Editor,

Having worked professionally with outstanding judges and attorneys in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Florida during my career, I fully support that our courts be free of any hint of cronyism and political favoritism. This is not just my view, but is the law of our state and our nation.

A good judge will exhibit calmness, firm control, fairness and a knowlege of the law and court procedure. After reading information submitted by the McBride campaign and others, it became clear that he lacks the temperament, experience and skill of a good judge.
