It hadn’t gone well. Being an experienced lawyer, Randy quickly recognized Ben’s questions for what they were: a cross-examination. Things started out friendly enough, but when Ben insisted on funding a third-party review of all political action committees who’d expressed interest in supporting his Congressional bid, Randy’s back went up like a black cat’s on Friday the thirteenth. “Did you fall on your head over the weekend, my friend? You know I’d rather kiss a rattlesnake on the lips than give somebody our hard-earned money just for their opinion,” Randy objected. It wasn’t worth getting into an argument. There was plenty more for Randy to manage, so Ben would handle this himself. After all, it would be his name on the ballot. In that regard Ali had been one hundred percent correct. It was up to Ben to ensure every alliance he made was credible and in line with his values. And while he did believe children were ultimately better off with the family than placed in foster care, something Ali said had haunted him all weekend.
