Running a sprint is one thing but this is the final 50 yards of a 440. You know, when you’ve given it all and the sounds end and all you hear is your breath and see the finish line. Pushing to the finish though your body is spent.

Now is not the time to give up. It is the time to double the effort after next Tuesday we will either relish in victory or start preparing for the inevitable collapse. I have said in the past I want to Honor senator Inouye but not by reelecting him. I want to retire him in honor and dignity.

It would be a sad thing to have the collapse of the dollar and the economy on his watch and he doesn’t have the stamina to work 20 a day to solve the problem. Or vote along the administration line which is more government and more debt. That would be a sad end to a great career of public service.

I have offered and still offer him a position as a mentor if so chooses. Our state can not afford the to be absent leadership during this time of trial. And we are playing with fire having two senior senators both 86 years of age.

If you don’t vote you will be voting in the past – the very things that have brought us to this point in time – This is your future – vote for it!
