While I respect what Mr. Eagle and Mr. White are trying to do to remove current and ineffectual City School Board members, especially Cindy Elliott (a person who should never hold elected office) I for one cannot and will not accept the political party that has endorsed these two individuals.

The Working Families Party is a known corrupt political organization with direct ties to ACORN. They are the true danger to this community and all people that live here.

I am also very encouraged that Mr. Thomas Brennan is staging a last minute attempt to unseat Elliott as a write-in candidate. If I lived in the City I would gladly write-in Mr. Brennan’s name on the ballot.

Even though my political views are clearly not in line with the Democratic Party, my hope is that some day, local democrats will overthrow Boss David Gantt and remove the stranglehold he has on the Democratic Party, city government and the city school district. My sincere concern for city residents and city children negatively affected by Mr. Gantt and his politics does outweigh my political slant. David Gantt needs to go, plain and simple.

I’m sorry but I cannot support a corrupt political organization, even if it means eliminating another one.

I’d rather both David Gantt AND WFP/ACORN were gone from our community, never to return.

I wish the three of you well. Again, I commend you for challenging the powers that be in the city.

The problem is there really is no choice in city races. Its usually a choice between the left leaning democrat candidate and the far left leaning ultra liberal working families party candidate.

In fairness I am sure Mr. Eagle believes what he says. That makes it all the sadder. If the city school board really wants some change they need candidates who are at least willing to move to the center. Years upon years have resulted in more and more problems.

It is interesting to see that super liberals are reading this blog. I wonder if anyone at the two headed Mayors office is reading it?
