Barton's Balance: More Lawsuits

Can a candidate sue himself for political malpractice? I'm sure Gene Barton will look into that after the election. An article in today's Clarion Ledger describes Barton's balance:

There's no question there were too many frivolous lawsuits in Mississippi at one point, he said. The doctor his wife worked for as a nurse was sued 15 times, he said. "But now the pendulum has swung to the other extreme," Barton said. "I'm running to bring back balance."

Let's get this straight. Barton wants to take Mississippi back to when there were too many frivolous lawsuits? That's his idea of balance? No thanks.
