Over the past few days, I have read with interest all the hype and hand-wringing over the U.S. Senate race. In all of this, I have failed to see the name of Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer mentioned.

We do not have to look to a humorist or to someone proven to back his party no matter what, in order to have a viable alternative candidate for the U.S. Senate. I urge you to go to Jack's website, jackforsenate.org, and see for yourself.

Jack is actually the best choice we have. Then let the media know that their ignorance is not bliss, in this case.
