I've been a little bummed this week about the resignation of Utah Attorney General John Swallow. Not bummed because he resigned - he needed to - but because I know him and his family fairly well. I voted for his opponent, but I wished him well when he entered the AG's office in January. His son Taylor was on my cross country team and in my AP U.S. class. I've had all his kids in class and they are fantastic people.
A cautionary tale I guess. He was accused of more ethics and campaign law violations than I can even list. Ambition run amok. Maybe attorneys general should be appointed by the governor just as the U.S. AG is appointed by the president. Seems like one job that should be above politics as much as possible and the whole process of fund raising is corrupting.
Anyway, I wish his family luck.
