I thought it was a car accident though, but then in an open golf cart that could be worse if the circumstances are wrong.

I'm glad she's ok. I thought I read yesterday that she was in a car accident. Either way I'm glad she's ok.

All politics aside, as the father of two girls (now in their mid 20's), a parent's worst nightmare is when one of their children gets badly hurt. When I first read this article and it mentioned life flight, it made my heart sink. I just put myself in Marco's place and it is a very scary thing indeed. I am just glad she's ok.

Now back to the politics of trying to finish what Obama and his administration have started.
