Holy crap.

The sky hit my eyes like a power chord from Beethovenâ€™s 9th Symphony.

I would have voted for you for that alone.

Best of luck to you, Pete. Here’s hoping there is an outbreak of mass sanity tomorrow.

I’m leaving work early today so that I can go vote early for you. You have catalyzed the democratic movement in Utah. I wish you the best of luck, thank you so much for your hard work.

You have just explained what it’s all about Pete.

I remember your first apperance at the Weber County Convention. I also remember that drive down to St. George with Xavier. Once we arrived Colt became our guide.

Where did those people go? It many ways it seems so far away, and yet in reality it was just yesterday.

Thank you for being our honorable candidate for the United States Senate. Thank you for taking the quest that no one else would dare. But most important thank you for seeing the beauty of the common Utahn. He is important, she is important, and it is these middle class heroes that have made our Country and State great.

Thanks Pete.

Las Vegas’ thirst for water is going to slowly creep far beyond Callao (btw, my father in law is the Callao high council rep for the Delta LDS Stake and speaks very, very fondly of it). Soon, Las Vegas will seek to start sucking water from other places in Utah. Their thirst is unquenchable. I know that the folks in Snake Valley and the region are few in number, but they are just the first to fall prey to LV. Many ranchers in Nevada have already lost everything to LV’s water needs, in ways that are nothing short of criminal.

Las Vegas’ water needs are not Utah’s problem. We shouldn’t be the solution.

We know you won’t forget, Pete. I’m sure you don’t want to do it beforehand, because you’re too modest, but please try and find time to work on your victory speech. Yours is going to be the upset-special of the night of November 7, and every network is going to lead with your story. Also, please remember to wear the nice grey suit with the maroon tie.

BTW while standing in line for half an hour to vote last Friday at the Murray city building, all I heard was your name. You’re a cinch.
