As far as McKay, I am not sure what I am going to do. Dyson is not an alternative in my mind not because he has a "D" but because he is on the wrong side of the issues. What I would like to do is to send a message to the GOP in SMC that they need to come up with some viable candidates instead of the good old boy "connected" people.

In the end local candidates are less identified by "party". Look at how often they swap parties just to get into races. I would have no quams about voting for a local Democrat IF they were reasonable and one the right side of issues that affect me locally.
I was just razzing you on the voting... After the speech you gave earlier, I'm leaving for the polls right now. I don't know what I'm going to do when I get there, but I know that even as a die-hard (R), Dyson has at least been somewhat respectable (good Lord...did I have to use "somewhat"?)

...and that counts for something in my book with the alternatives. Sure, they all have their skeletons...but I know what kind of soup sandwich we'll all be holding with the alternatives at this point.

I thought SMC was "vote early, vote often"... just 3?
