Mr. Badger,

I believe you may have just sewn up an election with your comments. Bravo! from a very cynical, suspicious old man.

I just read the Martinsville Chamber of Commerce report on the candidate responses to questions. Mr. Badger did a good job of sticking to the questions and providiong short, specific answers. He looks like the best of the bunch, including the incumbents, who tended to over-verbalize and speak with politicoeze.
Is that a word? Anyway, I like Mr. Badger's matter of fact and down to earth responses.

And a big boo-hiss at those who elected (pun not intended) to pass on responding. They were:

Jim Barley
Thad Smith
Bob Strader
Gary Lester
Jeff Price
Phil Deckard Jr.

A special boo-hiss goes to the incumbents who didn't respond. No votes needed, but it would have been nice to see what they thought about the issues.

An extra special boo-hiss goes to Doug Arthur, who provided a nebulous single response that was to cover all the questions, then blew it up with, "To give exact answers to your questions; I feel they have to be studied in great detail by many talented people of this community." Sigh....politicoeze at its worst.

Some fresh faces with ideas is worth a try.

We need to put it behind us. Put the KKK stuff in the trash can where it belongs. If we forget about it we won’t be considered in that respect. But we can’t keep talking about it and expect everyone else to forget about it.


Well stated! If it is to end... STOP TALKING ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!! For the love of God, the virgin Mary and all the saints!!!!
