King Jamey I ??? |
So far there have been a couple of arrests made and changes that are a great start at at least minimizing what was a huge problem at the jail. Something the previous sheriff apparently didn't even attempt to correct...He may have been to busy passing out Clark Co. sheriff's gear to "ladies of the evening" or eating breakfast with NHBSM (Not Honest But Stupid Mike) who knows...but anyway here's the "TOP 10 list of why Noel might not step down.
10. He heard Tom Galligan was switching parties and wants to be GOP chair. Galligan has taken Dem.'s to the dumpster so in the party's best interest Noel will stay on.
9. His wife won't let him
8. King Jamey I has a nice ring to it..
7. He's looked around at other possible GOP candidates and just shook his head Ed Z. , Matt Owen, Connie Sellers * note Sellers and Ed Z. are RINO's (Republican in name only).
6. Stepping down ... "It doesn't pass the smell test"
5, His sister won't let him.
4. He heard that NHBSM (Not Honest But Stupid Mike) was looking for a new breakfast partner since his current partner ex- sheriff Rodden may be gone for the next 1-3 years.
3. He actually thinks the party or any of the other GOP candidates can't win a race without him as chairman.
2, Mike Pence won't let him...
1. His lap dog Matt Owen isn't ready to take over the reins, sometimes Owen tries to think on his own..
Definitely numbers 1 and 3
ReplyDeleteI have no idea when Jamey plans to step down as chairman, but I hope he waits until after the 2015 elections. No reason to shake things up in an election year. There are no elections in 2016 which, in my opinion, makes for the perfect time for a transition.
ReplyDeleteNo.8 Hail to the king, long live the king!
ReplyDeleteThanks Brian for checking out the "award winning" BatBlog. Congratulations on your work with the Clark Co. Council and your re-election.
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be one of the "good guys" on our local political scene open, transparent and willing to answer questions a true public servant.
Keep up the good work as the BatBlog will be watching and "staying vigilant"
Noel's track record is pretty good so I would think most party members would be ok with him staying on as chairman.
ReplyDeleteAgreed Anon. Noel has done a good job as GOP chair and is off to a good start as sheriff.
ReplyDeleteMy only contention would be that the sheriff's position needs full time attention and dedication.
"There are no elections in 2016"..,,,?
ReplyDeletePresident, congress, state offices, general assembly, a Circuit Judge, two commissioners, three at-large council seats, coroner, etc. , etc.
You are thinking of 2017.
I've heard he can't find anyone who wants to take his place. A few have been asked, but no one wants the reins. He could simply leave it to the precinct committeemen as the democrats did, but that's not Noel's style.
ReplyDeleteYep, I was thinking of 2017. Sorry. I would life to see transition in an off year.
ReplyDeleteQuestion for HT. If you are really a democrat, why do you care if they are RINOs or actually Republicans?
ReplyDeleteWho is Steve Pence?
ReplyDeleteI'll do it!
ReplyDeleteCall me. When do I start?
Answer to Wesley....because they are both phonies...
ReplyDeleteSorry about that...that's Mike Pence
ReplyDeleteMy issue with whether or not he stays on as Chairman is that I remember him saying that he would step down when he was elected. Lying is not a trait I would want in my local Sheriff.
