I received the following note from Dr. Neahring in response to reading the post:
“I see things differently. I did not run specifically to repeal and replace Walden. I ran because I thought I could make a difference in Congress, and I was no longer content with assuming others would fix the problems I saw with healthcare and the social network. It turns out that is not my path to having a chance for positive social change, so I am figuring out how to use the time and energy I spent the past few months to work to improve community health. Having had a unique opportunity for several months to speak with Democratic activists and community leaders, now I need to take what I have learned and see how I can make a difference. I will put my energy into developing my nonprofit project for seniors, and look for an opportunity to support pre-K children. It’s been a week - I’ll need more time to figure it out.”

At the two CD2 Candidate Forum that I moderated in Ashland and Medford back in January, all of the candidates agreed that they would support the ultimate winner of the Democratic Congressional Primary, including Jennifer Neahring.
ReplyDeleteI have now read Neahring's comment to this Blog Post, and missing from her comments is the simple sentence: "I support and endorse Jamie McLeod Skinner as our next Congressperson."
What's up Doc?
