Ag commissioner: Cole best choice on Nov. 6
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 10/30/7 The 2007 race for the post of commissioner of agriculture and commerce shouldn’t even be a contest, given the incumbent’s inability to take responsibility for himself in office. A wag could put it as incumbent Lester Spell against the beef plant. In this, the state loses both ways: with Spell refusing…
