Yet somehow Stanley manages to not come off as a snob. I wonder why he can do it? Legislator implies passing legislation does it not. Sam has been a backseat driver at best, comic relief at worst. The media loved him because they like to quote both sides for a 'balanced story.' And saying he didn't lose is just spin. The incumbent always loses when they don't win. It is basically the definition of losing. The one thing I agree is Stanley worked harder during the election cycle than Sam. And I would expect the same will hold true during the next legislative session, when the senator from East Honolulu might actually get some legislation passed. I never shed a tear when someone has to lie in the bed that they have made for themselves.
