Perhaps she doesn’t appreciate the fact that she’s engaging in the very type of activity she supposedly condemns—campaigning. And at the same time she revealed how little she knows about basketball and her contempt for a whole lot of fellow Americans. |

A more complete story will be written in the coming days about the politics of the legislation that will determine whether our state Supreme Court Judges will have to run for their position in contested elections or continue to be appointed by the Governor and subject only to a yes-no retention referendum. But this morning, in an unprecedented move, Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey helped move out of the Senate Government Operations Committee a bill that would provide for the election of Supreme Court Judges by a process meeting the requirement of our state Constitution that these Judges be “elected by the qualified voters of the state.” |
