Talk? recommendations? It is to laff. She will talk. She might listen. Then she will go back to Victoria, talk to whoever will listen, and whoever she talks to will say “Sorry. We don’t have any money to set aside for your “recommendations”. She might as well wait til after the election, or panhandle the Dippers for promises. If she has a clue, she can get those “promises” in writing. They might be worth the paper they are written on if someone wants proof that politicians “speak untruths”.
