I just hear this headline being read on TV and it really got my attention:

The candidate (I think it was Santorum but was not paying attention) is leading in all categories except women. The fact that fifty percent of all voters are women, this should be really bad news. However, in the circus that is is known as the republican presidential race, I feel sure this the statistic would hold true for all the candidates.

I think this is going to be a great election for the democrats.

So is Foster Friess

connected to the fast food chain Foster Freeze. I feel so stupid, I told my husband he was the founder of that company. I had wondered why no one was suggesting a boycott of this business but it seems like they are not connected. Duh.

There is a great new candidate running against Tom McClintock in district 4 in California

I met him this weekend and he really impressed me. and I really think he has what it takes to win He is currently getting signatures to get on the ballot and if he gets enough (which he definitely will) it will save the cost of a filing fee. His name is Jack Uppal and his web site is www.jackuppal.com/

I certainly cannot speak for his campaign but I am sure he would welcome all the help that DU members can give him. It would be great if we could finally say goodbye to Tom the carpetbagger.
