Blount County mayor goes off the rails again

Calls Blount Democrats "far-left loons" and refers to three county commissioners as "monkeys." Sen. Lamar Alexander was in attendance and apparently concurs because there is no report that he objected. Read all about it at BlountViews.
"I think you can judge the man that (Duggan's) running against by his handlers, and his handlers are those three darned commissioners that I've been talking about," Cunningham said. "You know, when you wallow with the hogs, you're going to get a little mud on you.
"And I am just fed up with them, I don't know any nice way to put it," he added. "And I look and I see them trying to put another one of their kind in as my circuit judge, as our circuit judge, and I find that reprehensible.

Thank the heavens he's just the Blount Co. mayor and not the U.S. Attorney General for the Eastern District. By the time he's done, Jerry Cunningham is going to have done just about everything - wrong.

Cunningham comes across as a redneck jerk. I remember in a first interview after he was elected he was quoted as saying he'd meet with the public but he wasn't just going to spend all day talking to them. I'm impressed with Reeves and Proffit as commissioners. Blount Dems have made some inroads, unknown Joe Gallagher got about 40% of the vote against Cunningham.
joshing around to me. Did you actually read the article or just the notes on BlountViews.
Well, since I wrote the "notes on BlountViews" one might presume that I had to read the article.
This sounds pretty clear to me:
