                             This may sound strange, but I've been having a great time since Day #1 of this campaign. 
 
And all I can say about the last few weeks is: Wow! 
 
I chose to take on the establishment. I chose to reject status quo, quid pro quo politics. I chose to run a campaign based on issues, rather than poll-tested talking points. 
 
But I never expected how many San Diegans, community leaders, and neighbors are ready to run with me.
