Who Actually Showed Up?
After about a month of standing invitations to all three, then an extension to the fourth gubernatorial candidate when he declared, I was very happy to see and hear two of them who accepted the county D party invitation this past week. Mr LaFollette and Ms Vinehout attended and both spoke eloquently and emphatically and took the time to answer all questions. It is a shame that we cannot pick two in the primary and that they are both running for the same office. As this was a local party sponsored free buffet in a rural area and not a $200 a plate single candidate sponsored promotion(the reason I suspect that neither of the other two candidates showed) I have narrowed my potential choices in the primary by half. One of them is a very energetic, well spoken and intelligent woman.
