Dudes — You Lost

Okay, so remember all that Rick Allen/Wright McLeod fighting that was going on during the primary? At times it had all the absurd single-mindedness of a school yard brawl.

It was vengeful. It was personal. It was out of control.

And it’s still going on.

That’s right, almost two months removed from the primary, they’re still at it.

The issue this time, flimsy as it is, happens to be that pink playhouse everyone’s been talking about. The one that was apparently — or allegedly — in violation of a homeowner’s association covenant.

McLeod was retained by the HOA, and of course that’s when the fun started. And certainly, somewhere among the actual legal issues, there’s a lot of fun to be had.

The Naval Academy, Tomcat flyin’, Congressional Candidate versus the little girl and her pink playhouse. You’ve got to admit that’s pretty awesome stuff.

But the glee with which Allen’s bunch has kept fueling this thing is just a little odd. Hired guns are supposed to move on to the next two-bit town. They’re soulless, right? They’re not supposed to care.

But obviously, they do care, which means McLeod hit a nerve somewhere. Hit it deep and hard.

You’d think there’d be some satisfaction in that, which makes you wonder why he’d send out statements bringing more attention to it?

“It’s time to stop this side-show?”

That truly goes with out saying. You Might Also Like:
