They're Dropping Like Flies

Incumbent legislators, that is. At a rate of about 3 per week, they're deciding not to seek re-election. It appears that the flood gates have really opened wide since the election of Scott Brown in MA. 

So this whole blogging thing is new to me, I see that there are no "followers" -- whatever that means.  I know someone has read and commented.  It's probably my sister -- at least someone cares. Assuming there are others of you, it's time to spread the word some.

With the congressional exodus that seems o be occurring, imagine filling each of these vacancies with someone who will actually work for "we the people"?   Electing just one non-incumbent from each state, regardless of whether to the house or the senate could have a profound impact on how the government works. 

I know, this isn't some new revelation of an idea.  The thing that sets it apart is that it's not party driven.  Dems, GOP, Green, Independent, all irrelevant!  We simply need honest, and respectable; someone with eyes wide open who is motivated by conscience and consensus rather that the almighty dollar.

So if there are any experienced bloggers out there who are reading mine, and agree that we need to put the 'the people' back in Washington, please help spread the word, recommend other similar minded blogs that I might follow.  At the warp spreed of the 'information super-highway" (God, does that term make me sound like a techno-dinosaur!), we could have a nationwide network in just a few days.

Help give the hopeless some hope.....
