Our country desperately needs a person of intelligence on Pennsylvania Avenue while we still have a semblance of a country, which seems to be more in doubt every day. And we are more than overdue for a woman in the top spot, but not Hillary, please God. The woman is admittedly smarter than Bush (as is my cat,) but she is evil. (My cat is not.)<br /><br />I understand the great sacrifice that you and your family would be called upon to make, but beg you to reconsider your decision. Think of your civic duty. Think of the great trips on Air Force One. Think of the ball gowns. <br /><br />And should you decide to accept this mission, I would like to be the first to interview you (on Air Force One in a ball gown.)heartinsanfranciscohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13014770509224068340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-11757554436537291462007-01-26T07:13:00.000-08:002007-01-26T07:13:00.000-08:002007-01-26T07:13:00.000-08:00well said!Jonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15301821696895686537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-46316890376752625262007-01-26T05:10:00.000-08:002007-01-26T05:10:00.000-08:002007-01-26T05:10:00.000-08:00thank you, this provided exactly the laugh i needed this morning. though, i feel that it should be accompanied by a cozy looking video of you surrounded by your family who i'm sure all support you in this important decision.robynwww.tabibi.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-16672194049117222102007-01-25T20:58:00.000-08:002007-01-25T20:58:00.000-08:002007-01-25T20:58:00.000-08:00Liz,<br /><br />Last November, I faced the difficult decision of not writing myself in for a seat on the Chicago Water Board. I had to make my decision quickly, and ultimately came to the same conclusions you have reached with your Presidential bid.<br /><br />I applaud your courage and bravery in reaching the conclusion of what I imagine to have been a great deal of soul-searching and reflection.<br /><br />Do you still have any of the funds raised by the pre-exploratory committee? Would you share them with an almost former write-in candidate for somewhat public office? <br /><br />I could really use the dough, is all...The Moon Toppleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12717446064777879248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010473.post-73140972737980407772007-01-25T16:22:00.000-08:002007-01-25T16:22:00.000-08:002007-01-25T16:22:00.000-08:00LOL!
