How about a ***THANK YOU*** Thread for Carl Sheeler

[UrbScotty]

Well, it's pretty obvious that Carl Sheeler didn't even come close to winning.

But as a fellow DUer, I would like to take this opportunity to thank him for caring enough about his country to run. So Carl, while you didn't win, it is my wish that your campaign will still have an impact on our nation and our world.

If I were in Rhode Island, I would've voted for you.

brilliant.

I am sorry that his many assets were not recognized by many of the voters in his district. I wish him well, and I hope that he decides to continue with a political career.

25. I am an RIer and I thank you

Thanks for moving the debate forward in RI an I hope you try again for another office soon.


May I suggest you consider a run against Langevin?

[bdamomma]

27. hey, that would be a good idea, I wish Lawless beat Langevin.

[grizmaster]

29. Lawless- good candidate, slow starting campaign

I liked Lawless too. Too bad her campaign took so long to build up steam. It was just the last two weeks of the campaign that she really began making a dent.

I wouldn't mind seeing either Lawless or Sheeler taking Langevin's seat.

[bdamomma]

26. Thank you Carl

thanks for all those billboards and your views. I did vote for you.

[Chico Man]

28. I voted for Carl

Never give up!

[Joey Liberal]

30. Thank you Carl! That billboard was priceless!

I hope that you run for office again. Maybe for a state office or the House of Reps. Please hire a better staff next time. I e-mailed them and they never replied.
