" Ha - Weller doesn't even live in that district. Can't let boundaries stand in the way of politics. "

" I thought Dan Brady lived in Tim Johnsons district anyway ? Am I wrong ? "

" An Army? You do not need an army. Just look at our local candidates for office and office holders. You need the support of about 10-20 key people. Then the sheep fall in line. Don't rock the boat. "

" That's a shame Dan is not going to run. I would have enjoyed not voting for him. "

" Hail Jason Wallace! Let's go Green. Where do I sign the ballot petition? Where can I volunteer. The 2 party system is broke. Go Green! Let's all get behind this brilliant candidacy. I see an opportunity for us "Greens" to make a difference. The 2 parties are just alike. Can't tell 'em apart! Go Green! Give yourself a real choice. Wallace campaign please publicize your volunteer/canvassing calls. Give me signs. Please Please Please.... "

" I have had the oppurtunity to work with Jason in a volunteer setting. He has given freely of his time and energy learning how he can better serve those in which he works. He is dedicated to the cause showing up every Saturday morning when many are sleeping in. But those most important factor is he is not jaded by the politics of it all, grass roots is not a bad thing. The political buisness seems to be the ruination of this country with evryone of them worried about what is in it for them instead of whats good for the country. Jason would be good! "

True Republican wrote on Oct 8, 2007 1:51 PM:

" Although I wish Rep. Dan Brady would have run for Weller's seat, it is obvious as to why he did not. Huge decisions in a short amount of time. Had Weller announced earlier that he was retiring, I am sure it would have given many other qualified candidates the opportunity to ponder the decision to run, organize and raise money. The voters in Dan's district sincerely appreciate all he did to research the possibility. One day, the right opportunity will surface and we will see Rep. Dan Brady run for a higher office. He is one we need to keep in politics. "

" The 11th is goin' blue, and, possibly, the 18th as well. " ______________________ Not if I have anything to say about it. Dan made a good smart political choice here. If the party wants to keep the seat they need to solidify quickly behind one candidate. "

" Lets see, Weller is backing Baldermann.....so no there. Murer is an ex Bush staffer.....so no there. Jason King is endorsed by neither the Republican Party members nor by Weller. Seems obvious. King IT IS! :-) "
