Today I have selected three women candidates who, if elected, would end the endless incumbency of the male of the species in three states: Idaho, Nebraska, and South Carolina. There are of course others who could do the same in other states, but I allow these three to symbolically represent all the others. As I come within days of completing my sincere but in the minds of some feeble attempt to make a difference in the body politic, I am reminded of a song that used to sustain me and my colleagues: “The seed I have scattered in springtime with weeping . . . .” and continues on in that vein until . . .”Another may shout when the harvesters reaping shall gather my grain . . .” You get the drift I think. As we are conscious of being a part of the sea changes we sense are happening, we know that we may not see the fruits of our actions, but that does not matter. What matters is that we “have eyes to see and ears to hear” what is really happening. So today I plant three seeds: Christina, Jessica and Mary!
