ReplyDeleteHave you made an endorsement for mayor as of yet? Also what about DC statehood for a topic?
ReplyDeleteHateful: For Mayor, moi. Oh, wrong answer....What I do know is that I don't want Orange. Unfortunately, I haven't made it to any of the mayoral debates yet, and you know how debates get me all hot and bothered :)
ReplyDeleteOn DC Statehood - yes, I absolutely want to address that, and I will one of these days (I have such a back-log at this point). But in the meantime, I suggest signing up for DC Vote's mailing list, and pretend the messages are being sent by me.
You need to redate this thing if you are going to repost it.
ReplyDeleteMy apologies - I'm having some issues with older posts in the conversion to Blogger Beta. I'm in the midst of going back and labeling all my older posts and should be done by today or tomorrow.
