The only thing apparent is that you've got a grudge and are prone to name calling. My guess is that Doyle and Deeds will go back to their jobs. I can only speculate as to how you will occupy your time now. I assume it will include lots of sitting on your bottom in front of your computer. Steven Carnes

Glad to see my instincts were right. With such low turnout, anything can happen. We've seen a lot of reasons recently that conventions can turn into party-damaging circuses. But low turnout is among the strongest arguments against primaries. I was fairly confident that I would not have to deliver on my unilateral wager to Interested Party.

You must have had a bad experience with him and i am sorry for that, but i can only go by my experience, He responds to peoples needs and is a great guy. He has his limits like we all do but i find him to be a fair very even tempered guy. I really am sorry for you but the entire rank and file is very happy with Hill and the senior staff ........ Get well NP and i hope you can look into your self and see the truth.

I'm going to suggest that, given your multitude of anonymous (under a pseudonym) and potentially slanderous charges against a highly respected gentleman, it is incumbant upon you to either offer specifics (names, dates, specific incidents, etc.) or your real name so that you may be brought to task so that the truth can become known. I have nothing against people posting anonymously or pseudonymously on blogs UNLESS THEY MAKE CHARGES THAT ARE INDEED SANCTIONABLE!

No, my gripe with Hill is not personal; I just have a very good memory (and not of the things my deceased brother took with him to his grave) and know there are some very significant events of the past which have conveniently been omitted from Hill's bio.

Hey, I am ready to meet my Maker, so I have nothing to fear when it comes to telling the truth and someday, things are going to catch up with Hill and I hope I will still be here when it happens. Hill lives in fear that his past will haunt him as it surely will. StevenCarnes 6/13.."A campaign based on entirely on lies, denials, etc.....is no way to get elected". This is exactly the means by which Hill was elected. Don't you get it? JasonCW, since Hill and his thugs removed almost all of Messier's signs (as fast as they went up), there shouldn't be that many signs for him to remove.

It does seem odd to me that we elect sherrifs and that it is not an office acquired by promotion. Glen Hill, though he did win big, should heed your advice and realize that he may want to, next go around, surround his campaign with politico's. As long as he does not do this while sheriff (politicize the office), he will continue to be just fine. Greg - excellent observations.
