how much we appreciate that. I firmly believe that none of this will get better until we have access to the Internet through out our state. I would bet a good 1/3 of this state and likely more only hear about politics from their church or (used to be Rush) some RWNJ on the satellite radio in their tractor that they hear for hour after hour after hour. The Dems rarely go out to these areas. When we had the money, thank you Dr. Dean and your 50 state solution, we had more Dems here than ever before. Now we are back to an almost total R state. It is sad and hard but we all still work at it from some angle trying to make it better.

Thank you. I know we would help you if the tables were turned. The gifts in this state are always shared.
