Stortz under fire from GOP candidate

First off, here's Jackie Majerus' story detailing the fleeting opportunity for Bristol to land, perhaps, a bit role in Hollywood's upcoming production of The Lovely Bones, a surprisingly wonderful novel written in the voice of a murdered girl.
But from a political perspective, the real story is that Republican City Council hopeful Ken Cockayne, a 2nd District candidate, is taking aim at Mayor William Stortz, the supposed GOP leader in town. Cockayne said that Stortz mishandled the movie makers by failing to accommodate exactly what they wanted.
That was a "bad business move," he said. "It's really turning businesses off on working with Bristol."
It's never good for a candidate to have his own party turning on him.
