Commission's revolving doors could spin again

DateSunday, September 28, 2008 at 11:22PM

The ouster trial of Scott Moore and Paul Pinkston continues tomorrow. Could we have three vacant seats on County Commission in the near future? (One 8th District seat is already vacant.)

The turnover in commissioners the last 21 months may be a record of some kind - at least in percentages - for a legislative body anywhere. An ambitious young person could probably make some serious coin just selling programs at commission meetings so audience members could keep up with the changing faces. Better yet, each commissioner could be assigned a number to be stenciled on the front and back of their official, government-issued commission apparel.

Oh, wait, that was Herb Moncier's idea, wasn't it?
