Over the last week, I've been to several political meetings and met a few local candidates. Over and over, I kept hearing--
"My family has been in Walton County for six generations...."
"I was born and raised in Walton County...."
"I graduated from Walton High..."
"My family has been in this county for 100 years...."
I promise you, if I heard it once I heard it twenty times, usually as a qualification for office or to give their point of view more weight.
Has anyone else noticed this? What's it all about?
