shua's pitch for the House

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

In my longstanding tradition of last minute campaign efforts, here's my pitch for re-election to the House.

I've been one of the most active members of the House since NCYankee asked me to step in mid-term. I've contributed amendments which I think most of those on both the right and the left would agree have improved the bills that have been put forward. I value my independence as a politician and a legislator.  I'm a conservative, small government person, but not an ideologue.   I'm concerned both by the abuses of big business and those of big government. I want to craft policies that recognize the full dignity and complexity of each human being.  I want to allow us all to reach our potential, while at the same time being responsible to the future in the use of our resources: financial, environmental, and cultural.

I hope you will consider a vote for me this weekend.

Endorsed for first or second preference!

[Maxwell]

You were the only right of center candidate (non-Talleyrand of course) to get a preference from me, so semi-endorsed friend.

[MyRescueKittehRocks]

Always endorsed Shua.

Looks like I didn't quite make it, but I'd like to thank those who voted for me.

Stay tuned.

[Leinad]

You objectively deserved re-election more than probably anyone else--I find it absurd that the voters didn't agree. C'est la vie.

Looks like I didn't quite make it, but I'd like to thank those who voted for me.

Stay tuned.

I'm in the same boat as you. We'll figure something out.

[NeverAgain]

Looks like I didn't quite make it, but I'd like to thank those who voted for me.

Stay tuned.

From across the aisle, you worked hard for things you believed in and took the issues on thoughtfully.

I thank you for your service.

thanks for the kind comments folks

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Perhaps in my pitch to you about taking the seat, I shouldn't have said, "It will only be for three or four weeks".

Anyway, I made the right choice when I appointed you to my/Goldwater's seat. As I expected, you did a great job as you always do. However, we seem to never be able to keep you there long enough.
