Have any of you heard about the Derwin Brown case?

I'm good friends with his sister and we are still co workers.

Derwin Brown (born June 22, 1954, Fort Knox, Kentucky - died December 15, 2000, in Atlanta, Georgia) was a police captain and the sheriff-elect of DeKalb County, Georgia, United States, who was assassinated on the evening of December 15, 2000 by defeated rival Sidney Dorsey.

I don't know why I keep thinking of him. I guess it's because Romney does not seem to be the type of 'man' who loses gracefully.

I just hope the secret service keeps a tight circle around our president.

He's got too much to lose. People that go after the president are usually the exact opposite: Completely powerless with nothing left to lose, and blame him personally for their misfortune.
