What really would have been news... (0.00 / 0)
...would have been if Greg Hinz had posted a column without citing the possibility of someone running for something.  We are in the midst of the silly season for such columnists, who will include a comment about some possible candidacy for office in virtually everything they write.

By far the worst such offender is Michael Sneed.  She is known for posting advance speculation on as many as a dozen potential candidates for an office.  If by chance one of them eventually runs and wins, Sneed will be the first to boast about having had a prediction about said candidate way back when, conviently ignoring the numerous other predictions she made that were full of it!


BTW, it's "Alexi Giannoulias". I've corrected the Tag. n/t (0.00 / 0)
