Good Lord, no.
I am a Republican. I would vote anything else over him.
blech
ole hump the money Humphreys can sure pick em [not] our great gritens and now slick O'brien
Not even close to the best money can buy. This is the same clown that brought Joplin the Wallace Bajjali fiasco. This is the same clown that brought Joplin a "so called baseball team" and a stadium that they can't keep a team in. Yeah, we need this in Missouri politics.
The only choice the Republicans offer is big money, special interest Rob O’Brian or anti-abortion Bill White? Looks like it’s time to vote Democratic.
My question is how Mr. OBrian's campaign acquired my work email address. The business I work for is a member of the Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce and I therefore receive updates and notices from said Chamber. However, I do not think that Mr. OBrian's former position as Executive Director of the Joplin Chamber gives him the right to access and utilize the Chamber's contact list for campaign purposes. To my knowledge, that is the only way he could have gotten my email address. I think we just dismissed a governor who was alleged to have used a contact list from a non-profit for campaign purposes and it was his own non-profit. What do you think Randy??
I have exactly the same concern as expressed by Trent Walker. Many of my collegues, including myself, received the same email. Only common denominator....on the Chamber's mailing list. Just another example of the corruption that engulfs the Chamber and City Hall.
Something smells here why would you quit a jop that pays $170,000 dollars a year and all you have to do is lie to city concil once a month about all the jobs you created and show up for a ground breaking. For a 36,000 doallar a year job plus a $105 dollar a day per diem. HMMMMMMMMMMM
Uh Oh! Possible misuse of an email contact list. Smelling another witch hunt here! Maybe he knows Greiten's campaign manager. These "non politicians" really need to get familiar with the ethics laws before they start their campaigns. Trump and his corrupt cabinet's ignorance of the ethics laws are unbelievable, but seems to be setting a precedent for all political newcomers to trip over. Maybe time for another investigation.
Rob over Bill White any day .
One republican over another is still the same thing so it doesn't really matter.
