Will Coleman's sour grapes team challenge our sheriff in 2026?

In the Republican primary in 2020, challenger Scott Hammonds decisively defeated incumbent Sheriff Ernie Coleman and went on to win election in November. The Coleman team never accepted their loss, and now there are rumblings with at least two names floating of a sour grapes challenge to Sheriff Hammonds from the Coleman team in 2026, probably in the Republican primary.

Team Coleman was so bitter over their primary loss that a number of them openly backed the Democrat nominee against Hammonds in the general election in 2020. In some ways that is not surprising, since after being elected sheriff, Coleman had kept much of the sheriffs department leadership team of his Democrat predecessor Alan Jordan. The Coleman administration of the sheriff's department was in many ways just a warmed over Jorden administration.

The tantrum appears not to be over, and Team Coleman seems to have its eye on 2026.

Violent rhetoric is what got us here.

In that case, Bobbie, you are either deaf or a liar.

Sorry, Bobbie, but those who send you your talking points clearly did not send you the full clip, only a few words taken out of context. That is a common technique of the far left. The entire clip was played on a talk radio show and Robinson specifically said that the nazis and WWWII imperial Japanese were the "people who needed killing". Your version is an outright lie, similar to the "very find people" Charlotteville hoax that leftist Snopes finally admitted was not true.

MR was speaking of the political left and a variety of others he don’t like unless his girl friend needs an abortion. At least he is man enough to admit it. He’s a sick SOB but he doesn’t hide behind anybody’s skirt.

At this point, some of us should have found a bookie and put money on this. If this isn't a textbook example of "we told you so", I don't know what is, bruh.

The Dems don't even figure into this. This has everything to do with an internal war between two, if not three, factions of the local GOP. The same struggles going on locally are going on everywhere else, it just isn't being talked about outside of the supper table...yet

The numbers across the board just ain't adding up here. I don't think anybody would be peeing on the ol' fireant hill in saying that this comes down to discernment and an almost dark sense of humor. I wouldn't take a one sided coin in Las Vegas.

I think Corey would agree that, while the cast of characters from the younger Conservative side can be extreme in some ways, they've all acknowledged a very strong common ground in the old school "Conservative Burt Reynolds NASCAR Democrat" type of way.

Somebody has to admit their mortal and this is a learning exp.

Robinson was specifically talking about Nazis who murdered Jews and did lots of other evil in Europe and the Japs who bombed Pearl Harbor in WWII, which you would know if you listened to all of that portion of his speech instead of pulling a few words out of context. Little Bobbie, who claim to be against Nazis but you have a problem with someone saying the WWII Nazis under Hitler "needed killing"?????????

Maybe your being an apologist for the Hamas nazis has given you a different perspenctive?

those that have a different world view have no reason to exist? Can you clarify? Is this some sort of MR " some people need killing" or more of a philosophical rant?
