Dear Mrs. Stoutmiller,

I bought this postcard for you a month ago and forgot to send it. I'm sorry we let you down in Indiana, but we're on our way to Los Angeles. I can't wait!! It's going to be so much fun - and so much work. We're going to win CA for you and The Senator. Bobby won't stand a chance!

Keep us in your prayers,
Janine, Becca & Craig
