Hold on to your Stetsons and baseball caps, Grand Junction. If you think you were tired of campaign ads in the last election cycle, you "ain't seen nothin' yet." The little guy won't stand a chance of standing up to corporate interests. A few days ago I pointed out that when one party owns all the checks and balances in a political district, corruption and cronyism creeps into the system. In an economy that is not well diversified, one or two industries will be able to tell voters who to vote for, without any regard for what is best for the people of the district. The only concern will be what is good for the industry. Gas flavored water? Get used to the new exotic taste!
Speaking of taste, please join me tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. at La Bamba Mexican Restaurant at 546 Main Street in Grand Junction. The restaurant will be open for business as I announce my candidacy to become the Representative for House District 54.
