It doesn’t seem a big stretch to say, “Big city mayor. CEO. At least one parent engaged with the kids. Choose two.” On the other hand, I’m not competent, organized, or driven enough to run for mayor, so who am I to say anything…

If Jenny says she can do it, she can. ‘Nuff said.

On a different note, WOW, the Trib today really unloaded a double barreled shotgun on Jenny. First there were two carefully worded letters to the editor that compared and contrasted Jenny and Becker, and came down solidly behind Becker. The consensus of the letters (and Walsh’s column) were the same: Jenny is not ready for prime time and is simply riding dad’s coattails. As if to say: “”Stay in the kitchen (or at least county council) until you have grown up, Jenny!!”"”

But the coup de grace was the piece by Rocky on his version of events surrounding the “childgate” conversation in which he denigrated Jenny’s ability to be mayor because she had young children. Regardless of the chain of command of facts in that story, the fact Rocky (and the Trib) ran that Op Ed at this time in the election cycle is amazing. What a chop block from hiz honor. But the trib is complicit as well: is this a little retribution against you for leaving the paper? Inquiring minds want to know.

Regardless the polls have put Jenny on the defensive and these orchestrations are meant to put her on the ropes, and let Becker squeak through gates. Very interesting. Was this in Rocky’s head when he endorsed the republican, err, independent, Christensen long ago knowing a Rocky endorsement might sink a Becker but would not hurt Christensen who didn’t have a prayer to get elected anyway? What would a Becker/Wilson runoff be like?

Fun and games in the capital city.

J.D., of course, was the big name personality at the table. I was, and still am, nobody. But, it was he who humbly went around the room, graciously waiting upon all those who were in attendance, bringing us refreshments, etc. His kindness, generosity, and humility remain an inspiration to me.

His combination of intellect and civility were and are rare. Our world is poorer with his passing. I loved him, and I will miss him.

I do remember suggesting that Utah as a theocracy should revert to territorial status. This brought boos from the RMs and a tolerant smile from Dr.Williams.

The thought manifests as the word.
The word manifests as the deed.
The deed develops into habit.
And the habit hardens into character.
So watch the thought and its ways with care.
And let it spring from love,
born out of concern for all beings.

JD Williams was a good man. I only had the chance to hear him lecture about a half dozen times at the U of U, but it was always entertaining and enlightening. He always had such a unique view into Utah politics, and was so passionate about ethics. Thanks to Ted Wilson for having him in to class on a few occassions.

Though I am as much a conservative as JD was a liberal, I admired him greatly. He actually worked with my grandfather, Neal Maxwell, at the U. They enjoyed one another’s company very much. It’s sad to know cancer claimed them both. I’m sure JD and Neal are enjoying renewing their discussions about Utah politics even as I write.

God bless, and rest in peace, JD.
