then rid the town of the Gentleman's Club + One.

The voters are not "in the know" about how politics plays out...they think because "they" look good and smile and kiss babies and smooze the seniors they are the best thing that happened....and can solve the problems
this town has....

Need new blood and not from the generations of Rotterdamians....with an "O" on the end of their name...

Seems like the hold in this Town comes from Sicily.....


FDG   FDG   FDG      THE EXCEPTION......TAKE THE REINS.....CONTINUE TO DO WORK FOR THE PEOPLE.

Meet the new boss same as the old boss. He did such a great job in The Pit Bull City especially on taxes and fees. Will he bring over DM from City finance when she loses to AC for Town Clerk?  

what????

perish the thought.....maybe the Center or Sr Assoc wants her back...

go away quietly.

The Magnificent Seven plus Diane will install a Dream Team -- never before at any time in the Town's history will more talent be assembled in order to straighten out the mess made by the NNN gang plus Frank and Robert.

John Paulino is one of the most astute fiscal geniuses alive.....he deserves far more than the paltry $80,000 that he will be awarded. It will be a labor of love for him. Diane will be the penultimate Deputy Supervisor -- Gerard Parisi with his plethora of legal experience will make a wonderful Town Attorney with Donald Deangelus at his side -- Angelo Santabarbara will indeed make one of the brightest young Town Engineers in the region -- and Craig Surprise would be an excellent Town Assessor, especially with John Macejka as his assistant.....Of course --- these are MY picks, not the official choices of the Re-unite Rotterdam Team..

DILUSIONAL....
WHAT MEDS ARE YOU ON?????

I have the greatest respect for John Paolino -- think he was a great supervisor and has done well helping bail the city out.    Mr. Paolino would make an excellent Comptroller --- and while he is certainly worth $80,000 or more -- because of his expertise -- my guess is that his desire to serve the town that he loves is more important than the size of the pay chack offered.

Yes...All these wonderful lifelong bureaucrats that retire with full pensions then plead for a waiver so they can take another public sector job and collect a paycheck over $30K do for their love of public service.  They really aren't greedy non productive government leeches.

It is legal -- and you would do it yourself -- if anyone was dumb enough to elect you or appoint you to a position of public trust to begin with.

Quoted from DemocraticVoiceOfReason

It is legal -- and you would do it yourself -- if anyone was dumb enough to elect you or appoint you to a position of public trust to begin with.

Let's not confuse legal with ethical and moral.  Throughout history, there have been many actions taken by a government that were considered "legal" that were highly immoral.  One example is Nazi Germany.  

When the people we entrusted to write the laws are themselves immoral, you get immoral laws.  And Schenectady County is FULL of immoral lawmakers.

Agreed........and that's just what will run the Town if the Demos win....

Start stocking up on supplies, put your money under your mattress.....it's going to get rough...

while the others take their immoral and unethical behavior  and answer someday to a higher power....

If a person performs the job -- he or she is entitled to the compensation accorded the position.

The truth of the matter is that rotterdam needs new faces, names and fresh ideas. Not the continued retread/recycles. Let it be said, that REUNITE ROTTERDAM is absolutely no different then REVITALIZE ROTTERDAM.

And let rotterdamians remember, that just like REVITALIZE ROTTERDAM supported an ambulance taxing district....with REUNITE ROTTERDAM you will be guaranteed one!! Couple that with a multi-million dollar police compound and the rotterdam residents will no longer be able to afford themselves!!!

Rotterdam will then be the twin of the city of schenectady!!

THINK FOLKS BEFORE YOU VOTE!!!!

Government jobs and the compensation isn't subjected to the free markets.  That's why Greece is in turmoil.  Once the free markets caught up to them, the reality of the un-sustainability of the bureaucracy was realized, and the gravy train ride was over.

Bureaucrats name their salary and take it from the productive taxpayer by FORCE.  There is no politician that can change the facts of economic law being realized in Greece.  If Schenectady County and America stay on this same borrow and spend trajectory in order to maintain our government bureaucracies, we will realize the same facts of economic law Greece is currently living. For which the only solution to maintain order is submitting to totalitarian rule by force, or resisting totalitarian rule by revolution.

Paulino had his shot, instead he set us up for the Reval then fled the town for a position in the city why would we want him back?
