Very good news , and while Jay is a democrat , he is a good guy ( have met him personally several times) . I must admit that I am a former Democrat , just more of a conservative democrat than most of the current crop ; now consider myself an independent . I have been a delegate for the republican party , but they too leave a lot to be desired ... No worries , I will be voting for mutt ; eeeeeeekkkkk (fingers on the chalk board ) .
