The Hartford Courant's headline "New Britain Wondering: Will Mayor Run Again"?

With Mayor Stewart being quoted by Dom Stacom of the Courant citing that he will decide within a month.

With the Democrats jumping for a chance to win back the Mayor's seat with candidates Paul Catanzarro , Representative Tim O'Brien and former Mayor Lucian Pawlak seeking their party's nomination which certainly will end up with a Democratic primary.

With the upcoming Senatorial election many of our residents that showed up at the mayor's fund raiser in support for his candidacy subsequently, decided not to vote in hopes to retaining his Honor at city hall.

Whether you like him or not as residents he did keep the taxes low with his demanding cuts by all his department heads rather than budget increases.

 With his proven ability in steering the right approaches in spite of the opposing Democratic control of the City Council says a lot of his ability to manage our city's affairs.

I can see the panic in the voters faces at the thought of their losing the Republican leadership at city hall.

Who will replace his Honor if he decides to say I quit?

 An ultra liberal socialist with all the giveaway programs unless a strong Republican steps into the election fray in retaining the Mayoral seat for the Republicans.
