In This Months Business Monthly
I’d be lying if I said I wasn't flattered when someone
suggests I should run for elected office. I take it as a compliment but that’s
about as far as I take it. Though I find the prospect of governing intriguing,
the thought of running a campaign and being a public “servant” is far less
appealing.
I’m think I’d prefer to be anointed or to slide into office
sideways sort of like Laura Neuman did in Anne Arundel
County . She only needed
four votes to become county exec and now that she’s in she’s not beholden to
anyone. Perfect.
That’s not likely to happen in HoCo. I just can’t see our
elected officials behaving as badly as John Leopold. We tend vet our bad apples
on the school board first, giving them the boot when they act like jerks.
