And look where Bob Bloxom is today...
I understand the point you are making......but I look at the 2 issues differently.
Not only did Dix say he would support tax increases, he was a gun grabber.
I wasn't able to vote in the 2003 primary, because I was still battling with DMV to prove I actually am a US citizen - but I was paying attention to it. Had I been able to vote in the primary, Dix would not have been my choice anyway.
