Maybe...

It is time for an investigation into Mr. Eastin's financial records to see just how much money he pocketed from the local telco or their astroturf lobby pushers.

The fact that he about faced is pretty good evidence that he wasn't paid off. If he'd gotten a big check he most likely would have stayed the course. From the above quotes it looks like the guy was duped somehow.

What's certain about Darwinism is that it would take less time for (1) a single-celled organism to evolve into a human being through mutation and natural selection than for (2) Darwinists to admit they have no proof of (1) - Ann Coulter

Good point. But I would like to see the lacals legal fees and any other damages be paid for by Mr. Eastin.

Sure, like someone didn't already do that. Here is the most likely scenario for this apology: It sounds like he was pissed off by high utility rates and sued because he didn't want more bonds having to be covered by ratepayers. Someone put the pressure on him and probably threatened him, so he backed down.

Re: Maybe...

Of course I don't know where you get your scenarios from, but if it's where I -think- you get them, your avatar should be a picture of your undershorts instead of a hat.

Re: Maybe...

... says the conpiracy theorist.

I love how conspiracy theorists all think THEIR idea is the ONLY sane one, even though there are dozens of other humdrums explanations to be had that make a lot more sense.

They're right -- the about-face signifies a realization of some sort. If you're being paid off, you're not going to suddenly just change your opinion and lose that payday.
