Sure, it's a little disheartening to lose-but when you have political bosses sacrificing you for the "Greater Good", making those back door deals, forcing people to fill out absentee ballots when they are in Town to ensure THEIR win- I will NEVER back down. I take exception to the comments same old face,flying monkey,etc. Childlike comments from people too scared to do anything about it for themselves. I am proud to run again. I want my family and friends to know- I am NOT a quitter. So I will take those negative comments and only let them make me stronger. I am in excellent health and look forward to a very vigorous campaign. How can you judge someone's ability when you have no real knowledge. Actions speak louder than words. I deserve the respect I have earned. The Democratic Committee has graciously put their support behind me. For that- I will be eternally grateful. They asked for nothing in return. After all the campaign shenanigans I have been put through in years past- this year is truly a breath of fresh air. Like it or not- I do NOT plan on going away anytime soon. My thanks to all who have worked so tirelessly to support my endeavors. Finally, I may reach my goal- to serve the Town I love and grew up in.

Connolly has steadily lost support which provided past victories. She embroiled herself in a party committee fight, ultimately lost a committee seat in her own election district.<br /><br />In addition, she has alienated many Democrats, has screwed up with embarrassing missteps, leaving her records open and accessible to political opponents who "borrowed" the town oath book and copied it showing she twice forgot to sign a critical oath of office as clerk and registrar.<br /><br />She won her last caucus fight with the party apparatus supporting her by only 50 votes and should have won by more than 100 as Mark Premo did.<br /><br />She no longer enjoys the support of the organization which is stronger via the victory in committee seats which translates to more caucus support.<br /><br />You must also consider that her support with the Republicans is really non existent. She has this line because her brother bartered Independence Party endorsements for the GOP in exchange for her endorsement. Most Republicans will not support her at the polls any more than they did Evers in the last town election.<br /><br />In any struggle you must keep trying, keep your eye on the ball. Liberty is not afraid to loose while Connolly is afraid to have an opponent explaining why she is going to try to be a Democrat and a Republican at the same time.The North Greenbush Pipelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10847530819826381257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324100446875791677.post-29432519834403583112009-08-05T07:50:01.741-04:002009-08-05T07:50:01.741-04:00All good comments- I express my thoughts based on ...All good comments- I express my thoughts based on the facts- she has run against Katie 2 or 3 times and has been crushed every time- what makes you think she's going to turn the corner this time? She's just not a legit candidate- believe me- I'd love to see her beat Katie but precedence is not on her side. And I would not want the job- I'd have to take a huge cut in pay, and , unlike the Supervisor who left a good paying job to work for nothing- I need to adequately provide for me and my family.

She has the kahunas to run year after year-even with the comments of the likes of Interested Party. Perhaps, you would like to challenge her. Give the girl a shot. She has never backed away from any challenge. Obviously, you don't even know her. Besides, if Ms. Connolly is so disabled she cannot work- how do you justify handing her another two years? Can't argue with that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324100446875791677.post-46650618018406612822009-08-04T14:17:29.554-04:002009-08-04T14:17:29.554-04:00We're not afraid to print your comment, nor ar...We're not afraid to print your comment, nor are we hesitant to tell you we think you are wrong about Ms. Liberty.<br /><br />Usually colorful terminology keeps a comment like this off.
