Your love of politics started early because of her. You'd walk along beside her as she put up campaign flyers. You felt proud (and maybe a little embarrassed) after she'd beaten Republican neighbors into submission with unfailing logic. You loved more than anything when she'd let you stay up late to watch the returns. It was something that you shared, just you and her. Now as you take a moment to watch her answer your daughter's questions about what mommy and daddy are doing, you grin. Politics is in the blood of the next generation of Lymans too, it seems.
