Want to restore judicial integrity ... ?

... how about encouraging (or demanding of judge candidates) to resist the temptation to shakedown lawyers and others for campaign contributions, when the public (other than those judge candidates who take the money) suspect that lawyers hustle to "buy" judges at election time!?! So it is kudos to Frederic Cowan, a former state Attorney General and candidate for a seat on the Jefferson County Circuit Court, who recognizes that "it is important for judges to go out of their way to be impartial and independent"-- a sentiment I continue to echo, and which CANNOT be fruitful while hustling by campaign contributors rages on.
