Dr. Carl Mumpower announced he will run again for Asheville City Council. This is good, as it would be difficult to take notes for eight hours a week on people calling forced transfers of money to their special interests “children” and “synergy.” Whereas many appreciate the foundations of this country, Mumpower appears to be the only person right-of-left-wing in town who has not been talked out of running for office by fellow conservatives. Since this was covered as news, I don’t believe I need a McCain-Feingold moment. Please correct me if I am wrong.
