as Socialists. Then they they will get elected.
it doesn't matter what the policies are,
It is all in the name.
Hawaiians don't elect Republicans.
But they will happily elect people that lie to them,
repeatedly, and tax them incessantly for choo's
choo's.

She did a great job as Maui mayor, and the Dems had a problem deciding who they were going to support.

Mazie was LT Gov, but Mayor Harris got the party's support. Then when Harris dropped out, the party kinda supported Mazie.

Dem voters saw no real choice from their party. Plus, Bush was President, and having a Republican Governor had advantages.

Gotta love the answers to question number 5. They all said basically nothing.

Trump would have paid for them, built them, and then leased the homes back to the state.

By the time the state (and unions) figured out what happened, there would be 1,000 people off the streets living in "transitional" housing.
