[ From: "Democrats Pick Sides in 2010 State Assembly Race - Supervisor Endorsements Ring in for Das Williams and Susan Jordan in Sure-to-Be Major Showdown," By Chris Meagher, SB INDEPENDENT, May 20, 2009 ]

Hey Das, so happy to hear your intention to run for Assembly! Hey, this comment is just about the graphics on your blog...how lame is that?? The background makes the posts very hard to read. Needs to be lighter or less of a texture. Not to be a bossy user interface designer or anything, but I had to really struggle to read this! But other than that, glad to find your blog, keep up the good work!!!
