    Laura, I don’t know if comments here would reach her. It’s always possible, but I’ve never seen her comment here that I can recall. Maybe someone else reading knows someone who can help you as well.

    I’ve know Ms. Lord for a great many years. She is one of the most dedicated attorneys I have ever met. She frequently extends herself over and above what you would expect from an attorney. Despite her own personal views, she is even-handed and does not use her position as an attorney to advance any beliefs she might have. Politics is quite different from legal representation. Ms. Lord is a brilliant woman who works long hours for those she represents.

    I think most of us make exceptions for larger party candidates who match our views. TPR however has a single minded mission, which involves endorsing every alt-candidate regardless of views and pissing on every larger party candidate, also regardless of views.

    I’m sad to see third party aficionados fall into the same trap that they complain about amongst voters–party loyalty and voting for parties over individuals.

    I think she gets the same pass that Ron Paul does, as a former LP candidate.

    Just for the record: Years ago I contact Nancy Lord Johnson about the vp position on my ticket. She replied several times & patiently heard me out, eventually declining. Haven’t heard from her since.

    She’s running as a Republican. TPR wants all Ds/Rs to fail.

  11. Trent Hill May 25, 2010

    Why would you want her to fail?
