Oh Oh, Schafrick is involved.

Will Mocabee be next?

Ken, why don't you spens some of this time working on your contract with the city?

Mocabee is all talk an no action. You won't see him there. He'd have to actually do something.

Anonymous said...

Mocabee typifies the Republican Party in Brsitol.

Why don't we throw out all the politicians and whiners out , and have no leadership. Let everything go to referendum and know-it-alls won't have to make a decision.

The article from Ken Johnson made ot appear that this is his project, his idea.

Are Craig and Cockayne involved at all?

johnson wants to make it appear that everything is his idea - too bad that he can't move past the "pat on the back" stage and actually do/complete something.

In commerce, a broker is a party that mediates between a buyer and a seller. A broker who also acts as a seller or as a buyer becomes a principal party to the deal. Distinguish agent: one who acts on behalf of a principal. A brokerage or a brokerage firm is a business that acts as a broker. A sales person working for a securities or commodity brokerage firm is popularly (but incorrectly) called a "broker." A broker in that context is, strictly speaking, an exchange member who actually executes the purchase or sale order in the pit, on the exchange, as a service to the client of the firm for which that salesman works.

Be careful, that is our next mayor you are talking about.

Macabeef is just a hopeless naysayer wishing he could be a somebody. His own party can't stand him. It would be really something if he actually really had something positive to contribute to society but he doesn't. "Viscantwinti" doesn't know just how much having him onboard will hurt him and is campaign. Larson must be resting easy.

Give Schafrick credit. Like him or not... at least he is involved.

They won't let Schaffrick be the GOP Registrar so maybe he thinks he has a shot at the COO position?

Anonymous said...

so how did we make out on Saturday? where do we stand with signatures as of today?

Anonymous said...

Interesting that the city leaders are considering adding a COO to the organization with a resultant annual cost of maybe $300,000.00 or more, yet would not consider funding most, if not all of the VNA request this year until they had a chance to work things out.

Yep, a certain logic is lacking.

? - haven't heard anything yet, does that mean that they are still counting?

Still counting as to how much it will cost us?

Anonymous said...

Has Ken Johnson officially announced for mayor, or is he going to wait?

Anonymous said...

Can you be COO and Mayor too?

1100 and holding.

Anonymous said...

Johnson is going to wait.

He usually disappears between elections: I am surprised he is visible at all.

Anonymous said...

1100 and Holding~2000+ to go and Still Waiting! Come on Minor and Cockayne You Said It's Going To Be Easy To get All Those Signature's~I Would Have Thought By The Way You Shoot Off Your Mouth That You Would At Least Have 2500+ Signatures By Now!
What Are you Holding now.....??????

Interesting the way Kenny Johnson signs his Email.

Doesn't mention his role, or is it former role, as President of Municipal Energy.

Don't fret, Johnson will bail them out.

Ask him, he'll tell you.

He is the Republican Frank Nicastro.
