John Andrew's Allegiance

Have you read John Andrew’s article in today’s Denver Post? He really shows that his allegiance is to the Republican party over our country. He talks about the candidates in Centennial and the Cherry Creek School Board election. If you look at his Post column and his Backbone column, it shows he doesn’t care about what the candidates can do, only what party they are in. For example, he only complains that George Shen is “not ready for prime time.” What he fails to mention is that Shen is a convicted criminal (http://www.rockymoun…).

It also irks me that he makes the school board race so partisan. Our kid’s education is not a Republican or Democratic issue. I would expect that someone like John Andrews could take the time to research each candidate. Instead, he would rather it just come down to party affiliation. As a member of my kid’s PTCO, I was notified of about a dozen candidate forums. In addition, I know each of the candidates has a website. Is that too much work for Andrews? Is he that lazy that he wants to make his decision based on an R or D by someone’s name?
