This endorsement doesn't amount to much more than being a small pimple on a large man's ass. Yes, it's nice that he got an endorsement but the COPS endorsement doesn't carry any weight...in fact, they are considered to be an irrelevant splinter group within the law enforcement community. Compare the COPS endorsement to the eventual endorsements from the various POAs and the prison guards.
Simon needs to start talking about relevant tax issues that appeal to a cross-section of both parties...marriage penalty (I know this is a federal issue but he should talk about it anyway), property tax relief (increase in the property tax exemption and relief for heirs and/or partners in real estate...heirs and/or surviving partners should not be subjected to a tax reassessment of property) and capgains relief.
For crying out loud, Simon MUST slam each and every tax increase proposal by the legislature...if he doesn't, he deserves to lose.
