As stated, my mother has thrown her hat into the ring for CD16 against Used Car Mike.

Anyone in her district that wants to contact her through email and offer help, advice, or assistance to get the PA Democratic Party to endorse her (as well as help with petitions if PA does that for nominating), please PM me.

I'll give you her name and email address now.

We are in the early stages. My father, a brilliant financial and political mind, is going to serve as her campaign manager.

Trust me, speaking to her, you will do what most people speaking to her or my wife: fall in love with her.

I know it is extremely early but this is era of round the clock politicking and 24/7 campaigning.

Again, if AOC can do it at 28, my mother can at 71.

couldn't there be a better nickname? I know a guy who sells used cars, a former student, who goes to the ends of the earth to find the right car for a person and who is (and I know from experience) an honest individual. My concern is this smears people who aren't dealing in dangerous cars.

Kind of like the use of the term "Karen," like so many object to.

the term reminded me of when Auntie Maxine took Kelly down and ripped him a new one about the discriminatory "auto loan" issue that he attempted to deflect.

I've owned cars where I got recall notices, taken them to the dealership and not paid a penny for the work. The dealership.is reimbursed by the manufacturer. I think recalls can be completed in conjunction with state inspections, too.
