I'm glad we have talented fellows like you working to advance the objectives of organizations like LSRJ and women everywhere who value their rights. Let's all hope that in 12 days the American people will stand up for their mothers, daughters, sisters, wives and others and not let individuals like John McCain and Sarah Palin dictate what is in their best interests. Amanda,
