Hopefully, posters will think before they write, but this is a way to get things off our chest and 'have our say', so to speak.<BR/><BR/>I've been following the District 1 race with interest. It may not appear heated to you, but if you asked one of the three candidates still in the race, I would imagine they might describe it differently. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps you don't live in District 1. In that case, it may not matter that much to you. I wish you would have posted your message during the 70+ onslaught of UGLY and HATEFUL posts that went on during the sheriff's race. Now, THERE are your troublemakers!<BR/><BR/>As far as all three candidates running a clean race, I have 100% certainty that Sammy and Mike S. will run with the integrity they always show in public. I have a different opinion on Lazarus due to some of the things he's already said while doing his door-to-door campaigning. <BR/><BR/>But, hey...It's just my opinion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32089423.post-61370856634413665732007-08-21T14:30:00.000-05:002007-08-21T14:30:00.000-05:00Whomever the anonymous Smith/Lazarus poster is her...Whomever the anonymous Smith/Lazarus poster is here should lay off it and quit trying to instigate something that doesn't exist. As Casey pointed out, there is no bad candidate in this race. This is not a heated race and these candidates will run clean races so why try to start something here under an anonymous cover.

A Yellow Dog Democrat, in fact. You will rarely, if ever, find me voting for a Republican. But, I do have to take a stance about ole Barbour. We don't agree on politics, but he is actually smart (street and book) as Hell. Read a little about what he has accomplished prior to becoming Governor of our state.

Sammy is an invaluable member of this board. I get so damn sick and tired of hearing people bash incumbents just for fact that they are incumbent. He has been re-elected as many times as he has simply because he gets the job done. I live in District 1, and have put in calls to him on two different occasions over the past year and he returned my calls within the day both times. And, believe me… I am no Big Shot around town—just a local yocal. PLUS, he took care of the problem I called about in a very reasonable period of time. There are certainly incumbents who may need to go, but Sammy sure as Hell ain't one of 'em! <BR/><BR/>P.S. Lazarus is a hot-headed fool. I wouldn’t trust him with my child’s piggy bank, much less anything else. Check further into his financial background. It shouldn’t be too hard to dig up the facts. He may be full of grand ideas, but then again… So is Kramer from Seinfeld.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32089423.post-24993625849345863912007-08-20T21:12:00.000-05:002007-08-20T21:12:00.000-05:00Come to thinkk of it, Haley barbour does look like...Come to thinkk of it, Haley barbour does look like he has Down syndrome.

We have a president who does not believe in global warming and I'm not even going to start with the stupid war, it's just too damn easy and it's off the subject. The country and Mississippi need a political shake up. I'm waiting for Mike Moore to run for governor. As far as Natchez--please get some of those candidates who have been in office too long and are too comfortable spending tax payers hard earned money, OUT! It's time for a change. Our votes do count here!

You can think of many other states that rank below Mississippi? In what category? Let's look at some of the things where we rank last: Per capita income, children's health, education, industry...etc. In other words, we rank last in the important things. Back to political candidates. We continue to re-elect the two most ineffective senators to represent us in Washington, Thad Cocheran and Trent Lott (Who can't tie his damn shoes and embarrasses the entire state everytime he makes a public statement.). Let's not forget Governor Haley Barbour, who doesn't have the sense god gave a cockroach. As long as we continue to chose such people to be our leaders, Mississippi will always be last.<BR/><BR/>What exactly do we lead in? Most rednecks per square mile? Maybe we lead the nation with the most people who believe the Earth is flat? Or maybe we are the grits capitol of America? I know! A recent study showed that Mississippi leads the nation in obesity!<BR/><BR/>The last time there was positive political and social change in Mississippi was during the Civil Rights era of the 1960s, and the Federal Government had to enforce that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32089423.post-28957776319700157922007-08-18T23:02:00.000-05:002007-08-18T23:02:00.000-05:00Hey if you don't like Mississippi then why are you...Hey if you don't like Mississippi then why are you here???
