The TIME Draweth Nigh
Jean Logan, who once helped Albert Gore Sr. run a political campaign, attended a "guaging the interest" meeting for my possible run for District 8 County Commission at Eidson's Family Restaurant last night on Ringgold Road. Jean is a gracious and gentlemanly fellow up in age. He has resisted involving himself in politics over the last ten years, but here he was, stepping up to say he cared about this race and wanted to support our movement. I was immensely touched.
Also in the audience was a young mother who is worried about her children's education. There was pain in her eyes as she spoke. Although I cannot say I deserved it, she begged me to "Please RUN." What could I say?
I mention these two people among the fifty who were there last night to tell you that the results are in and the running will soon be upon us. The time to declare draweth nigh. So let's all take a breath and move forward without fear. And we will keep you posted about the "when."
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in supporting me and my team. Email me at info@dailybailout.com.

Not that it's really worth much from way up here, but you have my support, and I'll at least spread the word among my friends back in Chatty! A better man for this seat there is not. Good luck, John!

You are kind. But really! Get down here and start going from door to door with me.
