I’m a little surprised this hasn’t popped up yet in the press. But here’s the deal: Sheldon Goldstein is facing Stephen Broden in a runoff election on April 13. The two Republicans both want to represent District 30 in the U.S. Congress. But way back in February, before the primaries, Goldstein and Broden appeared together on a radio show called Life and Liberty, which airs on KSKY (660 AM). On the show, Broden lost his cool — so much so that the Irving PD investigated the incident and have referred it to the case to the city prosecutor. Apparently, the host, a guy named Jim Middleton, had given each candidate (there’s a third candidate in the studio, a fellow named Charles Lingerfelt) a vase as a thank-you gift. Broden went so far as to raise his vase in the air, menacing Goldstein with it. The only reason I can come up with for why the Morning News hasn’t yet reported this is that the whole incident went down on a small AM station and on the weekend to boot. Anyway, you have to listen to the audio. It’s good stuff.
