Have any of you guys on the editorial board actually met "Pete"? Further, had the person who has been using it as a pseudonym been replaced by another writer or did "Pete" suddenly start writing in a completely different style and on completely different subject than normal on a whim?

We will never has the mass support we need until we get that fundamental point right--we need to consistently put forth great candidates. Austin Scott seems to be the right person this time. No one thought Purdue had a chance, then he won. Who would have EVER thought Ted Kennedy would be replace by a Republican? We have had scandal in our party this past year, we have to rise above it and put the best person forward.

He's been fighting this corruption for a long time. The hosptial industry has more lobbyists than all other industries combined. That's why you didn't hear more about it. The other Republicans must have been too worried about re-election. Scott was trying to do what was right. In the debate, Austin Scott said he is the only candidate who TAKES NO LOBBYIST MONEY. He said he's sending any contributions back. Good for him. I just hope he has enough campaign money to stay in the race. I have followed Austin Scott for years.

You think you know how morally repulsive he is. I assure you that you don't have a clue. Basically, if you dumped the contents of a dozen septic tanks in an empty swimming pool and rolled around in it for a couple of hours, you'd still be fifty times cleaner and more fit to sit at the AG's desk than Ken Hodges. The man is filth and degradation personified. How he has made it this far, considering how vile he is---even taking into account inherited wealth---is amazing.
