I'm not one of &quo...Who in the world is LTS? <br /><br />I'm not one of "Mike's people" and I don't care who runs or who drops out of this race. I don't think I, in good conscience, could vote for any of the options on the table although I know nothing about Bautiste and will have to hear what he has to say.<br /><br />Obviously, the only two people under discussion for Mayor that have ANY experience in government are Zimmer and DeFusco, but as far as I'm concerned that's not a requirement for someone to toss their hat in. Don't know why anyone would toss valentines to Nason who thinks DeFusco is too inexperienced. <br /><br />There is no bar to entry regardless of whether there's a candidate that has some similar things on their platform already(although it's a nice campaign strategy angle.) By that notion Bautiste shouldn't have declared because bike lane enthusiast Dawn was already in the race. <br /><br />I've got my fingers crossed that more candidates will throw their hat into the ring and hopefully there will be more options come election day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8982097314224201904.post-37415363972938026032017-04-27T16:40:21.157-04:002017-04-27T16:40:21.157-04:00I hear Soares is running around saying Pupie gave ...I hear Soares is running around saying Pupie gave Karen the money.

If ...Way to try to flip the story on its head LTS. If Mike's people didn't want their desperate efforts to get Karen to drop out to be known, they should have been a bit more circumspect. <br /><br />Has anybody associated with Zimmer ever approached Mike to dissuade him from running? I thought not. <br /><br />Personally, I have an open mind over whether Mike should be running (that's should as in does he have anything to offer not does he have a right to) since no one has even tried to make the case why this inexperienced kid should be Mayor. <br /><br />I look forward to hearing him explain what he has to offer beyond the "Dawn sucks" talking points put together by LTS. If the only positive vision he has basically copycats Karen Nason (pro business, less restrictive zoning, etc) then its hard to see what he adds to the existing field other than LTS inspired venom.

I suspect the other train wreck, Pat Waiters, will toss her hat into the race at some point too.<br /><br />You all need to be a little more careful about your own personal campaign agendas leaking out in your rebuttals. It's obvious that the Zimmerbots on this blog are livid about DeFusco's presumed run and don't think he should be running and that is what underlies all the shade and the obvious hatred of Defusco. Only some democracy should be "applauded". How dare he toss his hat in the ring! <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8982097314224201904.post-60096167623681849982017-04-27T09:50:44.749-04:002017-04-27T09:50:44.749-04:00And bring some of that yummy pizzaaaaa!And bring some of that yummy pizzaaaaa!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8982097314224201904.post-65460478662735590382017-04-27T00:41:15.054-04:002017-04-27T00:41:15.054-04:00Vote for who you believe in.Vote for who you believe in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8982097314224201904.post-25267428772838266992017-04-27T00:40:12.525-04:002017-04-27T00:40:12.525-04:00She owns multiple businesses - She lives here as w...She owns multiple businesses - She lives here as well.

And Ruben Ramos who supports Mike is no stranger to the concept of paid for votes. He and Pupie had quite a battle fighting over them in 2013, and they partnered in the effort many a time before. You know buying votes at the polls is exactly the same crime as buying them through VBM's don't you? <br /><br />Karen has the same right to run as Mike, and by many measures she's far more qualified. If you watched the video she's certainly more articulate. Mike should put on his big boy pants and focus on explaining why he should be Hoboken's next mayor - something nobody has been able to explain so far - instead of trying to push candidates out of the race.
