Compelling thoughts

Having read Paula Dockery's Nov. 2 Other Views column, Voters are big losers in era of nasty campaigns, I’m astounded how someone now exhibiting so much common sense could have served for 16 years as a Republican in the Florida Legislature.

This article and others previously written by her reflect cogent thinking — a quality perhaps educed by removing oneself from the skunk swill of being in office.
