You need to vote for David McKillop. David gets a B grade for last night's city and ward speech. They gave him a bad microphone but it is what it is. He also was reading from his script like former council candidate *Mario Martin...remember Mario unable to read his own words..."Four...Score...and...sev...sev...seven...years...a...a..GO..." At least Mr. McKillop read them properly but it was ...awkward.
After a fire and brimstone speech some resident gave on Sept. 19th one would think that David might get an idea of the URGENCY, but as Councilor Marks said to me "that's his way." (paraphrased.) Kind of like Captain Kirk making excuses for Mr. Spock in The City On The Edge of Forever. And isn't that where we are, Medford, on the edge of forever? Not looking bright for this city these days...

*No disrespect meant to Mario, but - man - with all his blabbing (3 hours on the phone with me one night telling me that he would crush Adam Knight and Mario's campaign manager was out of town during the election cycle...hrrummppph! My response was: "Mario, 3 hours with me on the phone when you should be campaigning..." but I digress.

Mrs. Burke gets a D grade. Both passing grades. The lies falling out of her mouth like a bad batch of M & M candy so obvious that I had to walk out,. Lo and behold there was Adam Knight glad-handing in the lobby, missing his lord and master's speech. Too funy. Only in Medford.

But enough about the quasi "gift" from the city and ward committee. Medford learned little or nothing and for my old pal Paul Donato to be strutting his stuff with these bread crumbs to the community, it flies in the face of Rep Donato's righteous indignation over TV3's Art Deluca censoring him all those years ago. Note to Rep Donato: This dog and pony show amounts to the same thing.

SCARY PUMPKIN MOMENT
It took real courage to go to the event last night. Bob Maiocco being on the cemetery commission instead of the city council is truly playing the part, he's looking more like Reverend Kane from Poltergeist every day that he is part of the graveyard board. It is kind of amusing to see the once full-of-himself city councilor with his only standing in the community now is at the back of the auditorium with his nephew-by-marriage propping the feeble old fool up...
