Report Inappropriate Comments

And this is why Avedesian is repeatedly re-elected (that, and the Democrats never put up any meaningful opponents). The "debate" Hepdog is having quickly devolved into a low-impact argument loaded with meaningless comments. I really can't tell if Steve D. or Hemi_Royed (whose name alone lets you know where this was going) favor or oppose Avedesian, since their comments quickly turned into a volley of personal jabs instead of fact-supported comments.

Now, should we re-elect Avedesian? Let's put it this way - my councilwoman, in the midst of a heated Democrat primary, mailed letters to her constituents (in envelops that looked a little too "official" for a low-budget source) urging us to vote in the Republican primary for Avedesian. Does this smack of backroom collusion and tugs on those puppet strings Rob Cote brought into public consciousness? In a less-suspect circumstance, if she were to urge her constituents to vote in the Republican primary, it would have been for Stacia Petri, and not Avedesian, with the idea that knocking a well-entrenched incumbent out in 2014 makes it much more likely that, either this year or 2016, her party could win back City Hall. Instead, she has help[ed the mayor extend his already-disastrous incumbency.
