Shirley,

If nothing else, the pre-election process in Latah County has certainly changed 
some widely-held, kindly views of the characters and courage of the Schroeders 
and Tom Trail.

  Visionaries:

  A candidate needs thick skin, so forgive me if I betray a lack of it.  Barrett 
Schroeder sent a letter to the Daily News that contained fabrications.  I will 
deal with two of them:

  First - I did not miss the vote for the University of Idaho appropriations 
when I missed four days in the waning days of the 2003 session.  Further, I knew 
of issues on the agenda and they were well covered.

  Second - (I suppose professional attacks are always troublesome) Barrett 
states that, when teaching math at Moscow High School, I failed students who 
were absent a certain number of days "No questions asked."  I certainly had no 
such policy.  Moscow High School did have a policy at that time denying credit 
to students after something like two weeks of unexcused absences.  Even then, 
there was a hearing to give the student and parents the opportunity to justify 
them.
