I've seen a few comments thrown out that Earl Blumenauer may be a possibility for US transportation secretary.

I was exceedingly happy just now when I looked at the Pennsylvania results and saw that Phil English had lost. I'm definitely going to write about that race. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Seems like a better Republican stratagy would be to accept the big oil money, but not make it so obvious. Glad to see that Kathy Dahlkemper won. I guess that bikiing and walking aint so wacky after all.

I would love to see more emphasis on bike friendly infrastructure. Can you imagine how much healthier a nation we would be if more people could use bikes more often.
Remember I'm in small town GA.
I talked to a black highschool girl yerterday. Told her I was happy about the election. She is also happy. She told me at her school, Cartersville High, they are not allowed to talk about the election. If they do, they get a diciplinary write up.
What's up with that!!!!
I suggested she call the ACLU.
My wife works with a guy who thinks OB will turn us into white slaves to get even for slavery. :twitchy: And, of course, OB is a terrorist too.

The overwhelming majority of us are already white slaves, we just don't realize it.
I'm going to guess that she goes to a school with a high minority percentage. I did as well, and the administration was always paranoid about anything that would create racial tension. Of course, there's also the issue. that 90% of the teachers probably can't hold an intelligent and unbiased discussion on the matter.
