We are so close to the primary in the Sheriffs election. I have my choice as many of you on here may have read. I personally feel k that maybe those running should look at their numbers(money,votes etc) , sit back and think. Do I really stand a chance at winning this, or am I just going to sway the votes again and possibly put somone in who doesnt belong? There are alot of people in the County counting on a change. We may not all agree on who we want in the office, but we can all agree that not everyone is going to bring in the votes like the others. Just look at last years election. There are leaders in this race, and there are others that need to step aside, and back those leaders, so we can push forward this county into a positive direction. I wish you all nothing but the best. I wish that those running would just take a moment and think about their chances, those lives effected. Think about how the few votes you may get could sway that vote in August. Good luck to you all.

Tom Cooper is getting stronger all over the county. People like his ideas and positive campaign and are turned off by Adkinson's mudslinging and Johnson's constant fighting. Cornman is a good christian man but not living in the county hurts him. The rest don't even count.
"mudslinging?" ??

I continue to hear negatives about Mr. Adkinson that concern me including a little smoke I read this morning that concerns how ole RJ found out about the Hatch Act. Those types of things smack of good ole boy politics and I have no use for them. :angry:
I too keep hearing some of these negatives. I am assuming you are specifically referring to the idea some of put forth that a certain lawyer related to Mr. Adkinson tipped off Johnson. Or is it something even better?
Not a fan of good ole boy politics myself, so I understand the concern. While I personally don't give much credence to the rumor I mentioned, I agree it raises some questions.
Personally, I have only briefly spoken to Mr. Adkinson, but those friends of mine who have gotten to know him somewhat feel he is his own person. A man can't help who is family is, but he certainly has control over himself.

SmilingJoe,I don't know and am not concerned. He is running in a non-partisan race, and that seat doesn't determine whether or not a kid can say a prayer in school. As I mentioned in another thread, kids pray in school all the time.
Is Mark Davis a Republican?

the good old days
The campaigning isnt over. There are still rallies to be held and candidates to be heard.
Oh heck. Scratch that. I'm as nostalgic as can be. Lets bring back the good old days and believe what a candidate says and not verify a darn thing. Why would they lie anyway?

I can't think of a time in recorded history when there hasn't been political spin and manipulation. You just better be prepared to read through it.
