The last election incumbant Jim McNeil ran as well as Tony Stillman, a third individual entered the race late in the game, thiis guy was for all intents and purposes a spoiler. He got the old fart vote, the guys that did not like the incumbant but did not want a lot of change in our district as well. FWIW the third individual that ran is in Tony's home club as well. Politics!!!

The AMA is not perfect but it is our orginization. The $48 a year cost really is small for the actual benefits. If it costs an extra $6-8 a year well that's just life. FWIW most insurance policies since 9/11 have seen increases of anywhere from 10-35%.
