Your cynical response to John Sabo’s letter (5/20) says all I need to know about The Source Weekly. I have 35 years of experience working in government, private industry, politics in my younger years (as a Democrat) and even a little community organizing (in Chicago no less), and I can tell you that Chris Dudley has as many tools to be a good governor as Obama’s very short Senate career and “community organizing” (which means nothing in terms of running a country well). Your blind liberalism and anti-Republican approach to everything lacks any insight into real problems of our country. Every several months I check out the Source to see if it’s become more enlightened (that is balanced), and I’m sad to see nothing has changed.

– Glenn Miller

Editor’s note: For the record, we’re not opposed to Dudley or trying to suggest that he wouldn’t make a suitable governor. However, comparing his political track record to Obama’s, even pre-2008, is a stretch.
