6. They were here yesterday - finally
I was headed out of my house yesterday when a young man who was standing in the street looking a bit lost saw us. He came up and asked for a minute apologizing that he saw we were headed out. I asked him what he wanted and he said he wanted to tell us about Kratovil. I took my hand and held it out for him to shake saying to him "Welcome young man. It's about time." I could see him relax. We talked for a while and I ranted about Harris. He said he has been amazed at how many people are telling him the same thing. It is an old neighborhood with many people over 80. The day of the primary we had an ice storm that kept vulnerable people away from the polls. People trusted Gilchrest even if he was Republican. He now has endorsed Kratovil. That is a reflection of how Gilchrest, a fine man, was trash and destroyed by the neo-con-in-the-extreme Harris. No signs were up for Kratovil around here before yesterday. Obama signs have appeared in the last week. You see I live in an area that is almost all DOD and skinheads. I think liberals are a silent group for their own sanity. Kratovil deserves the win; let's hope it happens.
