    Talking Why

    The reason I am asking is for the fact I am comsidering a spot on the board next Election. I would even get a Apartment in the Town to do this.

    Gabby would be my choice. He's been where he has been long enough and needs to step down to allow for fresh blood.

    But good luck dislodging him. The senior citizens LOVE the guy,and so do the unions. Cheektowaga is all Dems all the time, which hasn't been healthy for the town.

    Still, some outsiders who ran in the last election did surprisingly well. So maybe someone on the board could be vulnerable....

    Fan,
    If it's not broke , don't fix it ! Who's complaining?

    There are many times when fresh blood is needed,but IMO Gabby is doing a great job. Sure he has been in office for a long time, but he must be doing something right that the Residents re-elect him. Sure the Seniors love him, he works well with the employees and, yes, even the Unions. Does he give the store away? No, he does not, but at least he is approachable & accessable to people. Unlike another Town Supervisor!

    I don't know about that. No one gave Gabby $5,000 in cash!

    Just joking....

    NO ONE can touch Tom Johnson......that guy could talk forever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever..........

    Hey, I'm not saying he is a bad guy at all. Actually, he's pretty progressive. But boy......he can sure talk! But at least he makes sense when he talks, and doesn't go underground (like gabby)when he is in uncomfortable territory.

    I say: Go Tom!!! Just cut the talk a little, OK?

    Isn't ChektowagaFan the same ex-Town worker (ie Union Member) who retired, said he was moving to Colden, then claimed to have bought a beachfront home from which he could "watch the dolphins"?

    And people want him to run for Town Board??

    And we wonder why things are so bad here?
