Even my primary defeat won't deter me

What comes next, is what the people who live in this community should be asking.
The put-together council and mayor that Kate Lacey has thrown to the public will not work. With Mike Quill, as the new mayor, and the new councilperson, things are going to be worse than they are now. (Thomas) McNabb, has been in politics and on city council for years, as he stated, but no one sees the point, what has been accomplished by him? I'm not trying to bad mouth McNabb or anyone else, that was voted in, I'm saying it won't work.

I'm writing this because you must be a thinker and a worker, and without a vision or visions of what you want to bring to the community or life, you can't do anything.

It's like having a car and two tires go flat, without another tire to put on, you try to use two donuts (smaller tires). Once you put them on the car is not balanced equally.

There must be a balance, because if not, the car drops lower than it would normally be. Wake up, something has to change in city hall and I don't believe it will. Just because there are people you liked better in city hall, the question is this, are the best people to do the job in? We don't need people in that will go along with anything, because of the ones that cry we should do this or that.

I am still for the people in this city, my concerns are still the same, and I will still fight against the wrongs and injustices. Every great man and woman who changed this world for the better had a vision to bring their great works about.

My visions will only come about through me, because only I have been given them.

The seat that I ran for is still mine, and I say this in all truth and confidence. I will continue to write and fight against the wrongs that are put on the people in this city.

" Cherry I have a question for you... say a white person has a flat tire in front of the BTW Center (you know, the place we need more of) @ 1:00 a.m on Saturday morning, do you think they would have any trouble getting help?? I say start at the ground level and make improvements in your own community before you decide to solve the world problems... "

" Seriously, where do you get off with this childish rhetoric? If you are the "chosen one," then theres one more reason Im thankful I dont live in Auburn anymore! My problem is I still care what goes on there! "

" I failed to hear any of those visions. Did you have any specific visions or are they in your head for only you to know. Promising to work hard is not good enough. You can work hard spinning those wheels. "

" Cherry who writes this garble for you, man you seriously need a new hobby, perhaps one that does not include your hypocrisy! And what or shall we say who made you their "chosen" one for the visions that only you have been given? Do you have any clue how that sounds? WOW & WOW "
