Mapchanger Help please! .. for the East coast challenged...
Edited on Tue Jun-27-06 10:24 PM by Melissa G
I admit it. I'm lazy and you guys are brilliant so help a gal out.. I went to vote for Barbara Ann, Chris and John and thought I'd toss the other Texans in too or just leave the spots unfilled..(we do that in Sunset Valley to add weight to the candidates we like for city council) on the west coast.

then I drew a total blank for what to do on the east coast..Who do you guys like? It's my anniversary so i am being lazy instaed of googling like mad to figure this out..Thanks in advance 'cuz I know you folks have the good scoop! Check ya in the am..off to keep celebrating...

1. James Webb, Eric Massa
were the only two I voted for (not that the others weren't worthy; I just didn't have the time to research them either).

2. Webb (not a great progressive but a very important race), Laesch (to beat
Hastert), Massa (great fighting dem), Skinner (great spokesperson for the environment), Whitehouse (important race and what a great name for a candidate with an unlimited future).

3. First congratulations on your anniversary MelissaG!
Second you better put John Courage in that #1 slot on the West coast. This is your district woman! He's really close to breaking into the top 5, we need more #1 votes please. Bell is going to make it easy, so kick your BAR vote up to #2 slot. You can even put Chris in your #5 slot and he's not going to move off the top 5.

My East Cost Choices
#1 MD-09 Nancy Skinner
#2 PA-06 Lois Murphy
#3 OH-03 Stephanie Studebaker
#4 PA-08 Patrick Murphy
#5 VA-James Webb

Delay flick that Smitty hosted..then went for a memorial volcano cake at Chili's in honor of the one we all shared in Ft Worth!:toast:
I was going to merge your list with Czolgosz..It looks like you have a strategy to your orders..

John was my number one pick for West coast..I was just in a hurry..
Are you leaving out Massa and Laesh because you think they are already in?

I'm thinking Skinner, Massa, Studebaker, Laesh and Webb mixing all three suggestions..pm me if you think i'm making a mistake.
Thanks,
melissa

11. For someone who started this thread because she was "too lazy" to research
the East Coast candidates, I think you put more thought and effort into your MapChanger ballot than anyone I know.
