I will be there for Child Advocacy Day.

Like anyone really thinks they are advocating for kids in Missouri? LOL

My number one issue is health care. And I will be speaking out against the 65% plan. http://heartlanddemocratsblog.blogspot.com/2005/12/65-plan-undercuts-local-control.html

Anything else?

2. Don't yell. Carve 'em up.
You are passionate about your issues. It is not always the point to be made; it is the way that you make your point. You have your arguments down. You are on the side of the angels. You do not need advice about your knowledge, your passion, or the rightness of your cause. I will only give the advice that you should remember, that if you believe that these people will listen, then give them the opportunity to do so. Be the person who DRAWS those in. You will never help those you care about with anger. You will do so by your expectations of those before whom you speak. Best Wishes. This matters, and I envy you for being in the position to make a difference.

4. Wow what a nice thing to say
I am going to keep my cool. I am going with parents from school and some other people I can't afford to lose my temper in front of. There are also a couple good Dem reps I plan on stopping by to say hello to. They have my respect for fighting back as hard as they have on behalf of our kids.

I just hope I can convince at least a few of them to vote against the 65% plan.
