    Sarah, Sarah When Build Your House Call Me Call Me

    Man, Sarah has you guys all shook up. But I know a lot of Sarahs. They're sweet, full of love, and down to earth. They are very good at what they do; and they probably would not check off all of the things that you would check off as what is important on a list of polisies. What these kind of folks do have is: a feeling that you can trust them even if you might disagree with them; and that feeling is right on the money. Kinda like the nation felt about Ronald Regan. She still has 60 days to show us that she isn't the type of person she seems to be, so, time will tell. Interesting times.
