If you get a reply, let me know.



I have gotten one reply from her over the years. And that was when I questioned why she never replies.

I've not gotten a single response from her in four years.

I've attended her town hall, and can't get her to acknowledge my existence there either.

If you don't wear a great big "D" on your coat, you don't exist as far as she's concerned. At her last town hall, in fact, she stated that "we can't let happen in Fairfax County what happened in Alexandria" (i.e. their Democratic puppy nearly got beat). And that was supposed to be a meeting for ALL constituents. In fairness, though, Kris Amundson puts on that townhall, and invites Puller out of a sense of rank. Puller seldom even speaks; she's a figurehead.

Unfortunately, the other guys don't run against her.

Unfortunately, I think we are past the ability in Fairfax to unseat a democrat whether they're an outright socialist who would willingly surrender to Bin Laden, or a strongly pro-gun 'blue dog' democrat, the democratic constituency don't care.

What really irks me is that there ARE enough of us to raise enough of a ruckus to get it to work, I actually stumbled upon another VCDL member when I went to Vote Tuesday in Mount Vernon. He was talking to the Herrity supporters andprouldy proclaimed - "VCDL endorsedPat, so that's who I'm voting for".

The district I vote in still leans republican, but it's the densely populated housing areas where democratic leaning folks congregate that we don't have. By and large, the democratic constituency leans towards folkswho like the convenience offered by living close to urban areas.They lobby for more government services that result in higher taxes for the "rest of" wherever.

There's a lot of complex "issue voters" in 36th Senate / 44th House. Particularly the elderly lobby.

We should all LTE these clowns in the Mount Vernon Gazette. If they get 40 letters indicating that Puller is notresponding, they'll print it...Amundson too.

My father has run against her more than once. Unfortunately it is a heavy democrat district so he had a snowballs chance.

Sounds like Janet Howell in District 32. I've written to her repeatedly with facts, examples and anecdotes. I've gotten zip, zero, nada.

It's the reason I always open carry in Reston no matter how cold or inconvenient.

:cool:

I sent a similar email to Sen. Tommy Norment, commenting upon his voting record this session turning his back on our 2nd Amendment rights. Concerns me that "moderate" Pubbies tend to turn into the must turn coat Anti's.....smile in our face, and stab us in the back. Don't worry Senator, I'll remember your votes come the next campaign.

Let him run again, I'll help! Don't have money, but I can call and stuff envelopes
