Lewis, the Dems nominee who will be on the general election ballot. We can only hope that there will be some useful public discussions in which the voters can hear Janet Rowland's positions contrasted with those of her opponents on the issues that matter (see above). Should be interesting... Ms. Rowland has a couple of opponents, one petitioning onto the Republican primary ballot (Kearsley) and D.D.

My IQ is in excess of 14, which is twice the average IQ of the current political field, including the city as well as the county. Not me, I’m way over qualified.

If nominated, I will not run. I am woefully unqualified for such a position. I know nothing about backroom politics, spin, or how to suck up to the ridiculous idiots that pass for "power brokers" in this town. I'm thinking WLJ would be a great replacement for Craig Meis, though. They're virtually indistinguishable. Sorry. If nominated, I will not run. I am woefully unqualified for such a position.

It's not the dress that's empty. I'm looking forward to mr borgens and mr curmudgeons campaigns to take her seat on the County Commissioners. May the best qualified person win.

Human Services needs another study to tell them they're screwing up? Criminal Justice Services violates Civil Liberties (and yes, even scumbags have Civil Liberties) and it's "miscommunication" and "minor issues"? I don't mind a right-leaning newspaper, hell, this is a right-leaning town, gotta live with it...but, the head-in-the-sand stance the Sentinel has been taking lately towards our County Government is downright disappointing.
