The State Republican Convention renewed my faith in our political process and in my fellow-citizens. Most delegates earnestly engaged in a search for the best candidates. U.N. bashing, guns-above-all, and the-Latinos-are-ruining-us attitudes did not prevail for the most part. Neither did the glitziest, most expensive campaigns, nor the never-fund-the schools candidates.

Hail to the Constitution and representative government.

Hail to the caucus system and to a group of delegates who still know how to make wise selections.

Hail also to the delegates who shouted down the effort to bypass primaries.

Edwin H. Beus
