First - I don't have any answers for you.
Last election I was a strong Keyster and I was angry he was ignored and poo-poo'd by both the GOP and the media. I was also quite disappointed that Keyes was not offered a high ranking position of the Bush cabinet (and to think Christy Whitman is a member of the Bush team!)
