mike barefield failed again..lol we want be seeing that racist here anymore. he lost on every point. he was never accurate about one thing. never have i seen a worse record on one election. now im sure betsy can beat dupree cause bairfield is saying she cant. he is has made such a fool out of himself. its very rare that a poupous bully gets a sound beating but the town has spoken on how they feel about the barefields..and i will bet any amount that they lose there legal thing. he is a lawyer that obvioulsy bases his cases on shaky grounds. mike and his dad are toast. burnt toast..tonight they are eating crow....isnt it great to know that mean spirited people like the barefields have no support. and betsy is on a role if she can just keep the momentum goin she is our new mayor. the blacks will vote in a block for him. the whites must do the same for betsy. ljd did not endorse her so he is not goin to be reelected. he was write about negitive campaigning it killed him &lt;br /&gt;

responce to notgonavote. it is obvious that you are the one with the child like behavior. there was never any proff of betsy being responcible for any negative ads. i agree that the frist hattiesburg people did not like ljd. but betsy had nothing to do with it. i talked to dickson myself. and if you dont vote you are in fact voting for dupree. you should not only vote for betsy you shoule encourage your friends to. this is not about negative ads this is about defeating durpree and fairly. now the voters have stated with there votes they they feel like betsy is more able to defeat dupree and fairly. and like a child you do not except what you dont want to. just because you lost. stop acting like a baby and be a man and help all of us defeat dupree and fairley. dont cut your nose off to spite your face. which is exactly what you are doing. one of the reasons ljd lost was he would not get off the attack on betsy and state what he would do. he has no one to blame for his defeat other then himself and the awful askbetsy people and there negative campaign. so be a man and help your neighbors. any good republican would put down his davis banner and pick up his betsy banner. that is what good people do .. the rep. in the town have spoken. you can either stand with them or against them but you cant stand in the middle. be a man &lt;br /&gt;

		<description>From the numbers I saw (and understand that Dupree's total will increase by hundreds, perhaps to 4,000+--and don't forget, Dupree had no real competition so there will be more out voting June 2), Betsy has an almost impossible task to be elected. The total Republican votes were 4,450. Betsy has alienated all three Republican candidates (Everyone recognized Coker toward the end in remarks about Betsy), she viciously attacked LJD and alienated a vast majority, if not all, of his supporters, and I'm sure all of you read Mr. Senne's comment that he would not endorse either Republican candidate, and that he had not yet decided whether to endorse Dupree. Doing the math, and assuming Betsy wins the nomination, lets say all of Senne's supporters either vote for LJD or stay home. If only half of LJD supporters vote for Betsy,she'd be fortunate. So, Betsy has her 2100 + 700 of LJD supporters, add another 480 for half od Senne's and Coker's supporters and what do you have? 3,300 votes = a losing ticket. Let's further assume that it is true that the Democrats sent voters to cross over and vote for Betsy, due to her alienation of MORE than half of the Republicans(At least 53% of the "Republicans"--probably more than that if there WERE crossovers--voted AGAINST Betsy)and thus, be the easier candidate to beat, then it is mathematically impossible for Betsy to win.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other side of the coin, LJD is the ONLY Republican candidate with a snowball's chance to win. I believe that Betsy's support (the hard-core "powers that be" and the votes they control--a very tight/loyal group who vote together for only Republicans EVERY time) would never "lower" themselves to vote for a Democrat, so Lee Jarrel would have Betsy's 2100 + his 1300+, half of Senne's and Cokers, and ya get close to 4,000.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anybody see it differently (besides Betsy, or whomever "Its worth a Taste" is)? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sounds mighty accurate to me.  Bu then again, I'm not much of a "told-ya-so" kinda guy.  Just not in my nature.  (wink, wink)</description>

		<description>The following comment is so naive:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Comment from: hello [Visitor] &lt;br /&gt;
Why run Republican if you cant support the other candidate when you lose? The loser cant truly back their Republican standards if they won't support their own party! Lee Jerald if and when you run again your supporters want know how to vote because you cannot stand behind your party. If I was in your position I would back Rowell because it would be better for you in the next mayoral race, because it would be easier to beat Betsy than it would be to run against the Fairley campaign. Lies cant beat lies! LJD I have heard about you for years search your heart and see if this is really what you want to do is to give it back to Fairley and Dupree. I know you stated that you have a top notched investagator working on Dupree/Wynn/Fairley and that if they come back into office that they will be indidated and you think that you will be elected into office that way but if you cannot support the Rep. now who will you support then. I just want you to know what I have heard you know anyone can start a rumor weather it be true or not. They say you are a drunk! You have affairs! Is it true or a lie? As you can see I can or anyone can start something waiting on you to finish it. What are you going to do? &lt;br /&gt;
******&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It's called principle and ethics.&lt;br /&gt;
