I was set to go canvassing voters today (knocking on people's doors, for those of you not hip to the political lingo) but Scott Randolph wanted to know if I would like to go to a fundraiser at the Mills Market at Mills and Gore. I don't need to go on about everyone there, but I saw some old friends, some folks I met before and some people I need to see more often. After buying my city commissioner a glass of wine, we wound up the evening by traveling to this guy Russ' house, where we had an old fashioned sing-a-long. A couple Sagitarrians, a lovely couple, and the Randolphs rounded out our chorus, with Russ on guitar and the Nebbiolo. It was one of those nights you didn't want to end.

Anyway, the new Scott Randolph commercial debuts on YouTube tonight. Sheri McInvale has raised much more more than we have, and she received a huge amount of television airtime courtesy of the Republican party. Her total is closing in on a million dollars spent, all for a $30,000 a year part-time job. Once you examine her campaign donors, you understand why her seat is so important to retain. It seems like many people will stand to make a lot of bread if re-elected.

Of course, this is why we put together old fashioned door knocking with good research, public domain footage and music and mix it all together in iMovie in a day.
