....but of course we alreay knew that didn't we?
That Issue 9 had nothing to do with anything but a special interest group and a guy from Anderson township trying to stay relevant in a city that has passed them by.
Proof?
Every city and county issue they backed went the opposite way they wanted.
How more out of touch can these CAVE* men be?
Doug Bolton Publisher of the Business Courier of Cincinnati says "the supporters of Issue 9 ... quickly blathered on about how the failure of Issue 9 was not a mandate for the city’s streetcar plan"
So let me get this straight,
We defeated Issue 9
We elected by a wide margin a mayor who wants the streetcar.
We elected Laure Quinlivan, whose whole platform was the streetcar, to city council.
Yet "they" interpret this as a sign they need to keep fighting the fight?
As Doug said, "The losers need to find another fight."
Amen, preferably one in their own community.

ReplyDeleteWell, the water district issue went their way & Winburn got elected, so it wasn't a total loss. The council pretty much shelved the water district idea this week. I imagine they will take credit for that. Some COA Ter also gave one of the health issues their blessing.
ReplyDeleteI was just reading a transcript of a court case & in it, some guy kept going on about the "Finney Standard". scary
