LOL Yep. I'm a friend of Joe's. He's crazy as a lark, but a genuinely good guy.

Shays had a nice run but his time has pased. I'm no fan of McMahon, but there is no way Shays has a chance against Murphy. He couldn't fend off Himes in what is arguabley the most Republican district in the state.

There are many nice ladies in this state. It does not mean they should be elected or be able to do a good job. Jay

McMahon has a 20 point lead which is hard to believe. The problem all over this country is that hardly anyone bothers to vote in the primaries which allows people like her to get their foot in the political door.

Sad.

It makes me sick that she can buy into an election. Disgusting.

I can tell you that this is one primary I am voting in just to not have her on the ballot. Maybe it won't make a big difference but at least I tried. On Saturday a very nice young girl stopped by our house to ask if we will vote for Linda and I told her no. Did not like doing that but I really do not like her or what she represents. Maybe I should just change party affiliations. Jay

That's what the GOP has been successful at doing: getting moderate Republicans to switch to Independents. That being said, most I's I know will NOT vote Democrat this year.
