Virginia Reed? She's still alive?

I just LOVE it!
CD 14 Blogging Team is all over this site, offering CD 14 related comments no matter what the subject of the post.
But when Mayor Sam offers a post about CD 14, no one bothers.
Maybe that should send a message to the usual suspects, you know, the guys who incessantly post about the 80 Neighborhood Watches from two elections ago, and the Pacheco Bloggers who should be out walking precincts rather than their fingers doing the walking through the Mayor Sam pages.
Is it any wonder that Pacheco will be eating his heart out on election day?
candidates who showed:
Juan "Johnny Jay" Jimenez, NIck Pacheco , Eddie Sanchez, crystal Arceo ,, Paul Gonzales. Heckman.
Not too many folks showed up. But we had an edcuational experience nonetheless.
I personally think the candidates were a lttle not used to the format I chose. It wasn't that controlled. Thus the candidates personalities came out and we got to see some sides of them we normally would not have.
I was impressed with all of them and what they had to say.
I will post on my bog what happened.
These candidates know the neighborhood and I think they went away with a little better understanding of the issues facing our neighborhood.
Actually they are informed, big time.
I will post on my blog what happened.
I am exhausted right now.
