Finlay is a cocky, arrogant, prick who has never accomplished a damn thing on his own. Walked into a crap load of money and claims other’s success as his own.

Joe will be the only dem i will be voting for this cycle. Most of the people that actually know Finlay, hate him.

Would a real fiscal conservative take federal farm subsidies for his alleged crops out in Richland County? Kirkman does.

Any time a man has a lot of experience at something, he will generally be better at doing that task that some one who is inexperienced. Any questions?

DUI Shyster? Who represented you Sic? Was he a shyster too? Or, is it just lawyers that don’t represent your interests who are shysters?

I like lawyer jokes – think most are funny as hell. I know everyone hates us, until they need us that is.

As for Finlay, he’s a dickhead. He can take his KA frat beard and his holier than though BS somewhere else. He’s typical tea bagger “Do as I say, not as I do” when it comes to fiscal matters. Just like those stupid old tea bagging morons at all those rallies who say “Tell the government to keep their hands off my Medicare!”

The DUI shyster comment is a little much.

Lawyers are trained, and employed in the law. It would seem actual legal training and experience would be considered to be a significant attribute for a lawmaker, not something detrimental.

Solo attorneys are also small business owners. They are employers. They know first hand what taxes and government red-tape due to hold up the business community and our economy.

When picking a future lawmaker I’d take a small business owner with legal training over some salaried employee with no legal training anyday.

I gave Joe money but regretted it when I saw he was representing the drink and drown bars in Five Points in his district rather than the embattled neighborhoods and parents.

Only thing worse than Joe in that race in Kirkman.

I’m shocked…absolutely shocked! Joe McC has clients who are bars…and they pay him!!!! And he represents them!!! Oh, the horror….

Look porchsitter, you’re probably ass-hole boy Kirkman so don’t give us that Repugnant Party bullshit. Go crawl back up Billy Folks’ butt…
