Dear Readers,
The below opinion article has been sent to dozens of media outlets in Virginia.
Please let us know if you see it published in your local paper:
"Last Friday afternoon, December 23, 2011, Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry were
notified that they had not turned in enough valid signatures to qualify their
names for Virginia's Republican primary ballot. Predictably, this has caused
feathers to fly, complete with threats of lawsuits against Virginia petitioning
requirements.
Gentlemen, welcome to the world where adherents of the Libertarian Party, the
Greens, or the Constitution Party live where their exhausting effort and huge
expense meets bureaucracy, unending paperwork and needless legal hurdles --
before we are even allowed our place at the starting line."
Take a few minutes to check it out! The entire article is available on my blog:
