Pattern In Sheriff Candidates

I could be D.B. Cooper as well.

WaltonGOP you are really showing your age with the Deputy Dawg thing.

Did anyone ever figure out exactly who that individual was ?

Walton GOP were you Deputy Dawg ?

Age or just my knowledge with the long term happenings of SO? No, I was not, nor could I ever figure out who was. Heck I was so insignificant back then that I never was included on the direct mail list. Always use to read the reports from one of the other deputies. But with all of these drop in posters from places far off that have worked for Ralph, it got me thinking about the Dawg. Wonder what ever happened?

This is not an endorsement of a candidate. But I have received several PMs and seen several references to why Adkinson does not have to resign to run for Sheriff. I was looking this up for someone and thought I would post it here since it seems to be of interest.

I believe there were two meetings and that is what he implied (read the post carefully)

I know that Tom met with Ralph. I have heard that Tom met with Sunday seeking his support. This was after Sunday(former Capt. WCSO) received notice that the "Hatch Act" applied to him. He cannot run without resigning.

I find it 100% plausable that Tom met with Sunday. He would simply be seeking support from someone that does not like Ralph.

Wile, The problem with this type of propaganda is that you are in fact AIDING ralphie and his chances of re-election. This constant drumbeat that there are too many candidates only serves to give people the impression that ralph is is a viable candidate. He in fact IS NOT, the Daily News, Herald and tv stations have finished him. Just because hundreds of people do not come here and post how much they wish him gone does not change the fact that they do. I can find no one in SoWal who will say they are for him. I went to a function in Freeport alwhile ago and found the same attitude towards the cookin sheriff.
Another problem is the constant spreading of falsehoods against candidates. This bug has mostly effected Adkinson, Cooper and Cornman, who just happen to be the strongest candidates. This behavior also serves ralphie well and helps his campaign. Everyone would be better off to listen to the candidates, choose one and then tell the rest of us why we chose him. I have not picked one yet, but this type of innuendo and rumor spreading is not helping me sort them out.

Would you mind giving those of us who are either new to the political scene or out of the loop a rundown on what/who "deputy dawg" is and what they did in the past? Was this someone in the last election who spread the truth about ralphie? Please let the unenlightened among us see the light.

Well it really appears to be down to three or four truly viable candidates. You have an opinion that Ralph is toast. I do not share that opinion. Some would say that the more candidates the more true differences between the candidates would surface. I don't believe that. It is like shopping for wallpaper - that is something I will never do again. To many colors,patters and most of all to many choices for people to not just get confused and just pick on to get out of the store (LOL).

We share the same objective "A New Sheriff in Town". I just happen to think the old one is still breathing.

PS - I could never find anyone who admitted to voting for Jimmy Carter. People do strange things in a voting booth. Tell you one thing and do just the opposite.

Idlewild - A very important date is fast approaching. It is the quarterly finance reports deadline. After April 10th you will see who the acutal supporters of the candidates are, how serious the candidate is in his/her candidacy.

April 10 Q1 report due for candidates, political committees, committees of continuous existence, electioneering communication organizations, independent expenditure organizations, and State Executive Committees (Cover Period January 1, 2008 – March 31, 2008)

Today I felt a disturbance in the force - it more than likely means major changes in the candidates list.

It would not anger me in the least to be down to 3-4 candidates by this time next week. Ralphie will show no money if he follows his previous pattern, Adkinson will have several thousand and Cornman and Cooper will not have much as they have just entered the fray. If either of these have any serious money this early it could be a real show of strength. I doubt the other three have $1,000 between them and Macon and Wise have been at the process for some time. Hmmmmm. Another key figure would be how many ballot signatures each candidate has.

Tell us about the disturbance.....

Another interesting thought but I believe they turn them in when they have the required number. Maybe wrong - will check with the SOE office on Monday.

I hear voices on occassion. (LOL)

They have medicines and doctors for that problem, you can be saved!:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Those same voices told me Sconiers would withdraw and you know what - he did.

If you're so good, explain this "deputy dawg" stuff you guys were writing about earlier.

It appears that WaltonGOP drug 'ole Deputy Dog out of the closet to intimate that I am someone within the WCSO.

Years ago there was an "anonymous poster" that divulged information of unbelievable accuracy concerning the inner most working of the Sheriff at that time. He would appear and detail things (not very flattering) - then go silent for periods of time only to reappear through another revelation. WaltonGOP may have worked for the EOC at that time.

His identity has almost taken on the same folk lore as "Deep Throat" in the Nixon era.

How did ralph win re-election with someone on the inside "deep throating" him? If GOP rose from EOC to head of the party in that short period of time he surely must "know where the bodies are buried." I really need to get out more,

I never said it was during Ralph's term in office.

Ask WaltonGOP for more - he is the true "in the know" guy. Everyone kneels at his thrown.

He might have even been "Deputy Dawg"

As far as I know, Adkinson is the only one finished with his signatures. I think he turned in his last ones a week or so ago.

First, from what I can tell, getting to be head of the party is just a matter of showing up at the meetings more than anyone else and volunteering to work on events.

Years ago, back in the eighties, when QA was Sheriff, someone, who I have never figured out the identity of, would mail typewritten letters to the media and individuals throughout Walton County, detailing happenings within the SO and putting forth various conspiracy theories. This was before the internet. These things would hit and of course be copied and spread out throughout the county.

ShallowsFuzz, Cornman, Glidewell, they would all remember, but really do not believe anyone knew who it was.

There is a guy in Tallahassee that went under the name of The Grapefruit that use to do the same thing in state politics. Would always seem to know what happened, but never could provide the proof.

Wilecoyote's knowledge means either he/she has been here quite awhile, or has an excellent source that has been here quite awhile.

Your lack of history is why I also feel you are way off base if you think RJ is done. I am still trying to figure out these guys are going to differentiate themselves from each other.

I hear TC has already started putting up signs in the south end. Anyone seen them?

Just because I failed history does not mean I failed statistics and media, I made very respectable grades in those subjects.
Wile is obviously an insider as are you. When you both choose you can help us newbies "fill in the blanks."

What is the connection between "shallowsfuzz" Cornman and Glidewell? I thought Glidewell was in Cooper's camp. I am confused. Who is shallowsfuzz anyway.

As to signs I was wondering when the ugly abominations would begin to sprout. The counties to our east are already overrun with them. They must have 10 sheriffs candidates each and 15 tax collectors. We might get lucky and only have a couple of races to look at during our scenic drives.

I am babbling so I should retire to my drink for the evening. tata

All three worked for QA.

There are those that will be checking those finacial reports very closely. It seems that the Supervisor of Elections is just a depository. No checking other than did they file a report.

Mildred Wilkerson pre-filed last year. She should have had a financial report during the last reporting period. Someone told me she filed a "no-activity" report. One of the steps to pre-qualifying is to open a campaign account. Please do tell how does one open a campaign account with no activity. At a minimum the report should have shown a loan from her to establish the account. That would appear to be a "inaccurate filing".

I guess only the Suervisor of Elections can explain that one.


The "Coyote" is going to be on this years filings like white on rice.

Heads Up !

i have not seen any TC signs. Haven't been out and about much this weekend. I will cruise the area tomorrow looking to make sure that none are within the state right-of-way or county right-of-way. I try to sell them back to the candidates after I collect them.

I heard there was a 120 day window on campaign signs. Maybe only in Bay - there was a report on the news a few nights ago about the problem in Bay county.

Deputy Dawg. That does bring back memories. :funn:

Idle, you can PM me if you haven't figured out ShallowsFuzz yet, if you wish to know. No, he is not running. We / I haven't fully recovered from the last time he resigned. ;-)

I think the point GOP was making is that Fuzz, along with Glidewell & Cornman & several others worked for QMc way back when "Deputy Dawg" would show up in the paper. That was actually more scary then than it is now, as the WCSO had only what, 30 employees total?
