Harden & Brown vs COJ

[Diane Melendez]

So Harden is just pushing at shut doors to see if one will crack open.

So, the question arises, what did Mr. Jabour receive from Mr. Brown as an incentive to "resign?" Mrs. Brown, some may recall, was the Incumbent who was termed out and was an early Jabour supporter.

[Diane Melendez]

Yes, we recall. She is also running for office as well isn't she?

[Jimmy]

I wouldn't want to paint Mr. Brown with that... just yet. I imagine it's the lever-pullers at the GOP. They were scared poop-less at the prospect of running Mrs. Graham. Or, to be more accurate, at their apparent inability to run (as in, control) her, based on what she's said about Craig Field.

Their lawyers were looking for a way around that eventuality, given the rulings from the Court. I don't think they've found one yet.

[Diane Melendez]

Well, we predicted they would try everything the could...and they are doing just that.

[rpschutt]

So, re-phrase it...what did the Duval GOP promise Mr. Jabour? And, who is paying Mr. Brown's attorney?

[Colony Jax]

I was being sarcastic in that Graham clearly is not a GOP, good ole boy approved candidate. Otherwise, as Jimmy points out, they wouldn't be fighting to get someone else on the ballot.

One the first point, I imagine they promised him support in another race. Either City Council in 2011 or otherwise.

On point number two, I have no idea.

[CS Foltz]

I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when that conversation took place.....really makes me wonder just what was promised to who and for how much!

[spidey]

Perhaps, Mr. Harden owed someone in the GOP a favor...and he's representing Mr. Brown pro bono.

Naaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh....not Paul.....not hardly.
