Ray LaHood is change I believe in

The roads I travel on have an impact on my life every day.

Finally someone in Washington who recognizes that roads need to be for more than just cars.

:toast: :toast: :toast: for Ray LaHood.

Listen to him on Talk of the Nation Here:

1. and he`s a....REPUBLICAN !!!!!!!!

he`s really big on bicycling...he`s a real bike rider

2. Obviously he's from a somewhat benign strain of Republicanism

Listen to the show.

When someone asks him about something he's not knowledgeable about he admits it, instead of pretending otherwise.

I guess I should have made a more inflammatory headline.

Silly me thought that issues that truly impact people would be important.

3. Caterpillar-Peoria,Illinois

that`s his district. just up the road is John Deer. obama picked him because of these ties and the fact he is closer to being a democrat than a republican. he`s the right man for job.
