11th hour politics at it's best. I really enjoy the spin. I know Charles personally and consider him to be a trustworthy and honest person, as well as a friend. However in his zeal to support Mr. Mitchell personally, I believe he forgot his place with regards to his membership representation. "Under pressure from John Moolenaar..." MEANS John has worked to receive 12 of the individual county endorsements out of 14 that I represent on the Farm Bureau Board of Directors. "...the Farm Bureau told me I either support Moolenaar for Congress or be terminated," MEANS if you go against a majority of the members supporting a candidate, we (Farm Bureau members) won't re-elect you. Either way, Charles put it on the line for his candidate. Will he be forced to fall on the sword because of it? Depends on whether the membership considers this to be a greater issue than the years of service he's given to them.
