So pat yourself on the back for screwing over the seniors, the vets, the mining co.'s, the students and everyone in between.

I was privileged enough to be in Abingdon tonight with Boucher, he's a class act and I'm honored to have worked for him. He had a smile talking to everyone, he did when I talked to him and he spoke very positive. He did not announce a retirement, so take that for what it's worth. With this massive amount of attack ads in this political climate, along with a lot of his supporters not taking this serious enough either. For two years at least, this area is devastated.


Many times in the past you and I have disagreed,but not on this. We won't even see this character you can believe that. I owe Mr. Boucher a debt of gratitude. Were it not for him,my family may not be fed,as it was he who really pushed the hardest to bring jobs to our area by building ROSP/WRSP-not to mention so many other jobs and technological advances that he is responsible for. BTW guys I am a registered Republican,so it has never been a vote for the party deal when it came to Boucher. Give this a year or so R13 and see if the folks who put this stranger in office are still smiling. Go ahead and bookmark this post/thread guys and see who is right a year from now
