Bonini
Jul 21st, 2010 by David Anderson
Senator Colin Bonini made the ceremonial announcement in all three counties, yesterday. He proclaimed his message of fiscal responsibility and transparency to good sized crowds of supporters and the media. Senate colleagues such as Minority leader Simpson, and former Minority leader Copeland were there. State Auditor Tom Wagner was there. Candidates such as Dave Lawson and Michael Lindquist who had his own successful announcement for Recorder of Deeds that evening. He brought former primary rivals Glen Urquhart and Kevin Wade together in enthusiastic agreement. He has a way of uniting us.
Senator Bonini is a class act. He is consistent, conservative, and competent. He consistently told us the state budget was broken and that we were heading to an unsustainable level. He was often mocked as Senator No. Now others are joining him in voting against the budget and even the governor’s office gives lip service to his cause. The senator was standing for the right principles when it would have been easier to disappear and go along. He even was the subject of a protest (that is when you know you made it when people actually know your name enough to protest). He is now a political rock star. Why? Everyone now sees that he was prophetic.
That is the kind of leader we must elect. He has been the man who saw the danger and he has the wisdom to guide us through.
He’s got a got a real shot, obviously to win but also to do some real good in his position.
Very true
Bonini is the man!
