I am sure you heard about the boy who kills his parentsand then at the trial begs for mercy because he is an
orphan? A form of this story is happening to me.A campaign member of my opponent
(a lady from Osage) went to two local newspapers lastJune and requested the papers quit running my weeklycolumn, “Courthouse Happenings”. They said byrunning my column, the papers were providing me a
political advantage over my opponent.One newspaper said YES to this request, the other saidNO. Then my opponent began passing out her brochure
explaining she was running for office because I havenot been transparent enough. This is her one and only
listed reason for running!
