Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Nice!

I know I haven't been around lately--been crazy busy.

Fixing to get busier. SFIrish96 is running for Congress. :-)

We're left leaning Dems (no apologies for that, folks), but not super left Dems. Safe blue seat. The whole game for SFIrish is the primary next June (unless two Dems are the top two vote getters, but normally the one Republican sacrificial lamb gets all of their votes and advances to the general in November, then gets trounced). She's not the front runner, but we truly believe she has a shot.

Going to be crazy.

Best of luck to her, old friend. Hopefully she can get there and do some good.

And no apologies needed from you, just as I would not apologize for being center-right. I cannot call myself a 'Pub. I don't know what that is anymore.

Same goes for you, calling yourself a Dem. 

I think we all know where we stand by now. No sense bickering about it. And I hope this thread does not go there. When I saw the title, I said, "Well, shit."

Im kinda new to who you are

what location are you running in

and what is the office I assume Federal

good luck brother

so you are a Dem running for office in California

whats the problem

Just a suggestion the mid term might not be the best time 

might want to wait for 2024

I will add--one of the things that I know SFIrish is really good at is identifying a goal and working with people of all kinds to accomplish that goal. She's been amazing at that since we met when we were both young Army lieutenants. 

She's a left-leaning Dem, but more importantly, she believes in making government work for the people. That doesn't always mean more government, it means working with people of different stripes, with different opinions, to accomplish a goal that they can agree on. Sometimes that's done with a bare majority, but it's better when you can get more people to agree on something that's needed.

Anyway, I don't want this thread to go crazy, either, Badge, but I thought the OT title would stir some interest. :-)

Well I'm not running at all, the spouse is, but now is the time the sitting congressperson is retiring (let's be honest, probably at least in part because she doesn't want to go back to being in the minority). Whoever wins this seat will probably have it for 20 years.

Got it

good luck to her
