I am a Democrat. <BR/><BR/>The idea is to exert political control at the local level, in order to develop candidates for state level positions, to further your party goal. <BR/><BR/>Fine. <BR/><BR/>This group is so far off the mark, because their actions are focused on single negative actions. <BR/><BR/>Their duty was to be on top of the issue and do their due diligence PRIOR to the vote.<BR/><BR/>Prior to the vote they could have motivated people with facts and education on the issue. <BR/><BR/>After the vote, they fall back to motivating people with anger. <BR/><BR/>They desperately need a win, but this is not a third world country - assassination by petition has consistently failed.<BR/><BR/>Especially with this issue, when people will vote their pocketbook. The council voted in the fiscal interest of the citizens. Simple as that. <BR/><BR/>Anything they try to say after that is moot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
