In just a few months Democrat candidates will be lining up to take a shot at our remaining Republican office holders after their recent success. Wayne Dunn will be looking for a viable partner to serve with him on the county commission which will be vacant do to the retirement of Commissioner Modesitt and embolden hopefuls will see the possibility of taking our State Senate seat to the Democrat side in 2010 especially if Senator Deem chooses not to run. The Democrats have tasted victory and folks who wouldn’t have considered running will now give it a second look.
