2. I wish she would have shown up at the local candidates forum.

Matt Miller, Ted Lieu, David Kanuth, and Wendy Greuel all got their asses out to this rather large meeting of progressive activists. There were a couple of others who couldn't make it but at least provided literature. NOTHING from Marianne Williamson. She's not acting like she really wants it. She's behaving almost as though she expects some sort of coronation by acclamation. NO WAY! If she wants my vote she really ought to be out working for it. Putting forth an effort. I was very disappointed that there was NOTHING from her. Not even a campaign worker or spokesman to be there at least to put forth even a modicum of an appearance. EFFORT. Put in the EFFORT. You should have seen some of them working the room before the panel discussion was called to order. The takeaway from that is - sheesh - these people REALLY WANT This! They want my vote and they're willing to fight for it and put themselves out for it.

That carries tremendous weight with me.
