   He doesn't have to be.  He's just a figurehead anyway.

   Rather, no one is willing to spend the money on an election they know that they   
   will lose.   
      
    AT> Same thing with NYC: Surely there are thousands of real patriots in NYC

    AT> kings) have chosen to stick with Sliwa.   
      
   Which is why I say that NYC is one party controlled now.  There's no way out at   
   this point short of a violent revolution.  And Trump will put that down no   
   matter who's side is "right".

   It's hard for people to step outside their comfort zone.  It sometimes takes a   
   lot of pressure for them.  They like to see the world as it was, not as it is   
   now.   
      
   I've lived all my life in Michigan.  Things are pretty good for me right now.    
   But if another Elitist becomes governor in the midterms, then I'll know that   
   Michigan is one party controlled and I'll be looking to move.  I don't want to   
   live in Michifornia.   
      
    AT> You already know this but let me re-enforce: Don't write to him/her,   
    AT> and don't email them or call them either. Talk to them face to face.   
      
   Yup.  He'll be doing some stumping soon because he's up for reelection next   
   year.  I'll be pulling his voting record and publically asking him why he's a   
   RINO.   
      
    AT> Do: visit their office, heckle them at public events, because putting

    AT> it's like to feel uncomfortable.
