A guy named Jim Pruett is running for Congress in my district and he thinks we all should have health care. That's a downright crazy communist in these parts. I seriously doubt we'll send a Dem to the House from here, though. All of them are doomed before they even get out of the primary. But I'll keep voting for them. One of these days it could happen, and I'm glad Dems still run here despite the steep odds.
