Everyone should run for office at least one time in their life.  It will help create an understanding not only of your neighbors but the system you live in.  I believe you can not truly understand the republic until you run for office.

This has been an absolute blast.  Project management at its best will never compare to running a campaign. 

 Running campaigns prepares you for the office that you seek.  Money management, personnel assignments, crisis management, strategy, counter intelligence, public speaking, interviewing – a myriad of things that a candidate must experience to get the full feeling of what lies ahead. 

 I thank each and every one of you for your support, contributions, time and efforts, and I hope you had just as much fun in this endeavor as I have had.  Never ever give up.  Stand strong in your cause, strand strong in what you believe is right.  You will be standing up for all these who cannot stand up for themselves.

Godspeed.
