It seems that Corey Stewart is still attempting to flirt with running for the U. S. Senate, according to the Richmond Times Dispatch. In an interview, Corey boasts that people either love him or hate him:
“I’ve been a very controversial figure, and people either love me or hate me,” said Stewart, 42.
The moment of blithe self-awareness followed a ceremonial announcement of his bid for re-election as at-large chairman of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. Elected countywide, the position answers to more than 400,000 constituents.
But with political ambition to spare, Stewart, an affable international trade attorney and spirited conservative, has designs on higher office — a seat in the U.S. Senate.
Corey still doesn’t get it. No one I have ever talked to hates Corey. They dislike his style of governance–that fly by the seat of your pants way of saying one thing to one person and the opposite to the next person. Corey has a reputation for breaking his word. He signs pledges he does not keep when a better deal comes along, such as his sell out on the Avendale property. His total disregard for previous pledges to guard the Rural Crescent was highlighted on this blog. Most people who know Corey say he is affable and fun to be with. Many who know him simply don’t trust him, having been screwed over in the past.
