What h...Gary Rich is another nice guy but unproven. What has he done to deserve to be a Freeholder? Because he comes from the shore? You have got to be kidding. We are ONE County so why do it have to be where someone if someone is from. Why do we not go for a battle tested leader who will get in there and rile things up and get the job done. <br /><br />Its sad and pathetic that we want medal winners and good ol boys to get in there instead of someone like Anna Little who had the coconuts to shake things up and ask some questions.<br /><br />You mean to tell me there is not a Mayor of a town with some eal life experience that we can find? Someone that balanced a budget, knows what it means to make tough calls, etc. <br /><br />We just want to pick someone that won't rock the boat. That sucks.<br /><br />So lets go for Wilkens and we'll continue the path to being bland and average.<br /><br />Wake up Republicans and lets think out of the box and elect someone with the coconuts to get the job done. Wilkens is a nice guy but again, if he never won the bronze we'd have never heard of him.<br /><br />I think John Franco who pitched for Mets lives in Colts Neck - why not just ask him to run if we want the "star athlete appeal" and the hell with being worried about doing the job.<br /><br />Makes me mad as hell and sick.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20985341.post-22115935219366841922010-03-03T13:41:44.099-05:002010-03-03T13:41:44.099-05:00Rich is a strong candidate also.
