Huckleberries Online

Rumorama

Seems the Repub CC spanked Joisse Knowles Tuesday night for serving as treasurer for Constitutionalist Rose Johnson, a long, long, shot, in that three-way race in House District 5. A motion to censure Joisse and ask for her resignation as a precinct committeewoman was passed easily. But I hear Joisse's hanging in there. Joisse's an old Rankinite whose husband Lee once ran as a third-party candidate in a legislative race to knock off a moderate candidate (if memory serves me correctly). Dunno if the Elephants would be picking on her if The Ronfather was still around. But I consider this a tempest in a teapot. You can file it under "Republicans behaving badly."
