Interesting little article in today’s Political Insider about the facts regarding Mike Wiggins and his mistreatment of his mother and sister.
Looks like to me that Wiggins is a pathological liar.
If someone told me it wasn't 'fashionable' to talk about freedom, I think I'd just have to look him square in the eye and say, 'Okay, YOU TELL ME what's `fashionable'.' But he won't. And you know why? Because you can't ask someone what's fashionable in a smart-alecky way like that. You have to be friendly and say, 'By the way, what's fashionable?'

I do not believe that a twenty year old family squabble should be part of a campaign. I think Hunstein was wrong to bring this out, and that it was out of bounds. We do not truely know what transpired 20 years ago, and quite frankly I don;t care, as it seems like it was a very tough time for the Wiggins family.

But, Josh, it doesn’t matter…legal proceedings are legal proceedings.
And, in the context of a race for the Supreme Court of Georgia, past court cases are as valid for him as they are for Hunstein.
Or, do you think he has immunity?

Bill,
Have you read this. Look this was a personal family matter. There were no crimes, the guy has passed a number of security clearances.
My issue is that she went after a very personal family dispute. I think she could have beat him on qualifications alone.
I will admit that I hold a judge to a different standard when it comes o a political campaign that anyone else running for office. Having said that I still would have been pissed if a candidate did this to another candidate.

>I do not believe that a twenty year old family squabble should be part of a campaign.
BS. I ABSOLUTELY want to know about the demeanor and disposition of a person running for the position of JUDGE. Someone who is incapable of negotiating with his own flesh & blood is hardly, IMO, a qualified candidate to handle Supreme Court decisions affecting other peoples’ lives.
The affidavit was signed in 1999 by his sister… hardly 20 years ago.
All is fair in love and war. Candidates’ past history is an open book when they run for PUBLIC office.
