Well this Jo Co Democrat is pleased as punch to see this infighting. I can happily report that our meetings are now standing room only and we have newcomers (usually former Republicans) coming out of the woodwork. It is no longer embarrassing or lonely to be a Democrat in Johnson County.

So keep it up GOP! Some of us are enjoying the show.
