You're right; he doesn't seem to be acquainted with the term "professionally responsible". <i>"...does anybody think that would have happened if Riley hadn’t put him in as an appointment?"</i> No way! Only the power that comes with incumbency could have gotten that little twerp elected. Otherwise, we'd be discussing (in much more favorable terms, I'm sure) AG John Tyson.

Troy King appears to be yet another piece of work Riley has appointed to a powerful spot. I know he was elected last time, but does anybody think that would have happened if Riley hadn't put him in as an appointment? Very nice post.
