Don’t remember a thing about him...
Stith was, and is, a fine man.
That’s him, Thomas Stith (I was thinking of Stith but came up with Stokes, which I should have known was not it because that’s the name of the pair of brothers that served as Cleveland mayor and Congressman, respectively). I e-mailed Mr. Stith in 2004 to try to convince him to drop his long-shot primary run for Lt. Gov. (which was obviously going nowhere) and run against Price, noting that if he could hold President Bush’s share of the vote but get 30% of the black vote in Durham (IIRC) he’d beat Price. He wrote a courteous reply thanking me for the e-mail, but decided to stay in the Lt. Gov. primary, where he never became a factor.
AK-47, what’s Mr. Stith up to now?
