The only panelist that would not confirm/deny their objections to media coverage was the St. George Represenative.

I don't think Jim Richardson would take part in something like that. He's got too much riding on his reputation.

These allegations regarding cancellations are allegations about cancellations of allegations for Pat Smith's allegations on your accusations.

We need an audit to investigate the real reason and people behind this cancellation.

What's the deal with these St George reps? This is at least the 2nd time they have backed out one of these forums.

If you ask me, I think St. George supporters are behind this cancellation.

It's the third time the SG people have backed out of a forum.

I just went to a forum last Wednesday that had reps from st. George and Better Together. Each group gave a presentation and there was a Q and A session. The advocate is making a big stink over nothing and I have to question their motives.

Tania Nyman has no problem being in front of a camera and making a fool of herself. Better Together recently hired professional consultants/ media people who have basically told their members to hush unless given direction. Their Facebook page has gone quiet recently also. I suspect this is the actual reason.....

The leader doesn't even live in the proposed city of St. George. He is a professional political and media consultant.

Landed a $717k no-bid state contract to do IT work within a month of pledging to run the campaign to incorporate St. George, which was a month after he incorporated the business in the first place. Nothing shady there.

I have no dog in this fight, but what is so shady here? Sounds like a businessman. Creating a business with a sole intent doesn't sound shady at all.

If the state awarded the no-bid how does this tie in with St. George?

Kip Holden puts a BILLION DOLLAR TAX on the ballot. Twice.

But these people leading the St. George effort are the real danger!

It didn't get me all worked up either, but he just feels the need to start every St George article with it. It's like his beacon to summon Russian.
