Sheriff Jim Neil is a nice guy! (Judge Tracie Hunter's case)

He's a nice guy!

How tall is Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Neil?

My guess is that he’s over six feet tall.

How did Sheriff Neil defeat the Republican machine candidate Sean Donovan?

Because the black voters in Hamilton County carried his tall ass, that’s how?

Not only did the Republican power houses dump a boat load of cash and endorsements into Donovan’s coffers – they threw the soft and slow spoken Neil under two buses. 

They ran ads stating that he overlooked a dead body in a car during a crime investigation.  One blog supporting Donovan posted this comment about Neil, “Not only is Donovan the ideal Republican, his opponent Jim Neil is a horrific candidate!”

Ouch.

And double damn!

Nevertheless Jim Neil ran a grassroots campaign similar to the campaign that Judge Tracie Hunter ran. 

It was very grassroots with a team of hardworking volunteers who got out there and talked to the people.

As I have volunteered on several campaigns; I would see Neil and his volunteers everywhere including Cincinnati’s black communities. 

Yep, Jim was at the club – Celebrities – campaigning haaaaaaaard.

He promised he would change the culture of the Sheriff’s office, you know break up that Good Ole’ boy club. 

Talking to Jim along the campaign trail he came across as one of the nicest guys in Cincinnati, but he  never displayed strong leadership qualities, although he displayed honor and loyalty. 

Sad to report that it appears that Sheriff Neil is just another do-nothing Democratic Party chair Tim Burke Democrat   Black people have to watch those “Tim Burke Democrats”
(for the record, there are some fine candidates running that have Burke's support that we 100% support)  CAJD blog - we are NOT DEMS.   We are not Repubs. 

If I’m forced to say one good thing about Councilmember Christopher Smitherman (the old Smitherman) is that he warned the community against those type Dems. 

And then.

Wait for it.

He joined one, Mayor John Cranley.  Yep Chris teamed with John.

This blog has been on hiatus taking care of beloved – that beloved son – beloved - beloved - beloved.   

I ain’t got time for this.

I really don’t have time to do any activism work.  Yes, Dear Readers, blogging is activism.

It harms democracy when Sheriff Jim Neil interviews on the Lincoln Ware radio show and admits that he was not watched the video of the Avery Corbin and Vanessa Enoch arrest.  Then he goes on to use key words that Tim Burke Dems use when they come to the black community

“Discretion”   and      “circus”

Translation we arrest certain folk at our “discretion” and we got the radio call stating the courthouse was “circus”

Under Sheriff Neil’s watch.

A man escaped from the Just-us center and two people were arrested and should not have been.

The biggest flaw I have and that we have at this blog (besides being too exhausted to edit) is that we support people who we like.  We like Sheriff Jim Neil.  (In my Nathan Ivey voice) he’s a nice guy.

But nice guys are often ineffective leaders.

I charge you Dear Readers to contact the Sheriff Neil and let your voice be heard.

Be polite ….be respectful……be direct…..Tell Sheriff Neil your opinion…..Black folks carried him to election victory.

NEXT POST COAST ATTORNEY CHRIS FINNEY -  He's making a lot of money with the NAACP paying him to represent the current President - which is ironic because he singlehandly bankrolls every socio-economic justice against black folk, brown folk,  poor white folk, rich white Dems,  progressives, gays....
