That quote from Armand is a real doozy. By comparison, Regina looked a lot better in this morning’s paper with her quote.

Greg: agreed! That’s saying a lot.
November 4th, 2009 at 4:07 pm
Er, “saying a lot” that Faticanti is the classy one in this situation, not that I agree with you. LMAO

Quotes from Armand were pathetic….he was obviously living in a dreamworld thinking of eternal entitlement to win no matter what. His bubble burst. boo Hoo! And Regina….such bullshit. Probably few challengers because no one could stand the thought of having to work with her! Another jerk feeling endlessly entitled and empowered to say whatever she wanted to prove she could break a new superintendent. Off with HER head….They both come off as pathetic loosers with no insight whatsoever as to their behavior. And the Sun doesn’t even begin to analyze this behavior and what’s really going on and how it affects this city that could be great. We sorely need an additional paper! Thank God for LiL and other blogs….

It is all your fault, Lynne. You and your fellow bloggers, Mimi and Kristin. Shame on you bloggers. HOW SWEET IT IS.

I don’t know how many votes we physically moved, but certainly, I think we helped a little. Maybe a lot in the Voke SC race!

I don’t think there’s anything subliminal about it, Councilor Mercier. People lumped you in with Alan Kazanjian. Period, full stop.
Oddly enough, nobody lumped Jim Milinazzo in with Councilor Corruptjian. Funny how that works.
So sad. Armand was always the best of the GOBs. He was scrupulous in the performance of his duties, and he ran a damn fine meeting when he was mayor.
