I have a friend who finds it funny that Schultz got only 3,426 votes in Crawford County when we had over 6,000 people vote. Schultz ran UNOPPOSED.

Words and Pictures
Pull up a seat and have a cup of something warm. Don't be afraid to talk about sex, politics, and religion- just not necessarily in that order.

What are you going to blog about now Ted? Will your column come back now that you have won? Or are you still saddened over Sueferts letter?
I'm saddened whenever anyone tries to marginalize or impugn me because I share opinions which I have thought out carefully and hold because I care deeply about our country. I didn't stop writing a column for the press because of JoAnn Suefert's tirade of a letter to the editor. I stopped because the whole climate and culture of the community where I live has been too polarized and too emotionally charged and for the sake of my family and loved ones I felt that it would be better not to 1) contribute to that polarization and 2) not subject those close to me to the same resentment, indignation and ridicule which I became a target of because of my opinions.
What will I blog about now? What does blogger blog about? I wish I could stop writing the way that an alcoholic wishes they could stop drinking. My column was never exclusively about John McCain, or even exclusively about politics. I'm sure life will present things that I'll find funny, things that I'll compulsively feel the need to analyze or draw attention to- and plenty of public figures and politicians that I'll want to scrutinize (including Steve King and Jason Schultz, but probably plenty of Democrats too- maybe even Barack Obama eventually).
I still don't know if I'll write a column in the PRESS again or if this blog will be the only yard I get to play in, but I've tried to stop writing altogether and it's bigger than I am.
Whoever you are, thank you for your comment, and thank you for reading- whether we ever agree on anything or not. I hope you get something out of it.
