Well said Jay - and very important for those who still care about democracy, its challenges, and its strengths. Glad you are free now to talk out about issues you had to let pass when 'in power'

I certainly appreciate being able to speak now, but I also was able to speak truthfully and fully for the first part of my State House life, so I can wish that for public life again, this terribly dark period notwithstanding.

You did an excellent job when confronted with lose/lose choices.

It makes me sad to have politics reduced to lose-lose choices. It certainly felt like that in my last decade in the State House but it hadn't before that, so I know it doesn't have to be that way!
