More dumb mail

This just dropped into the inbox -- something Steve Wesley just sent to the California Leadership PAC (how I got on that list is a mystery) -- the part that poked me in the eye with a sharp stick was this:

What impressed me most about the Senator's victory last week was the historic numbers of young and independent voters who came out to vote for him.

Restated, the historic number of non-Dems (or not-yet-Dems, or nacent-Dems, or ...) who crashed the front-loaded early contests in this cycle.

Wesley ran against Angeledis in the last gubanatorial primary. I was running Chris Miller's campaign website at the time ... if I'd been in California in the last off-cycle I'd have held my nose for Phil -- there's no way I'd have voted for yet-another-silly-con-valley enterp-cum-pol -- I mean ... they're management!!!.

Yea but can they count on the young and independant voters to come out twice- once for the primary and again for when it really counts in the general election. They are asking alot from early enthusiasm in a long slog of a race. They need to ensure that their pacers are along for this race if they want to take it at the wire.
