Why do we bother having primaries or general elections? Just ask Lee Bandy for his Karnac the Magnificent-like predictions, and coronate his winner. His State article on the 5th District GOP Primary was 99% non-partisan , then he has to go dookie on it by giving his November prediction - Spratt in a trot. Sure Lee, maybe if you say it enough we'll all stay home. This is the same paper that in 2004, mentioned me as a candidate fighting "to get creamed by Jim Clyburn" ( Thanks Brad!). If all of life were measured in absolute wins and losses, no one would run for office. But guess what? We don't all measure life by that magic 50.1%. Some of us care more about how our party is viewed by African-Americans, or by running candidates who actually try. Lee and Brad Warthen have more in common with me than they would like to admit. They are a minority in their own backyard, where the best support they get is "Good Luck". The only difference is I let the battle go forth and let it take it's course, rather than try and use my position as a bully pulpit. Now why didn't the Mike Reino/Gary McLeod race get an article? 50.1% |
