A Campaigning We Will Go!

I did it! Days after our first caucus in St. Charles County was hijacked and railroaded by our GOP Central Committee, I filed to run for Committee Woman in my township of Cottleville, MO.  The current central committee has a very tight grip on local and state Republican politics and I don’t like very much of what I’ve learned.  It seems they have their fingers in pretty much every pot imaginable; from conducting Young Republican meetings to running for State offices.  It’s quite a tangled web they’ve weaved…at least that is my perception.

Do you know what I’m doing a lot of these days?  I’ve been working in my gardens.  If you know me, you know I HAVE to plant things.  It’s quite a spring-time obsession for me.  The soil beckons me to dig, sow and grow.  However before I can plant anything, I MUST remove all of the weeds and turn over the soil.  It’s a rather boring, mundane step but it is VITAL if my new plants are going to survive.  If I skip this step, my plants won’t find the nourishment they need from the soil and the weeds will choke out new growth.

I find this to be a perfect analogy for why I’m running for Committee Woman.  The status quo isn’t working.  The weeds have taken over and the soil has sat fallow for too long.  It’s time to turn it over and allow for the growth of new ideas, enthusiasm and a burst of liberty!
