OH-07 | Sharen Neuhardt Cleans Up...Literally

So, I've been lurking around for a while, but I just can't stay quiet any longer. When Sharen was put on Red To Blue last week, it was the first time I got really excited about my home-town race. Our district's been red for so long...and to see the DCCC make the decision that it's really a winnable seat was really encouraging. But it still wasn't enough to get me into the race.

And then I saw this video on Sharen's website, and I couldn't hold myself back any longer. After the storms this weekend, Sharen put her campaign on hold and just went out and volunteered. Didn't make a big stink about it, just rolled up her sleeves and started helping.

I've seen too many politicians just talk the big talk about change, about leadership, about community. But Sharen means it -- she's really one of us. I could feel it in the power of this video. I can see her leadership by this one action. She doesn't ask us to join her campaign in the video, or to donate to her. She asks us to serve our community, to pick up a hammer ourselves. That's leadership by example. Real leadership. And I'm ready to fight for her.
