Look at me. I'm a former Councilman. I invented reform. I stabbed every ally I ever had in the back. I used to work in advertising (as a newspaper creative, because I couldn't play nice with others), but now I sit in a real estate office all day blogging and trying to sound like 10 different people. Pay attention to me. My temper is short but don't bring that up, because I'll say you're using a stereotype. Helps me avoid looking in the mirror and seeing myself for the pathetic little piece of insignificant garbage I am. Maybe, instead, I should try to do a good job in the little bit of public service I still conned myself into (hoping I would get health bennies) but won't have for more than another year.

Long-term, there's probably not a council member who wouldn't consider and be open to thinking about a Mayoral run, but short-term, your claim is baseless. Your short of facts but have huge amount of venom, especially when you reference the word "friend" - must be because a sad little blogger like you doesn't have many (or any) real friends.

Not saying that I would have felt that way, but I don't think it's flawed logic either. Mello has supported Gardiner in the past (i.e. for Freeholder), and commented positively on him last night, so I don't find it shocking at all that he would want to publicly support Kurt and send a clear sign with his vote that he thought Kurt is up for the job.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8982097314224201904.post-74651690444284754692016-01-21T14:19:09.964-05:002016-01-21T14:19:09.964-05:00Great point.
