Mayor Solomon looks prepared to lead and has proven that he can do so as Mayor. Sue Stenhouse clearly does not understand the nuances of the problems facing the city. This is why she voted against the ordinance to notify the city council of any side deals in union contracts.

Stenhouse is looking across the table wondering which of the three panelists would best pass in a dress.....

I just watched the whole thing. Stenhouse is wholly unprepared, she cant even get her grammar correct at times. Solomon did well, especially when pressed on controversial issues, Solomon showed strength of knowledge and that he can lead.
I did NOT like Stenhouse saying "I take exception" to Solomon's COMPLIMENT that she did the best she could on an issue, and I did NOT like her calling him "acting mayor" There is NO acting mayor in Warwick. That's basic civics and if she did not get that, she should not BE mayor.
If she DID get the difference, and used the incorrect term anyway, that just shows that her cross-dressing fiasco in Cranston was no accident. She is deceptive and unprepared. She should stay at the mini golf.
