Weickert is my state representative
Aug 19 2007, 10:19 PM EDT One Saturday afternoon not too long ago my doorbell rang, and who should be standing there but Steve Wieckert himself, apparently canvassing my neighborhood. (Now THAT was a Saturday afternoon buzz killer!) As I closed my door in his face, I wondered what possessed him to start canvassing in person. In all the years I lived here I had never once seen him before. During the last election, the Democratic candidate running against him, Penny Bernard Schraber, had made a pretty good showing, and it looks to me like she's gearing up for a second attempt at the seat. At the time I wondered if maybe he was thinking that his assembly seat maybe wasn't quite so safe anymore, but now I'm thinking that he's maybe aiming at a higher office. In any case, I'm also suddenly getting mailings from Wieckert, which is something I don't recall ever getting from him before. If either Green or Gard will be running against Kagen, it's hard to see just how well Wieckert could do against them, given that those two have a much higher profile in the congressional district. 1 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |
