I will stay on the sidelines for the primary debate. BUT, to all those whose perceived Craig's comments as Mike did, I can only tell you that I've known Craig for several years now, and he has proved to me, with no fanfare whatsoever, over and over, that he is a generous, kind, caring man.

Most miscommunication problems occur not because one fails say what they mean, but rather because it is said in a manner that can be interpreted more than one way. Perhaps that is what happened with Craig's statement. However, It does seem to me a hefty stretch to interpret "I gave over XXX dollars," as meaning "a $5 or $20 contribution....is somehow unworthy or invalid."

Regardless, though I don't pretend to be a "bosom buddy of Craig's, I know enough about him to be comfortable assuring you all that THAT was certainly NOT in his mind when he made his statement.
