Hopefully things will look better in the morning but if they dont….be proud you’ve put yourself into the arena and clearly made some waves…that’s a win! No regrets, you’re a stand-up guy with integrity and experience….I salute you sir!


I would agree. It seems like political positions are bought and paid for by people who profit from the politician of their choice.

While the results weren’t even close to what I expected, or hoped for I’m still proud for having given it my best shot. My deepest, heartfelt thanks to all my SIGforum family for your support!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Sorry to hear about that. It sounds like this other guy will likely fail from lack of experience and qualifications, so when you run again, if you choose to, you will likely beat him. You can hold your head high because you ran a clean campaign and had the best interest of your community at heart.

So sorry to hear that you were not successful in your campaign but we know that you gave it a good shot and ran a honest campaign... Now the people will have to live with the less qualified person until the next election.. Politics is a dirty game. ........ drill sgt.

It is we, the. SIGforum family, who hold you in the highest regard no matter the outcome.


From literature I recall a Japanese poem I’ll paraphrase (badly):

An osprey swoops down
Rising with empty talons
To swoop down again

Once again, you have my respect.
