“I’m not terribly worried about the adequacy of the pool. I just want to get the show on the road.”

That says it all..."not terribly worried about the adequacy of the pool."  This attitude that the commissioner just "wants to get the show on the road" is disgusting.  "Getting the show on the road," no matter what the outcome, plays right into the good ole boy mind set.  Never mind the competence of the company and ultimately candidate for Chief selected, at least we got the show on the road.  Contentment with mediocrity or worse is the name of the game in Hawaii, from the top down.  We get what we deserve.
