Wow that’s the first thought that came to mind when I heard that Steve Minark resigned. My mind is now abuzz with a jumble of different thoughts about this long anticipated event – the send off of the local Republican Party’s # 1 pit bull (sorry to all you pit bulls out there). Yes he was as nasty as they come — but credit where credit is due he was pretty shrewd. So call me a cynic but I don’t see this as anything more than another calculated move in the chess game called politics. Jim Smith — Mike Barry – all due respect to former colleagues of sorts — are where they are because of Minark. And if either become the next Chair, they will be there because of Minark. I hope I am wrong. I hope they or whoever else takes over, recognize that sometimes there is a different way to look at things. And you don’t always have to trash a person or an idea to make your point. If they don’ t it will be more of the same only with a prettier face.
