And it hits on one of the reasons I really like this crop of freshment. They mostly don't fit the mold of "typical" politicians, bringing many new ideas and backgrounds to the mix. I would also add that most of them, if not all, ran excellent campaigns, much better than the average grassroots Dem campaign and they mostly showed excellent organizational skills. They have also mostly kept communication open with their constituents better than usual, continuing to meet with their constituents often and listening to them.

A good bunch, I think.
