Who gets that $100 grand if she doesn't run? Green can't claim any of that money can he? Is it possible that he knew she was going to get tossed and wanted to make sure she would have enough to run without county support? And how will Green manage that anyway, supporting someone off the "line" when he is on the line?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-57599832239037797802009-02-07T16:06:00.000-05:002009-02-07T16:06:00.000-05:00Let's not forget this people.

Smart + Politician can mean trouble for the Mayor.

Many people like the mayor. So she hasn't done a great job. Who would he replace her with who could do better? The rumor about PMUA commissioner Brokaw has died. She has never run anything anyway besides presiding over rate increases at PMUA so I can't imagine that Green would find her to be a suitable candidate to run a city of this size.

It matters what his "masters" at the county level want to run the plantation this time around. THEY choose the candidate for Plainfield, not him.

He said things were going to be different and now he had everything in place to make Plainfield a shining star. So far my taxes have increased, my MUA bill has increased 90 dollars from the quarter and the potholes are ruining my 11 year old car. I don't trust Green's word as far as I can throw him. We know that he wants the mayor so if she is not the candidate we know that its because of him. If he replaces her, who would he replace her with? No one who runs with Green can be independent.The people have lost confidence in him. The people are not happy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-79535270717183947182009-02-06T16:29:00.000-05:002009-02-06T16:29:00.000-05:00Green would never do thatGreen would never do thatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-79452704369079449612009-02-06T16:28:00.000-05:002009-02-06T16:28:00.000-05:00I can't imagine why Green would go back on his wor...I can't imagine why Green would go back on his word to the mayor. Is he going to find her some cushy soft landing like a county job to soften the blow to her ego? Who would he get to run in her place? Another novice with no experience to shove down our throats and serve as figurehead so that he can continue to play "puppet master" for another four years? We have seen what a "Jerry" backed candidate is capable of. Not me. not again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-92233551792355298022009-02-06T13:57:00.000-05:002009-02-06T13:57:00.000-05:00Although I totally don't believe it would be right...Although I totally don't believe it would be right of him to do so, as he is just as if not MORE incompetent than any of his picks, I bet he will if the screaming becomes louder and more organized from Plainfield as a whole. Mayor Sharon will realize the price you pay when you "play the game" is that the ones who brought you in are MORE than willing to throw you overboard...or even, under the bus when things get tense. Good riddance to bad rubbish as they say...it's too bad the garbage truck won't be able to pick it up in one stop.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06347593167569748403noreply@blogger.com
