FRANKSMITHSAYSNB EDITORIAL:
Some claim that Phil Sherwood is and others feel that its O'Brien.
We soon forget that Bertha Lewis had promised to come knocking on the city hall doors including the Aldermen's doors too.
Who is Bertha? The President of the infamous Acorn organization and the Working Families party who backed O'Brien and six Aldermen during the most recent election.
SHE IS RUNNING CITY HALL--- YES SIR!
Hold off on a funeral for the Hartford Republican Party, says Hartford Town Chairman Mike McGarry...
ReplyDelete....Chairman McGarry said the "Working Families Party" brought in their big guns from outside the city, in the form of six unions, to help get their message out, and help get voters to the polls.
McGarry said the election of Working Families candidates to both council's instead of Republican candidates, is bad for business and sends a message to investors to stay away from the city of Hartford and city of New Britain.
He called the WF party “dangerous” for investors and business's in both Hartford and New Britain, with Arete Development Group backing out of their downtown NB redevelopment plan and development of old NB Herald Building.
I think you will find if you put radical WF candidates in charge of a city, businesses will flee like rats jumping off of a sinking ship, but they won't likely care anyway since most of them have apparently never worked a day in their lives and are seemingly just looking to live free off the tit of of the dwindling number of taxpayers.
ReplyDeleteThe "Occupy Hartford Protest" on the corner of Broad St. and Farmington Ave. in down-town Hartford lacked protesters on Friday 12/2/11, leaving only a small radio to speak for the movement amid the tents full of trash and garbage.
ReplyDelete“Neither rain nor snow nor dark of night,” one sign promises emptily, but at 2 p.m. on a Friday afternoon, with no people or college folks occupying the small empty tent city, the TV Reporters pack up and called it a day.
Since many of them are paid agitators, could it be possible that the check bounced?
ReplyDeleteNamed to the panel are Democrats Marjorie Hackett-Wallace and Board of Education member Brian K. Riley and Republican Mark J. Fortin.

Working Families aren't the only ones driving busloads of voters to the polls...Dumbocrats have been doing that for years, driving minorities from public housing to the polls.
ReplyDeleteAlso, they tell new voters who are also immigrants that they should register as Democrats, and they "have" to vote for Democrats...no such thing as "splitting the ticket" or voting for a candidate from another party if they prefer that candidate. Instruction pamphlets should be handed out at voter registrations.
The voters have chosen communism for New Britain, so either get over it or move to a part of FA--Free America.
ReplyDeleteThe incumbent, Chris Murphy, is running for a Senate seat in Washington and if his Democratic replacement in the 5th District is Chris Donovan, as expected, and the Republican is a moderate like state Sen. Andrew Roraback, the choice will be Roraback for this normally Democratic voter.
ReplyDeleteSo, why not Chris Donovan? He's more of the same, a wholly owned subsidiary of the unions. He said a lot about himself when he attempted to give a taxpayer-paid, phony job to James Amman, his predecessor as speaker of the House up in Hartford.
Donovan remained on the Reapportionment Committee when he has an obvious conflict of interest until it was deadlocked and he couldn't fix the district lines to his satisfaction.
And finally, he'd fit in beautifully in the current, mindlessly partisan Congress. Take your pick.
That's why we need term limits on state and national level?
When Gov. Malloy's victory over Republican Tom Foley was finally certified, the first CT Democratic governor in 20 years could finally turn his full attention to the state capital. There, the greatest challenge would come not from facing down Republicans and winning the broad-brush partisan debate, as he had in the election.
ReplyDeleteThe larger struggle that faced Malloy would be with his own kind -with his fellow liberal Democrats, many of whom viewed Gov. Malloy with suspicion if not outright hostility, as eager to undo much of the government they had cemented in place during years of near-complete control of the CT General Assembly at the Capital in Hartford.
What do you expect when you send a boy to do a man's job?
ReplyDeleteAn audit in the City of New Britain is very intriguing, since both political sides have strong views on the matter. We hope this does not result in higher taxes in the future, since Mayor Tim O’Brien said a mid-year tax hike is out.
