Dana St. George and Gerry Gras met with him on our behalf. After the
meeting Dana's comment was something along the lines "I had total
culture clash with him." I read several articles about the race and
nothing I saw made me want to insert my Mountain View based efforts
into the race on his behalf.

If Debbie Mytels had wanted help with her campaign, I would have walked
at least four or five precincts for her. This was the first fall I
didn't help ANY candidates in many years. I was jonesing to get out 
there, but nobody wanted my help that I wanted to help.

BTW: Anybody know how Don Havis up in San Mateo County is doing?

banner. The peacock in the network logo was all green. I was surprised.
