Do you think after this they'll change their mind?
I'm not sure. If they really take the time to digest it, they'd almost have to, wouldn't they? They aren't bitterly partisan at the paper by any means.
I'll send it anonymously and hope they read it; that's all I can do at this point. I wrote a letter to the editor last week about this matter and they haven't published it because they don't agree with it. LOL
This is a small town and they publish all my letters because no one else writes them :-)
