Don't be offended if I don't reply. I'm not intentionally rude. Just very unorganized when it comes to email.

Ritz over Rude

The Shelby County Commissioner District 1 Position 1 race was one I was following pretty closely, even though I don't live in that district.

Early this year I saw a debate between Mike Ritz and Mike Rude. Rude, a political newcomer, was a project manager for FedEx and absolutely blew Ritz away in the debate.

In the end, however, I think Ritz was better financed and that made the difference. Rude made a point of not taking money that had even a hint of unethical behavior, depending heavily on individual donations.

I hope Mike Rude runs for something in the future.
