Pachyderm Club Qualified

Re: Circuit Court judge vacancy:

Why are they having public interviews? For the last decade, it hasn't mattered how good a lawyer any candidate has been or if they've had any prior judicial experience.

It has only mattered who has been to the most Pachyderm Club meetings, especially who has spoken the most. Qualifications be damned.
