Rick,

If I had my choice, Estella Norwood-Evans would have made the cut. I do
think the ebonics thing was overblown, from those who know Sanford, she is
really out to lunch. But, I can't vouch for her critics' sanity either.

If it weren't the governor asking to eliminate the regents, I'd be thinking
twice.

Bill
