BRACK: Cagle-Delta Air Lines flap signals beginning of 2018 election season

BRACK: Cagle-Delta Air Lines flap signals beginning of 2018 election season

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher  |  The political season is about upon us. March 9 is the last date to qualify to run in primary and non-partisan races, with the actual political primaries coming on May 22. Should a runoff be needed from a primary, that date will be July 24.

The biggest recent political bombshell centers on whether Delta Air Lines and other airlines should get a tax break for fuel bought in Georgia. What at first seemed to be a normal political question got quickly escalated when Delta announced it would not give a discount any more to members of the National Rifle Association (NRA).  Many other companies announced backing out of close ties with the NRA, so this did not seem to be a problem for Delta.

BRACK: McKoon’s far-out views could benefit the Democrats

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | It’s a natural law: a pendulum, once swinging, will always reverse its course.

Sometimes, it takes forever for that pendulum to move the other way. Look at the State of Georgia, Democratic always until 2002, when the Republicans finally won the governor’s office. Up until then, the statehouse had been slowly moving toward a more conservative, Republican bent, with the GOP finally gaining control of both houses in 2004.
