He probably spoke highly of Constantino too. As long as they have a Texaco star next to the name? Here's a real dream team-Nicky, KR, Joe S, DVR and Ritano. You could charge admission and balance the town budget. Make Channel 18 a pay per view station. |

I bet you think those Nazi's were right-wing radicals, huh? Well, wrong again. They were totalitarian leftists. Your kind of people, DVR.
Kevin, You are starting to sound like the other twits who post here. First piece of advice -- DON'T ASSUME THAT EVERY DEMOCRAT IS A LEFTIST or A SOCIALIST. Because many of us are neither. Second piece of advice -- DON'T ASSUME THAT YOU CAN SPEAK FOR ME. You don't know even know me .. let alone know what I am thinking. |

13 years as the Democrat darling in Rotterdam. He could do no wrong (when the police look the other way)I wasn't even out of high school and I heard the stories of his sexual advances toward his female students. It amazes me that I was aware of it at a young age, but the adults and authority were not. Now that I'm an adult, I see how corrupt Rotterdam politics is, and how our police department is one of the highest paid in the state. Knowing the Town Supervisor is a sexual predator is quite a bit of leverage for a union boss going into contract negotiations. |

I can honestly say that I never voted for him and never knew him. |

Rotterdam has had some great women serve on the town board. I have already mentioned - Judy Dagostino, Holly Vellano and Diane Marco. Another great woman who served in the past was Arlene Gallucci.
For those who wonder about the list that I posted on December 16 - the only current member of the Town Board that I named to the list was Matt Martin. While I was hesitant to name a current member of the board to the "dream Town Board", I have been very much impressed by Matt's performance so far ... and I am convinced that IF he decides to pursue a political career that he will go far. |

Not a huge enough jerk for the Party not to endorse his candidacy. The Rotterdam Dem machine put him up time and time again. You may have voted Rep, but the Democrat party apparachik were scared to step out of line. They just slapped him on the back and gave him a "go get'em Jimmy". Just because Jimmy's gone, doesn't mean those people that played political footsies with him are too. Many of those that enabled and covered for Jimmy are still here and active in Town politics. I hear one may be coming back to Town Hall to fill a newly vacated office. |

Yeah Town Hall didn't have enough mirrors for Holly. She was an empty suit. |

CHARGE ADMISSION??? That is putting it mildly. Although yer talking about rotterdam, where three ring circuses are expected! |

I don't really care about the mirror thing! That statement is just 'cat fighting'! The fact that she has flipped in and out of every political party, is enough to question her motives. ND did the same thing. Judy Dago did the same. So did ang santabarbara. They are basically all called political whores. |

They already do, and it already is... unless you get your money from the Metroplex and go tax-free. These are just some of the things that they spend our ticket money on each year. |

I could work with Joe S (if you mean Joe Signore) and Nicky (if you mean Nicki DiLeva) and Ritano (if you mean Debbie Ritano) ----- not only work with --- but work well with .... they are ALL dedicated, rational community servants. |

Oh no Cicero. Are you referring to the rumors of Paolino coming back or Woodward being a full time Supervisor? Both of them had the "goods" on Jim C from their days on the Mohonasen beat. Paolino was also Jimmy's neighbor, and Woodward was a school board member who employed Jimmy's C mother as a quid pro quo for getting the Rec of Taxes gig. Say it aint so Cicero! Nice rhyme eh? |

BT--you are so conrete--you never get the real meaning. Not cat-fighting Dumbo--it meant that she is so self-centered that she only cared about her appearance and who liked her. Her rating as the darling of the Senior set took a nose-dive when Diane Marco got the committee. The seniors liked action and Diane provided that. Try to expand your brain. |
