I'm out in Pierre at the State Capital building and I start thinking...wait, I wonder if Pat Powers is in at the SOS office? So, I stopped on down and had a good conversation with Pat about the state of politics, the dems and reps and how work was going.
The one thing about politics is that while it is easy to get nasty on-line and make comments about people, when we meet them face to face, its usually easy to find some common ground. I know Pat and I disagree on probably everything when it comes to politics, but I was glad I got the chance to meet him finally.
I would like to say that while being here, I am getting to see high schoolers debate various bills and resolutions that they wrote. It is safe to say that there is more intelligent debate going on today and tomorrow than during the entire session this past year. If you don't believe me, come down and find out!
