Your column suggests that being a legislator requires the skills of a rocket scientist. It does not since the Legislature is philosophically led and dictated by party leaders. Having been very involved in the past Legislative process, I can assure the voters that Peggy Dwyer has the knowledge and skills equal to those of the incumbent, Gary Knight. Peggy Dwyer knows government processes inside and out since she has been one of LURC's chief staff persons for many years. Dwyer is a concerned citizen and probably one of the most personable people anyone could ever meet. Try running the Kennenbec River and the Grand Canyon rapids in a kayak with Peggy Dwyer and you'll get to know a leader that is fearless, brilliant and very capable of making the right decisions.report abuse
