Of course, Cox couldn't even pull off a primary win over Taylor for the Gubernatorial nomination. To add to the confusion for statewide voters, which might've benefitted our candidate back in '02, the State Schools Chief, who was fortunate to keep that job in the GOP column after the disgraced Linda Schrenko, was none other than Kathy (with a K) Cox (with many believing the Sec of State was running for the job). ;-)
I'd be surprised if Cathy with a C would be able to win any statewide office now because of the dynamics, unless she ran to succeed Kathy with a K in 2010, benefitting on the confusion of the 2 candidates...
Did you read the articles from 2002? with Cathy b_tching about Kathy and how she was mooching off the athy Cox name? Rrreeeeow! Cat fight!
