ALWAYS cuts that puppy a BIG duty.
Harold Hamilton is a no-nonsense businessperson. And the key voice - key bark - underlying Anoka County Watchdog. His judgments often have merit and his past attention to detail has been sound.
I await his judgment and analysis of the Hackbarth situation, as a GOP advocate, and as a good community person.
I respect Harold.
He should weigh in on this embarrassment now facing Anoka County; House District 48A.
I know in my heart he disapproves. He should go public.
Short of going public - Harold Hamilton's opinion in this would carry much weight with GOP House leadership regarding committee chair decision making, on a permanent and not temporary or interim basis.
If Hamilton continues to choose to not publicly comment, which is his option, I am certain he has House Speaker-designate Zellers' phone number. Zellers likely would be taking his calls.
Again, I have great respect for Hamilton and his business judgment and accomplishments. A non-public contact with Zellers would be fine. I just feel a watchdog should bark at anything clearly amiss. That's all. And barking over the phone to Zellers, that qualifies as helpful, even if not serving to enhance or maintain a publicly credible image. ALWAYS cannot credibly mean SOMETIMES. It's how it is.
