I hear the echoes of Sting in my head - I lost my faith in the voters and they actually were listening. They were not fooled by the slick attempts to buy the election by faux cop Jerry Airola, who epitomized what Sting said about politicians all seeming like game show hosts. In fact, Airola had his own faux talk show as one of his many gimmicks. And voters did not fall for Barbara Lee Woollen's attempt to buy the lieutenant governor's race with her cynical illegal immigration ploys. Voters knew that she was just a clever actress, just like one in a movie she rents equipment to. Sting was right indeed. And I will never lose my faith in you again. Until the next election, at least.
