Fellow Flatlander: Katharine Douglas



Katharine shows off her newly cut hair on The Alluvian patio this summer.

Katharine Douglas was born on April 27, 1986 in Miami, Fla. Her parents are Dr. Rusty and Betty Douglas of Robert E. Lee Drive and she has one brother, Philip, a junior at Pillow Academy. A longtime Greenwood resident, Katharine moved here with her family when her father assumed the role of Pastor at First Presbyterian Church almost 10 years ago. She is currently working for the Viking Hospitality Group in downtown Greenwood.

A 2005 graduate of Pillow Academy, Katharine first attended Presbyterian College in Clinton, South Carolina. She recently moved home to be closer to family and to work toward a nursing degree at Mississippi Delta Community College. Whether at the Mockingbird Bakery or the Viking Cooking School, Katharine is always a friendly face to see around town. She recently cut ten inches of her hair for Locks of Love.

Obama or McCain? You Decide.

Barack Obama is the only candidate that has been successful at reaching across party lines in the presidential election. I as well have not had much to say on The Dirt. It is unfortunate that I no longer consider myself in tune with life in the Delta and can no longer comment as such. My free time (what little of it I have) has also been dedicated to following both the presidential election and American Idol like a hawk. That having been said, I am not afraid to admit that my name is on Amy's list of previously sane people who are seriously considering Obama in November.

If that were to happen, my pick between Obama and McCain would also depend on who each picks for their veep candidate.

In an opinion editorial previously published this week, I predicted that the roller coaster ride the economy has been on this week would cause Republican presidential candidate John McCain to fall in the polls. "My prediction: By the end of the week, McCain's stance on the economy will cause his Palin bump in the polls to all but disappear." According to Real Clear Politics , "one of America’s premier independent political web sites," my prediction came true. Currently, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is ahead in the polls by 1.9% , approximately the level by which he was ahead leading into the Democratic and Republican conventions. The Palin bump that McCain joined is now completely gone. This reversal of fortune is due, in part, to Obama's strength on the issue of the economy and the popularity of his e...
