Please, for the love of God Freepers, we need to get this out there.

As some of you know, I was a huge Simon cheerleader on FR during the primary. As others know, I've gone toe to toe with the Berkeley and San Francisco Left in protests these past few years.

Today, I went to support Bill during one of his campaign stops. The location? Watts (in LA). The union thugs were there too, as always, howling away.

We need to recapture the feeling of success and potential that we had on primary night as we watched Riordan be trampled, when Bill proclaimed "it's morning in California." There are still three whole months until election day, and as it gets closer, it's going to get worse- Davis, with the press as his willing servants, will become ever more desparate to stay in office. It will become loud, and hard.

Every one of us needs not only to vote, but to convince other people to vote for Simon, because I am scared of what four more years of Davis and the Democrats will be, and I am worried that, without our efforts, we will not succeed.

So pass this article on, and make sure that you write a letter to the editor of every newspaper in the greater area at least once a week. They probably won't print most of them, but enough will, and it might just save California.

Excellent advice ... having seen you in awhile, Clam. Glad you're still around!

Clam is right ... some of us just can't get out and support Simon on the streets, but you know the old cliche, the Pen is mightier than the Sword. Every one of us need to be writing letters to the editor, and encouraging our friends to write as well. Even helping them. If we can all make the personal commitment to write one letter a week MINIMUM, we can do a lot of good. Whoever gets the first one published, post it on FR and we can start a thread of letters published ... I had one published in the primary, but I won't use that one.

Hey clam baby, good to see you on the board. (That's my LA mogul impression...)

"So pass this article on, and make sure that you write a letter to the editor of every newspaper in the greater area at least once a week. They probably won't print most of them, but enough will, and it might just save California."

Exactly. Not everyone can get out to counter the PAID union thugs shadowing our guy. But everyone can write a letter, and most everyone can write a check -- 10 bucks, 100, whatever. Davis is Boss Tweed -- for the first time in a century, the state government is for sale to the highest bidder. THAT's the issue. The consequences of losing this election are not the usual four years in purgatory. We lose this one, and the thugs will be in charge, perhaps permanently.

I would also be very interested, in knowing how you obtained information on Simon's Campaign Schedule -- When I called Simon's office, they (for whatever reason) couldn't give it to me!
