"Politicians are like diapers. Both need to be changed regularly, and for the very same reason."
--Ronald Wilson Reagan
Well, the people have spoken and even though Genessee County seems to be the exception to the rule in this state, enough of us to have come to our senses to cause the state of Michigan to turn red once again.
That in itself is not enough, we must hold our new leaders accountable and keep up the vigilance...call, write, meet with your representatives and hold their feet to the fire. It is what we must do to keep our government from being the runaway train.
I did not win, but I am happy to have made a difference and I learned a lot in running for office the first time. I want to THANK YOU ALL for your help and your support. It's impossible to do something like this without many good people standing behind you.
Conservative Principles will never get old. Hearing a speech from Reagan in the sixties is as relevant today as it was then. We must keep the fight up for bringing sanity back to the government, and bringing government, again, back to the people.
I hope that you will continue to fight to make Michigan a working state once again, and restoring sanity to a state that needs to learn to live within its means.
We at least have a chance of that really happening now.
