Double Standard for Alisa Boykin

As I read over the results of the "small hearing" regarding the voting eligibility of Alisa  Boykin.  Where is the results and the comments regarding incumbent Tom Witts' court hearing that was held today in the Gwinnett County Superior Court.  Now, he admits to owing an excess of $28,000 in taxes to the state of Georgia and he indicates that this was a good business decision to protect his business.  So, is there a double standard for Alisa Boykin to protect her family from extended hardship by negotiating with the bank regarding the foreclosure.  But, there are naysayers who say they do not want to be led by a person who makes bad decisions or mistakes.  Hey, but mistakes come to make us strong.  Successful things are made out of mistakes, ask the makers of Viagra!  This medication was initially meant for a heart medication but it had severe side effects, and was born Viagra!
