The final days

Overnight note from a usually reliable source says Bill Clinton will be in Arkansas to rally the Democratic troops this coming weekend.

Which, in a roundabout way reminds us: Whatever happened to Zell Miller?

Comments

Imagine if Arkansas Democrats had a candidate that could motivate people by themselves. One that the Dem-Gaz could never support....

Imagine if we (the voters) had an Independent candidate for Governor that could motivate people by himself.

Who is Zell Miller?

Bill needs to be here on election day to help monitor the polls. Maybe the 3rd world will pay us back by sending plane loads of folks to monitor our election this time. Lord knows it's going to be the crookedest in history.

Tell Me Mr. Charles, Where is the motivation arena? Do you need to see more commericals? Can't afford them.
Do you want fancy stickers and signs? Wouldn't buy 'em if I could afford 'em. This leads to the question: Do people in Arkansas really want change? Do you Mr. Charles Eddie Smith really want change? Do tell.

Do I want change?...Am I ready for change?..Dunno, you tell me. Tell me when we have a candidate who takes the job of Governor seriously, not someone who thinks it's a part-time honory position. When we have a candidate who will offer up new ideas for old problems that are WORKABLE and has the will and personality to engage the voting public in a dialogue of compromise that will at last finally solve the problems we face on a daily basis then, yes, i will be ready for change. Until that day comes I will have to say the Democratic Party's status-quo suit is a fairly good fit.

I say this with all respect for your candidacy, but it is tempered with 16 years of experience in state government.
