I'll be honest...I was very pleasantly surprised with the traction this
issue developed.  It seemed to resonate with almost every group that I
spoke with, and I know Wendy had success in connecting with folks on
this issue.  Even the major parties took it up later in the campaign
(did they adopt/co-opt one of our issues...we can only hope).  A local
candidate with some knowledge of this issue could do very well in a
number of counties in this state.

And yes, I am thinking of that...very seriously.
