  Gordon's summed it up ...

  But, as an San Diego North County independent who can't remember the last time I voted down one party's line, I've had it with the National Republican Party. I am sick and tired of the overwhelming negativity and fear that they have tried to inflict on us through mailers, but especially through phone messages left on my answering machine.

  So, it was surprising, a few days ago, to get a phone message from one of Busby's supporters that was actually positive, polite, and about the candidate. And that, since then, I have gotten phone calls from live people working for the Busby campaign.

  So, for the first time in my life, I am going to go out tomorrow to stump for a politician, Francine Busby. I'd like to see change in D.C. and I have to accept that if it's going to happen, it's going to have to start here in District 50. Please wish us luck, because, let's be real, this district still has more registered Republicans than registered Democrats.

  NOTE: The television ads from the national political parties have been "make me sick to my stomach" awful. As for Bilbray, he's been such a one note monkey these past few weeks. I guess if he tried to talk about other issues, or heaven forbid, ethics, no one would buy it. But, it's too bad his moderate stance on social issues would turn hard line Republicans against him. As an independent, I might have considered voting for him.
