Great to hear from a local.

Are the churches getting activated yet?

Do reasonable middle-of-the-roaders seem to be waking up, yet?

What would you guess the percentage change might be so far in people who voted for the Traitor last time but who won't this time?

Sure appreciate your local insights in this series situation regarding such a hugh Traitor and idiot of the Republic.

The big problem was mentioned in the article. Last time he and Johnson ran on a platform plank that basically said, 'We've got position and power that South Dakota hasn't had before, so elect us and we'll keep that power." The voters found that attractive and it has been the primary reason for Daschle's re-elections since he gained power in the Senate. He lost the leadership last time, so...

All of the election races for the Senate and the House were none-the-less very, very close. Thune lost to Johnson by less than 500 votes...and many of those votes can be accounted for by the number of forgeries at the ballots. Daschle's race wasn't quite as close, but he had to work for it. If Janklow had run against him, he may have won. Janklow isn't always popular, but you always know where he stands and he'll work for the people of the state as hard as he worked for his personal estate. 'Though not a multi-millionaire as many other politicos are, he's worked for everything he has and the people of South Dakota appreciate that more than you may think. Thune will be looked on with some favor for not having spent the states funds in an expensive re-count or second election. He will have a better chance of election this go around if he runs, is the general consensus.

As far as churches go, I missed your meaning. I'm a little thick, sometimes.
