I’m weird, but in an imperfect world I like the idea of having a district attorney who is feared; one feared so much, in fact, that crooks spread rumors about him to make him look bad. Institutional bad guy Ron Moore was primaried out of the DA position in Buncombe County this time around. His opponent would have walked right in if somebody else hadn’t petitioned to run as an unaffiliated candidate. Now, trying not to be political, it looks like the big issues in the race will not be things like who will be tougher on crime; but who will protect the environment most, or who will legalize pot first.
