Cathy Cox Won't Be At State Democrat Convention This Weekend; She'll Be Out Of Country

According to InsiderAdvantage Georgia:

When the Democrats gather next Saturday in College Park to hail Mark Taylor as their standard bearer going into the fall elections, Cox will be out of the country on a family trip, a knowledgeable source said.

“She and her sister have had it planned for a long time. She’s not trying to send a message or anything else,” the source said.

Typically, state conventions are a time to celebrate the ticket, heal wounds and united for the fall push, but Taylor and Cox have had a little trouble burying the hatchet after their bitter primary campaign.

“Cathy Cox has been invited to come and speak at the convention,” said State Democratic Party Chairman Bobby Kahn. “We invited her months ago and extended that again recently. We would love for her to be there.”

However, a source said that when Cox was given the date of the convention "months ago" it was reported to her as Sept. 9, rather than its currently-scheduled date of Sept. 16, and that the error was only corrected during the past two weeks - long after her trip was scheduled.

Taylor spokesman Rick Dent said, "It's a shame. We'd love to have her there. She'd get a great response."

Regardless of what the date was supposed to be, does anyone think she'd have scheduled this "long planned" trip for the month of September on ANY DAY had she been the nominee?

Didn't think so. She's an ungrateful human being. I'm glad she lost the nomination. We've finally seen that for Cathy Cox, it is all about her. I'd rather Taylor lose the general election than her kind win anything.

And you're a coward, Mr. Anonymous.

What exactly is so wrong about taking a vacation in September after losing the primary? If Cathy was in fact told the wrong weekend, then blame the schedulers and not her.
