    I could not disagree with that. I hope you did not take my post as a denegrating comment. Obviously I would not have a problem with you wearing a kilt, I just know how we are percieved since it is not considered anything but eccentric in my parts and the comment you got about Nice Skirt in a negative tone might have been on others lips but not spoken. I only point out Elijah that your message must not be drowned out by your attire. But Rob is correct, you will be remembered as the "Kilted Canidate" and it can even "get" some votes for sure.

    What office were you running for?

    State Legislature. Let me say this, I had maybe a total of 3 negative reactions over the course of visiting 2200 and I can't count the number of positives I had.

    Two or 3 years ago, I might have asked you about the "skirt thing" because I wasn't into kilts until last year, but I would have listened to you if you explained about the kilt and voted on the issues I am interested in, not against you for any other reason.

    Elijah, it sounds like you did a pretty good job laying the groundwork for your next run, if you decide to. If so good luck.
