Campaign

A lot of talk has been out about the Mayors problems with her son and how we should leave it as a private matter.

As a public figure you have to be ready for the heat. Whether it was the Mayors son or anyones kid, its a shame, but carrying a gun and possession of drugs and stolen property on a school grounds is serious. How the Mayor deals with it is her business, but it sorta goes against the famous Nancy Reagan phrase, Just say no.

While we are talking about mudslinging, I went back to the voters united website and re-read the chronological history for Flower Mound Politics in the last 15 year. It's a good read, sorta like a cheap novel or a TNT made for TV political drama. None of the intrigue of "The Good Wife" or "All the Presidents Men".

Check it out at www.voters-united.com and then go to about us and history. A familiar cast of characters and even the early days of Oil and Gas exploration, Outside developers interest in our little town and how far they go. It really does make the issue of this race the interests of the residents or the interests of big business in Oklahoma and other parts of the country. You decide.
