Remember it is an all candidates meeting-Q&A's-NOT a debate.
Hope it doesn't turn out like Shelburne's though.
The Annointed, I mean acclaimed Mayor was given a seat at the table, even thought he had no need to campaign.
Did he sit back and give the incumbents and the new politicians a chance to voice their views?
Why no. Eddie doesn't want his apple cart upset, so he took every single opportunity he could to go on and on and on about how the CURRENT team (and I am paraphrasing here) works well together and gets things done and of course doesn't question Ed.Basically, while running over on his time on most questions, he was campaigning for the incumbents.
Wow. Way to build bridges with new councillors, just in case your ratepayers decides that change is needed. Although if King Eddie says no change is needed, except change as it singlehandlely benefits him. (DEEP, YMCA, out of town children user fees in parks, etc. etc.)
But I digress. Don't forget about the all candidates meeting tonight in Melancthon at 7 at the Hall.
You get what you pay for. Cavey, with THE worst attendance record, who gets paid whether she shows up or not, must have felt Eddie would do enough campaigning for her, she didn't feel the need to attend. Although if you question her she pulls out the mother of kids card. You know what, suck it up and show up or give the position, man OR woman, who will show up at other times, except the photo ops.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget Chambers wasn't there either. The incumbents, the "A" team as Eddie calls them are so confident that they don't even have to show up.
