Trash him all you want, but those are far stronger credentials than anyone else on the 19th bench. And, no, I don't know him.

You know what else is good qualification?

Actually having and doing the fricking job.

other than bitching Caldwell doesn't hear criminal cases (which he can do nothing about, nor could Randy), he can say nothing about Caldwell ' s performance.

Those are nice credentials, which makes his reliance on dirty and misleading campaign ads, instead of his unique qualifications for this position, all the more questionable.

I think most lawyers would tell you that someone's achievements in law school doesn't necessarily correlate with how well you perform as a practicing attorney or a judge for that matter(not that Piedrahita hasn't been very successful in practice as well.)

However, it's a little disconcerting when the guy's first exposure to the public at large is accompanied by misleading and disingenuous statements. Sure that's politics, but I would think (hope?) that of all elected officials, Judge would be the one that people would demand the most integrity from.

then you really dont know anyone on the 19th jdc bench. there are multiple people on there far more 'qualified' than piedrahita will ever be.

how is a millionaire plaintiff's attorney qualified to hear criminal cases? he hasnt been practicing criminal law...maybe it is because he plays GI Joe on the weekends with a volunteer SWAT team? give me a break.
