Good points CNR, I believe anyone who knew Mr. Pittman was not shocked by the outcome. He simply worked harder than Mckinney. Despite some of the political tripe floating around, he had a crack Campaign staff and excellent supporters. And in response to Trip being virtually unknown 6 months ago…. politically perhaps, but I assure you that someone of his intellect and character is not unknown in the community, which is why Montgomery interests really should stay out of local elections. They truly did not see the threat that Trip posed…. I bet they do now, and are working to hedge there bets anyway they can.

Correction #10: its a “Miss”, not a “Mr.” and she (Claire) is quite the bitter person.

Amazing how people like Mr. Clinton/Reagan will anonymously post something like that on a
blog, but what do you want to bet he doesn’t say that to Azbell or Swatek directly. This blog has
turned from being something of an interesting place to read to a place for sniping and derogatory
comments.

OOps – “agaope” should have been “agape”

BCA is a truly toothless political organization, and Dax Swatek and david Azbell are ludicrous jokes as political “consultants.” Dax – with mouth permanently agaope – is a human fly cather, and fat, walrus-like Azbell was once fired from a “Krystal” for incompetence . . . ,.

Great pair says the Bear . . . .

Trip really ran an excellent campaign. It is great to know that someone virtually unknown in the political world just 6 months ago can be on the verge of being one of 35 state senators in Alabama. I know they are fuming in the halls of the Governor’s office, Alfa, and BCA. They thought their endorsements and money could buy this election from the people of Baldwin, but the citizens said otherwise.

Who is Dax Swatek?

This is a huge loss for Bob Riley, Dax Swatek and the Business Counsel of Alabama, in that order. Why any of them went out on a limb to endorse in a primary defies logic.

Looks like McKinney’s smear campaign backfired. It might even be a bigger loss for Gov. Riley who
endorsed McKinney against another Republican. More people voted in the runoff than the primary, which
makes me wonder if Democrats in the district turned out to vote for Pittman since he wasn’t the
establishments pick and was endorsed according to McKinney by a Democratic Environmental Organization.

Trip by far ran the best campaign. And if you look back to my post yesterday, I predicted a 55-45 victory.

Whoops…just a little off.
