Vote Dad

There are tough choices on election day in the States. For example, should we vote for the father-of-one or the father-of-five, in-laws, who are contesting the Toledo (Ohio) Municipal Court Judge election?

But there are also some easy choices such as "whoever the opponent is." Which is who we'll pull the lever for in the case of the Anderson (Ind.) Fourth District Council Seat. Republican candidate Michelle Weatherspoon was arrested Saturday after pummeling police Sgt. Bill Casey, who is the father of her 1-year-old child. Apparently, a request for child support got somewhat out of hand. She is out of prison today allowing her to do the last minute campaigning.

Yes, politics matter. But being a father matters more. New York dyed-in-the-wool Republican Barry Goldberg explains why as he cheerleads for his daughter, Democrat Debra Marone, as she runs for town council.
