Steady hands on the wheel

Sat., Oct. 23, 2010

If our economy is bad, you might notice it is getting better and that’s because the GOP is no longer in the driver’s seat driving us into the ditch. As our president so aptly put it, his administration has got the car back on the road and driving in the right direction.

To help him keep it on the road, Patty Murray needs to be re-elected to the Senate and Daryl Romeyn needs to replace our present “say no to all stimulus legislation” representative. As you vote, remember who put us in this situation in the first place.
