Each candidate should lead-off their comments by stating what they have done to help Bill Fleming win this special election that will be held on January 12th.

Mr. Ballance,
I actually just spent the last couple of hours making calls to voters in my area asking for their support of Bill Fleming. I’m also serving as a volunteer webmaster for Fleming’s campaign, and have spent many hours working with core members of his campaign working to make sure Bill’s value as a candidate, and hopefully as a State Senator, comes through clearly.
I didn’t mention any of my campaign experience in my introduction, other than with the Obama campaign, but I have worked toward the success of primary candidates, party nominees, and incumbents running for reelection. I’ve knocked doors, made phone calls, passed out literature, blogged, and worked the polls. I’ve been there for them, just as I’m there for Bill Fleming now.

I’m gonna say it… the fact neither Sylvia nor Susan provided any profile or info about themselves has me less excited about eithers’ potential leadership.
