Wayne Powell-The Final Word AND an URGENT request:



'I am going to try to cut right to the chase. Eric Cantor doesn't want us to get the truth out about his record.

Eric Cantor and his fat cat friends think they can continue to buy their way into Congress. Their latest attack against Wayne is glossy slick mailers in your mailbox that are full of dishonesty.

We have a big ad buy deadline this Friday. We need $5,423 by then to make sure that, for every attack Cantor and his allies launch, we are able to fight back.

Any amount you give will make us more of a force to be reckoned with.

We are really beginning to get to him. In fact one of Cantor’s senior advisors said Wayne is the most serious challenge that Cantor has seen in a decade. He is scared and trying to drown us out. Don’t let him.

Donate now and make sure that Wayne gets his message out so the people of the 7th have a real choice.

Your support means everything to us. Your help is what will help us win in November.'

Yes, bless his heart. He's got 14,700 'friends' on fb, hundreds of 'likes' with his posts from all over the country. PRAY it translates to coverage in 7th District, and VOTES!!!

Constant 84 degrees Still for months.. and a walking sauna and running sauna. But, I can't complain because I wanted to get away from New York winters!

Now I miss the Seasons.. ideally I would have enough money to have both..but, it's either or for me..so here I am..stuck in paradise trying to make the best of it!

after high school graduation, before Poipu built up.
New Yorker here, like the seasons, and understand being stuck in one place or the other. Dad LOVED Hawaii, @ Pearl during the war, brought us back to share. Dad was born in NY, and moved to Florida to get away from New York winters!

My son's been here since '85 after graduating from high school..so wanted to be around him, too. I arrived here the first time in '92 just in time for Iniki and stayed for 6 years before I took off for New York for 12 years. Got to be around my sister and meet some good friends back East. Now I'm back on Kaua'i since 2010, retired, and living in Kapaa two blocks from the bike trail and Ocean. But, can't seem to stay away from the political boards during this Crisis Time in our Country!
