Dynamic Duo

I think the MPD did a commendable thing when they endorsed both Myron Lowery and A.C. Wharton for city mayor. That endorsement did two things inadvertently. It dispelled the notion that Chief Larry Godwin doesn't have the support of his fellow policeman and a candidate improves his chances of getting their vote by vowing to remove him. Secondly it shows that they are with Wharton because he has been projected to win. But they have no problem with Myron Lowery and what he is doing.

I for one could get use to the present arrangement. I wish they would just stay the way they are now. The two men have two totally different management styles. In between now and the time the city/county arrangement changes. We need them both. We need Myron Loweryto finish the job he started in the city. Likewise Mayor Wharton may be the only one that can convince the county residents to consolidate. That makes them a dynamic duo.

Read about an appearance they made together.
