Questions of Rendell

elSicomoro · 05-20-2002, 06:02 PM

I didn't want to vote for Rendell just b/c he's from Philadelphia. By the time I moved here, the Village Idiot was in charge (John Street).

Casey seems to be trading on his father's name, and I definitely don't like his positions on abortion and the minimum wage. I like Rendell's background as D.A. and Mayor, I like his stances, and I particularly like the persona, in that he seems to walk his own walk. Fumo hates him (Fumo's a tool), Street seems cold to him (also a tool), and Ed pissed people off in the Democratic Party (while he was running it no less) with the election aftermath. Yep, I gotta go with big Ed.

Incidentally, this will be my first PA election. I didn't register early enough for the Presidential election, and this is the first place I've lived in which you do not receive a notice by mail for voting. My bad.

But, with a Daily News in hand, I now know where I go to vote in my neighborhood. (The beer distributor had no Inkys, and I wanted to read the little debate Smerconish was having with a city resident...it's an interesting piece.)
