Price mum on talks with Miller about congressional matchup

Tucked inside Rob Christensen's story on the possible Democratic primary between Congressman Brad Miller and David Price are interesting details about discussions between the two men. 

Miller said he sought to have discussions with Price on the subject. He said they talked briefly on the House floor and had one telephone conversation. Miller said he has been puzzled at Price's reluctance to engage on the subject. "I've been surprised by that and disappointed," Miller said.

He said Price's attitude has made him less reluctant on a personal level to challenge an old political friend.

Price said he did not want to comment on his conversations with Miller, and hopes all this will become moot if the court overturns the redistricting plan. A three-judge panel is scheduled to meet on the case Friday. "It's clearly a difficult situation in lots of respects," Price said. Read the full story here.

Hope they both disappear

Neither of them has ever won an election based upon the quality of their ideas or the merits of their character. Purely by means of gerrymandering. Both of them have been a curse upon this state.
