I agree that while she doesn't deserve to be publicly branded or ostracized, I don't believe she should be allowed back into politics. She has demonstrated her character quite well and shown she is not to be trusted. No one is saying she shouldn't be able to have a successful life but she should find a way that doesn't involve public funds.

^ I agree CF, She's paid for her crime, however, she shouldn't be allowed to be put in a position of public trust.
There are plenty of other people in the community that would be willing to get involved. They're just never asked because they don't hang with the right crowds. The problem is all to often the various board's in this town turn to the chamber of commerces' most active member's for a feeder system to fill some of these positions. There are other organizations out there where you can find great people that could help with the decision making and also to help improve the reputation of this city. I'm tired of seeing some of the same names recycled through different positions around the city, county and various other boards. imo.
After all...isn't that what Albert Lea is trying to do? Create a positive image?

I have a question, I would love to apply for the Human Rights commission but live in the country and out of Albert Lea proper. Does that automatically disqualify me?
