The Plot Thickens and so do the players

I was up until midnight last night talking with people about this Board of Regents appointment. I finally went to sleep and kept laughing. I can live with getting this or not getting this with no trouble, either way. That is a good place to be. But I have them (Dobbins, Al Spradling, and Bill Holland) in the crosshairs and they cannot win. They can just lose more or lose less.

Bekki Cook emailed me last night and said that Al Spradling called her yesterday morning and wanted her to get in the mix --she said that she was not interested in the position and that she had sent a letter of support in for me. Spradling went on saying that I did not like Dobbins and that they needed someone in the position who would agree more with Dobbins --later she emailed me another email saying that it seemedto be coming from Bill Holland more than Dobbins.

I emailed Sen. Jason Crowell and he said that he would never support Al Spradling for a re-appointment and he knew he would have to get out in January. He has told many people that he would be supporting me and he will do so. Here is the crosshairs: If they get in and mess it up for me, they will have to answer big time to me and to all the people who wrote letters for me. Jason said I could bring Dobbins down in three days. If they get in and I get it, they will have to do a real battle with me on the Board.

Anyway, now that I have the facts that they are messing in the system, their goose is cooked either way. The plot thickens. Just the strategic thing that takes my mind off the family problems. I don't care what happens to these people --they are fodder.
