These statements are emotional statements. I’ve met both candidates. Both seem to be solid people. Disagree about policies and platforms but emotional disagreements are empty.

One could start attacking Guillory for his support of Edwards, opposition to Higgins, backing by the current administration, going to court over child support payments and restraining order, etc.

Base your decision on goals, platforms and policies...not emotion.

I’ll go by simple logic.

Carlee flip flops on her ideological views to pander to a conservative area. The problem is that one’s ideologies can dictate how you govern. She’s also worked for government and quit her jobs TWICE. And if you want to talk emotion, she used the whole “I’m a short woman” spiel in the televised forum. That’s as emotional as one can get.

As far as Josh, he wasn’t my first choice. But I’m willing to give him a shot if he aligns with more of my political views. He’s also openly campaigned for Rispone this time. For me, it’s an easy choice.
