While I agree with your bases for judging your representatives, I'd add one more: who was displaced by their election.<BR/><BR/>In Marsden's case, I was more than happy to work for him to keep Golden out.<BR/><BR/>In Chap's case, the prospect of ejecting Jeannemarie and seriously denting Tom were themselves reasons enough for me to work for Chap.<BR/><BR/>I hope those who vote for the losing candidate in the Dem primary in VA-11 can swallow their pride, hold their nose, or do whatever it takes to keep Fimian out of Congress.jsrutsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02654768134122158101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10563856.post-59707253220063437032008-03-29T16:32:00.000-04:002008-03-29T16:32:00.000-04:00Word on the street is that anybody can make any ba...Word on the street is that anybody can make any baseless claim and not sign it. When you've got more than innuendo and rumor, probably from one of her opponents' camps, and can back it up with sources and your own name, please see me.<BR/><BR/>And jsrutstein, more than likely your delegate has indeed gone to the darkside and probably not for the first time. Most of those delegates endorsing Gerry also endorsed Harris Miller, which helped his campaign so much too.<BR/><BR/>Seriously, I wouldn't hold it against a delegate you might otherwise like. In politics, people owe others favors, have outstanding chits that get called in, and just have prior relationships with a candidate. <BR/><BR/>Some people even endorse out of personal friendship and loyalty to somebody. I'd judge my delegate and state senator based on what they stand for and how well they deliver on their own pledges, not on whom they've endorsed.Karen Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13954405672195734097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10563856.post-53492107390066110952008-03-28T23:50:00.000-04:002008-03-28T23:50:00.000-04:00Word on the street is that Leslie is claiming endo...Word on the street is that Leslie is claiming endorsements from folks who haven't really endorsed her - just like she did in '94.<BR/><BR/>Her campaign is starting to unravel.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10563856.post-36786854577801371112008-03-28T17:21:00.000-04:002008-03-28T17:21:00.000-04:00Don't tell me my Delegate has joined the dark side...Don't tell me my Delegate has joined the dark side and endorsed Darth Connolly!jsrutsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02654768134122158101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10563856.post-91664147093061867702008-03-28T16:35:00.000-04:002008-03-28T16:35:00.000-04:00Can anybody control Ben Tribbett's shrill attacks ...Can anybody control Ben Tribbett's shrill attacks - and why would anybody want to?
