Defer to Todd Smith
Well, Fred Phillips, and according to comments on an earlier post, Patti Garrett, are considering running against Matthew Hill as well. While it is no secret that many people want him out of office, it looks like Todd Smith is the best person for the job. I think Fred is great, but Todd is better qualified and would likely defeat him since the district votes Republican usually. Patti just doesn't have the credentials that Todd has, though she would still do a million times better job than Matty. If all three (Hill, Smith & Jarrett) ran in the primary, the votes might get split. It would be just the district's luck that the majority of the Republican primary voters would reject Hill (just like in 2004), but he would still win. I don't think that is possible since Garrett ran in the 6th District last time. I think everyone agrees that Hill doesn't have a chance against Todd Smith. Since Smith made his announcement, even Hill has refused to say if he will run again.
