Sharon I like John Loffredo a bunch. The only reason why I wouldn't want him to run for Assembly is a selfish one: I wouldn't want him replaced here in AP!
Remember what happened to John 4 years ago. The Democrats begged him to run for Assembly. He finally agreed. What happened next? The Democrats totally abandoned him. They gave him no money or support and hung him out there on his own. What a backstab! Now compare 2 years ago. The Dems ran two VERY politically connected guys on the State scene - Doherty and Reilly. The Democrats pumped in over One Million Dollars to their comapaign, more than 90% from out of the district (they still lost). If John is thinking about running, he ought to turn to our friend on this Board Michael Brim and tell him this time he wants the money pledged first. Let Brim take that to Scudiery and Cryan and tell them that's what it will take to get John. However, John is an honorable guy. I suspect he wouldn't want to take part in all that wheeling of money from other places like Doherty and Reilly did. It is a disgraceful practice, and one the Monmouth Dems use to a disgraceful extent. They've been challenged to run elections with an agreement not to wheel money, which the Republicans agree to do, but the Democrats turn it down every time. Maybe Brim would like to share with this board who actually is going to run for the Senate seat and the two Assembly seats that cover Asbury Park this year (I think I already know anyway). --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "2fine4u" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If this is another issue, why are all deaths, committed in AP, prior > to this one, treated differently?
