Best political story I ever saw in this publication, or any regional one, was the one about Stupak's DC "frathouse" and the contents of his personal trunk there. Made a point of circulating it to friends around the country, for Stupak was in the national news at that point.
Keep us informed, Dave! I also like your occasional pieces on how you see the local & state political scene. |
