I was seriously thinking about it BUT I may have to work a local campaign again this fall. I figured I would not be as involved as I have been in the past few years BUT an "opportunity" has come up in Stafford. It's one of the most Democratic towns in eastern Connecticut and I helped a guy (Allen Bacchiochi) run in 2003 and he came very close but lost. Well, the guy he lost to announced a couple of days ago that he IS NOT seeking reelection so Allen wants to run again and I think this time he can win but it will be a HUGE battle. Open seats are always easier than running against an incumbent. I'm up for it so this will probably mean I will be too busy to make it to LOL V :smiley19:

Well, I've got a long going on now, but don't have enough time to take a 3 hour trip up there. I hadn't heard of it though. Next year I'll be sure to keep the date cleared though.
