Better than Sharon by a stretch, but not the one that will lead Plainfield anywhere. It'll just be a different spin on the same old nonsense.<br /><br />Annie McWilliams has heart and soul, and smarts, but needs to fly free of the machine, the special interests, and to set a course independent of New or Old Dem turf battles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-57571727342691712792010-12-24T00:09:46.909-05:002010-12-24T00:09:46.909-05:00@Mike 11:29AM -
Have you EVER had a conversation ...@Mike 11:29AM -<br /><br />Have you EVER had a conversation or a meeting with Councilman MAPP? I would like to know what makes you say Councilman Mapp has "an overblown ego". I believed he was arrogant only because I read and heard he was. However - during Plainfield's mayoral election I had a conversation with him and I did not see, hear or smell arrogance.<br /><br /><br />This is a NASTY rumor brought on by SLIMEY JERRY GREEN and his mini me -Ghettofied Sharon RobinsonBriggs.<br /><br />Mapp is the one to take over as Mayor once Sharon is RECALLED!!!<br /><br />RonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-42887917053252827332010-12-23T14:29:25.194-05:002010-12-23T14:29:25.194-05:00I voted NO because the most likely replacement wou...I voted NO because the most likely replacement would be Mapp, and he is far worse, what with his overblown ego, undeserved sense of entitlement, achingly poor social skills, and overwhelmingly loose grip on the facts. Talk about ambition exceeding ability! <br />Mike.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-37229524600863315382010-12-23T13:15:08.933-05:002010-12-23T13:15:08.933-05:00If Jerry Green is the one to make the decision on ...If Jerry Green is the one to make the decision on whether she goes then we truly are lost. We might as well name him Dictator. What is the matter with people in Plainfield. If you do not like the mayor and her actions it is our responsibility to recall her and take her to task for not doing what needs to be done. After that any town council memeber who has served more than four years should not be reelected no matter how much good we think has been done. The longer these individuals are in office the more their power grows and in most cases is excersized for their own gain (absolute power corrupts absolutely). Let me put it very simply, we are in a fiancial crisis, so the first think they do is lay people off in order to scare us and dig into our pockets further. Please explain to me why salary cuts are not on the table. Please do not give me the BS that their are contract articles that prevent this. If the public employees were truly interested in the wellfare of the city and its residents the first thing they would do is help their coworkers by sharing the burden. A small cut in salary (10%?) will be hard as each individual will have to give up some things but at least you will still be able to live. I know what I am talking about as I have been out of work for 21 months. I have applied for jobs well beneath my abilities and cannot get hired to be a PeaPod delivery person at Stop & Shop. Once I start dipping into retirement savings I will be forced to move out of NJ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-66050422631742073342010-12-23T13:01:29.459-05:002010-12-23T13:01:29.459-05:00Dan, this is overdue...

Who's capable enough to reign in the crime, control the out of control "leaders" of this community and rebrand Plainfield? I believe Sharon is a capable leader but not in a Mayor position.

Yes...will she ?? <br />Ask Jerry Green. When he decides she is too much of a dead weight around his neck then she will be cast aside. Just like Reed and Burney siding with the Bibi vote against the Mayor..it most certainly not because they thought she did anything wrong..it's because Jerry Green said she did something wrong.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06347593167569748403noreply@blogger.com
