LET We're a little disappointed that so much space on these pages has been devoted to whether or not "re" should appear before "elect" on Carla Nelson's lawn signs.

If Tina Liebling's supporters think this issue is the best way to win votes then their candidate is in real trouble.

Most candidates ask their supporters to talk about positive things.

If Liebling's supporters have to resort to complaining about lawn signs then the well of positive ideas must have gone dry.

For that, they can only blame Tina Liebling, because she has been an ineffective legislator and unless you enjoyed the government shutdown.

There's not much about her last two years worth bragging about.
