Dirty Trick, not Treats

I wish that all the tricks were due to Halloween, but the people behind the evil masks are shameless local politicians and their supporters.

The situation is very simple. After over 25 years of "breathtakingly arrogant" rule and patronage, the Middletown Republicans are terrified. As a result, they are resorting to such dirty tricks as making a sandwich of "Pat Walsh" signs with theirs placed as the bread two inches away from hers., hiding their message. How silly, how sneaky, and it won't work!

Even worse, they are trying to decimate her reputation by dredging up false charges, resolved 10 years ago, by quoting her opponent in the old complaint who paid someone else to file what was really his own suit against her.

Our citizens are not that gullible and won't be fooled. The tricks will magically become a treat for Middletown, as more will vote for open government by Pat Walsh and Jim Grenafege rather than continued canards and law- breaking by the current majority.

"Let the sun shine in!"
