He not only created the first My Space campaign in Humboldt politics, he created my Web Page, my leaf, all radio and TV ads, and was the primary fund raiser for the Marks for Supervisor campaign. I am still indebted to his energy and suggestions. Hoodwinked? He reminded me daily I had no chance. Cheerleader he was not. Shane is a realist. I respect that in him. I still respect him and hope he will be a friend in the future, but by his posts, I don't know if that will happen again.samoasoftballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06244238117702878406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30719375.post-1164771463103764162006-11-28T19:37:00.000-08:002006-11-28T19:37:00.000-08:00Yep Richard, I have to agree with 3:39.You brought...Yep Richard, I have to agree with 3:39.<BR/><BR/>You brought the child to my house early on and he was singularly unimpressive (you however, were not and had substance)...remember, he didn't even give up his last name.<BR/><BR/>So he gets a little authority and becomes a "power player" A classical example of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing...the same principle applies to a little integrity.<BR/><BR/>I just question what qualifies this diminimus demigogue to have an opinion on anything.<BR/><BR/>Show me something Shane.

Splitting the vote doesn't mean anything with a run-off, and you're also right that you had more of a chance of eliminating Fleming that Neely.
