It would save time, effort and a whole lot of space to state what there is TO LIKE about the man.

I first met JM in Jan. 1979. He seemed to be very likable and to have a neat sense of humor. Since I do not like to go against my first impressions, I kept giving JM the benefit of any doubts. I still have scars of the knife-in-the-back that kept coming for the next 3 years.
Slow learner, but I did learn and I haven't forgotten.
Best of luck to those in D-5. But Red knows that JM has a deep hat just full of rabits, and he knows just when and how to pull 'em out. The D-5 gang should also play Load the Ballot. Load the ballot and if needed, start a mass write-in campaign for several others.
If one should get elected that actually does not wish to serve, then Bylaws Art. X, Section 2 provides the method to get a chosen one into office.
