Too often it is one party power and sticks it to the other party. And then secondly i know you mentioned geographic concerns. We try to putt some other limitations on the map drawing process by requiring districts to be drawn more according to county lines or natural geographic features rather than just these crazy districts that squiggle around. Thats not you know not easy to do but one thing it does is makes it possible impossible for people to be too key yative.

Gun runner went totally against the grain with pressure almost at every single stride that he took going down the backside and the far turn. Bafferts instructions to collecteds jockey was go after him. And that he did. Yet gun runner was up to the task. And kudos to you. You were completely right at arrogate. You said that he just wasnt himself and he was unlikely to be himself today. You know, i love arrogate for what he gave us. Hes a champion.
