FLASHPOINT for Apr 03, 2006
Monday, April 3, 2006 | 7:59 a.m.
The important number to remember where attorney Tim Cory is concerned is 227. That's the number of votes he lost by four years ago to a much more heavily funded opponent, Mark James, in a GOP County Commission primary. So he has vote-getting power among the Republican primary electorate as he now seeks to defeat GOP state Sen. Barbara Cegavske. Now Cegavske is no Mark James - she is no liberal Republican and she has a base in that area. And Cory's initial announcement was bereft of anything but cliches, not that too many aren't. He will need lots of help to defeat the senator, who will try to avoid the same fate her pal Ann O'Connell experienced. Let's see if he gets it.
