I found this on Fort Wayne Left blog a post written by Otto:
Scott,
I don't disagree with you, but I don't think is a question of good people. When the Republicans have a lock on politics in the county for 70 years you can't expect too much-it becomes a structural problem.
We have Kelty to thank for spliting up the Kabbal. People...aka politicians are tired of submitting to the 10% extortion of their salaries to Steve Shine et. al. for the honor of serving.
Despite all of the Republicans praising of competition etc, there has been no political competition around here in decades-thanks to the organized crime structure of the Republican party. The Dems can't be let off easily either...they could keep pounding this extortion racket, but they don't want to rock the boat-lest their positions are threatened.
A classic example of this is Tracy Warner. He takes the easy and honest shots at Kelty as a substitute for real investigative journalism. He has to admit that Kelty was a gift of god. He can appear to be an investigative reporter/editorialist who asks serious questions and we all think that FW has an honest press...oh I forgot they did that fish story
