I sure hope not, **Alice** – but this area has the most openly corrupt politicians of anywhere I’ve ever lived. I won’t be surprised to see him get another term.

Well said, **Alice**.

We are becoming a nation of motorists; too many people treat having access to a motor vehicle as an inalienable right. It is all too easy for repeat DWI (and other) offenders to have access to a motor vehicle; at least that guy won’t have one for a while.
