Not only was there mention of policies Latas supported during her tenure, but also mention of her frustrations, and those emails she sent to citizens. I have to wonder how she got their email addresses.

Nor should they rely for their information on the opinion and speculation of a defeated, bitter old man.Oro Valley Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13172961942974944796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-361824526868946733.post-27606396240652691812010-04-07T12:37:05.701-07:002010-04-07T12:37:05.701-07:00While I know that Art and many others on this blog...While I know that Art and many others on this blog are ardent supporters of Ms. Latas, I don't really think the newspaper should be expected to print an unfettered, uncritical assessment of an elected official.

She took the time to send the reporter the letter that you so kindly published in its entirety, and he chooses instead to focus on things that happened before she was elected, including the political activities of her ex-husband.<br /><br />But the worst part is including the hypocritical comments of KC Carter saying that he would never campaign against his fellow Oro Valley Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13172961942974944796noreply@blogger.com
