[StBernard] Thanks to Walter Boasso for running for Governor..a manwith Courage

[Westley Annis]

I agree Walter would make a great Lt. Governor.  That said I wouldn't be to
fast to say Bobby will be there for the next 8 years.  First, he may move on
to some national office.  Second, reform governors don't get re-elected in
LA.  If anybody can think of one that did please refresh my memory.  I think
Walter positioning himself for Mitch's job is a good idea, just stay light
on his feet in case opportunity knocks to jump back into the governor's
race.  
 
I would also like to thank Walter for running, it took a lot of stones to
jump in front of the train called Bobby that has been speeding down the
track for years now.  It would have been nice to see what happened in a one
on one run-off.  

 
Again Thanks Walter
 
Randy
