Montgomery County is going to have one heck of a primary this year.
Whitemarsh police Chief Eileen Behr, who was supposed to be appointed Sheriff, is going to run for the office since she was looked over as a successor to former Sheriff John Durante.
The Scoop is under the distinct impression that all three county commissioner are bi-polar. Jim Matthews is going to run. Wait, he had an epiphany and he's not going to run. Wait, he's going to run, but if he doesn't get the GOP endorsement he won't run. Bruce Castor is the GOP front runner and yet he thought it was important to tell The Times Herald he won't run without his party's endorsement. Joe Hoeffel, well, he's going to run without DEM Chair Marcel Groen's blessing. Wait, no he's not.
Seriously, gentlemen, if you think you're the right man for the job, just run.
The Dems are looking hard a Josh Shapiro and would like him to be the front runner.
And what in the world is Kate Harper thinking? She ran in '07 and she's running again.
The Scoop doesn't think for a moment she has a snowball's chance and that she's going to just take votes away from the GOP's endorsed candidate.
