Do you think that Kevin Smith and the other Plaintiffs should have filed their lawsuit and the recent motion to correct errors?

Considering a lot of his actions with the little man syndrome when he was mayor. I do not know why this action would surprise anyone.  Is he so silly that he thinks if he won the lawsuit that the people would re-elect him??

Kevin Smith and Smith co are disturbingly pathetic. They lost an election, they lost the court nonsense. Enough is enough.

You know I have gotten in trouble a lot for referring to LMS, some people have no sense of humor when it comes to that, or have their minds in the gutter.

A quarter of the way through the first year of the next term, it doesn't make sense for Smith and company to pursue this case.  For the sake of Anderson, it should have been done BEFORE the election if it were truly an issue, or immediately thereafter.  Five months after the election, it would be very disruptive for Mr. Ockomon to be removed from office, especially because it would leave the city leaderless. Kevin Smith cannot reprise a mayoral role he has effectively abandoned, and there is no deputy mayor that I know of.

If the case is pursued, then it costs the City money in legal fees and in economic development. If the case is pursued and won, it will cost the city money to hold a new election because Kevin Smith will NOT be reappointed as mayor, temporary or not.  And it's quite likely that Smith would lose a very divisive election, were it held on the heels of his lawsuit. So what is the point, at this late date? It's a lose/lose/lose situation for Smith and Company to continue the lawsuit.

My two cents.
