It looks like Rick Santorum has won the largest part of the state's Republican delegates. Is this surprising? Yes, for some strange reason it is...just as it's surprising to us that Fay Parker currently has the lead over Keith Collier Jr. for Lauderdale County Commissioner. At least in the latter race there will be a runoff. Some races are always iffy, but why that particular one should be is beyond our ken.
Oddly enough, we've only recently discovered that some of our state's citizens refer to themselves as Alabamans. Weren't they taught in grammar school that it's Alabamian? If they weren't, we're sure we could dig up some former teachers who could elucidate them...or perhaps not. Sadly we might have to literally dig some of them up.
Now let's get prepared for the runoffs. Aren't they fun?

Several readers have asked the names of the owners of Metro Properties LLC of Colbert County and Game On LLC of Florence. Metro Properties is owned by Kenneth Crump, but we can find no Florence listing for Game On. Both entities lost heavily in the Christmas 2010 fire at Sidelines II in Muscle Shoals.

From D.K. on child rapist Jeffrey Noel Rickard:
The State of
Alabama Pardon and Parole Board turned down Jeffrey Rickard's Parole, 5 years for next Hearing. He has a total of 21
marks against him, with 5 of them within this Year, one for
contraband, and he has an Indictment for that in Elmore County when he
serves his time.

In a state that would elect someone like Roy Moore, why in the world would you be surprised that Rick Santorum not only won, but carried every single county in Northwest Alabama??? This is your own backyard! Santorum 2012!!
ReplyDeleteWe thought Moore had been thoroughly dispatched years ago, but like a fungus he has returned to put his copyright on whatever else may strike his fancy. We assume it rained in every county Moore and/or Santorum carried. We've heard the more rain the lower the IQ of the voters. If it should be a choice between Santorum and Obama? Nightmares are made of this.

ReplyDeleteI believe I first heard the rain/IQ connection from George DeBoer a UNA. It would be interesting to find out if any studies have been done to support it.
DeleteSadly, neither half of Lauderdale County turned out in droves to vote for THEIR commissioner. Then they complain about the commission not doing anything for the citizens.
