Madelaine,"Mad Maddy", Dean has a Republican opponent in the upcoming race for US House of Representatives, PA District 4, which covers MONTCO and part of Berks. Her name is Kathy Barnette and she has a fakebook page at Kathy Barnette for Congress PA 04. She is holding meet and greets around her area so if you'd like to meet the candidate follow her and attend one. She has one today at Cutillo's in Pottstown, which I will be attending. She's a black woman and not 'woe is me, I'm a black woman'. There was a large article on her in today's Mercury and her message sounds good (it's a hell of a lot better than Mad Maddy's). She is unopposed in the primary so she will be on the ballot in November.
