Senate race and reading numerous articles quoting "Republicans" in your state, I am not so sure. They seem to be so concerned about the "clout" of their little state and the personal enrichment that a powerful Senator brings them, regardless of the harm he does to the rest of us. There is a selfish streak there that makes Daschole hard to defeat and your honest approach very risky.

JMHO from very far away.
