Oh the bullshit is flying fast and thick

The O and BO reported yesterday that Jeff Kropf dropped out of he reelection race for House District 17.

The stated reason? Kropf has a three hour morning gig on the weekends over at KXL. They're saying that the "equal time" law would begin to apply to Kropf's opponent Dan Thackaberry.

Huh?

Kropf could easily give up his radio show for the duration of the campaign in order to avoid this law--and then pick it up again once the election is over. Much greater radio hosts have done that.

Instead, he's dropping out of the House race and keeping a weekend radio gig?

This doesn't make any sense at all. There has to be more to this story.
