CNN Breaking News:

– Rep. Bill Janklow of South Dakota is convicted of manslaughter for a
collision that killed a motorcyclist, the Associated Press reports.
Watch CNN or log on to http://CNN.com (AOL Keyword: CNN) for the latest
news.

In my two years of receiving the breaking news email from CNN, this is the first time South Dakota has been mentioned. And such a great news piece it is. But does this mean we can vote for someone else? Oh, wait. I don’t live the state anymore. But if I did, I would be quite excited.

Disclaimer: I don’t mean to confer that I am excited that Janklow was convicted of manslaughter as I remember that a life was lost. However, I am excited that South Dakotans have a chance to vote in someone other than a right wing bulldozer.

    Yeah, oddly enough. But it’s maxed out at 9 people per square mile. :)

    HAHA! 9 might be overestimating a bit. ;) I’m glad Janklow was convicted. He was clearly in the wrong. But I feel bad that nobody stood up to him before and then somebody might not have had to die.

Dreams

To live in a bike friendlier world. To create the greatest collection of fabulous shoes ever assembled. To see a viable third party in US politics. To get local Rio team riders to acknowledge existence on road.
