1.  The Collin O’Mara Soon-To-Be Gubernatorial Candidacy.  He’s running.  I have no idea how he’ll do.  Don’t know for sure, but I believe he’s running in the BHL lane that I think is soon to be available.  You can’t run a campaign without money, without donors, without staff, and without volunteers.  Which is why I […]
