Candy Bars for Candy Barr Heimbach


"You gave me this name, so I put it to work for something."

That's what judicial candidate Candy Barr Heimbach reportedly told her father, Al, when she came up with the idea of distributing candy bars as a campaign gimmick. One of her supporters, who ate the candy, saved the wrapper for me. Thanks. The back contains these ingredients: "Honesty, Integrity, Fairness, Experience"

  1. "Honesty, Integrity, Fairness, Experience". These are qualities that are absent from your agenda Bonie.

  2. I don't know anything about this woman or her credentials but I must say that the tactic she used reminds me of high school student council antics. Sure its cute and all but its strange. Whatever works will work I suppose.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
