any opinions?
Anyone would be better than Blum.
All of the candidates seem decent. Any major pros or cons of any of them? I'm trying my level best to make a decision and still am at "coin flip" stage.

I'll check her out a little more closely.

Bettie
(17,125 posts)I like her record and again, any of them would be acceptable in the general.

(17,125 posts)so, that's the one I've been paying attention to, but not enough and we were gone all last week (with no internet), so I've got to decide soon!
On the other hand, a week without having a clue what's going on is kind of nice. Much less stress, even on vacation with three boys.
