I agree that the WFP most likely will not be good for Hartford
----------------------------------
I agree.
By the way, who is in charge at the WFP Town Committee?

Peter,

There isn't one. They are run by Jon Green who is their "Executive Director" for the organization, but they do not conform to the same required structure for Dem's and GOP town committees

You Peter and McGarry live in a fantasy made up paralel universe where black is white,good is evil,right is wrong and the WFP are dangerous...

Calling the WFP dangerous or that they will be bad and overspend for Hartford belies the facts when Dr Deutsch and Cotto voted no on the raise and the rest voted yes.

It is outmoded thinking that is bringing Hartford down.

So sayeth Kevin B., Mitzi.

If I understand it, the esteemed electorate of our fair town can't vote for Republican candidates because of putative mismanagement by the party apparatus. On the other hand, it votes for the WFP which doesn't even have an apparatus.

The fact is that the WFP is a leftie outfit that is attractive to our leftie electorate. Kevin prefers to blame the chair of the Republican Town Committee for the mistakes of the voters. On the other hand, anonymous 6:58 thinks credits the electorate for having the wisdom to install fiscally conservative council guys. I hope his in-moded analysis is correct.

Peter, I believe it is more productive to assess folks on the basis of what they do rather then what they say.

Taking into account the above it is fair to say that the "leftie group" in Hartford is the Republican Party.It is a fact that the Republican Party and their leadership were at the forefront of every tax and spending increase the past 10 years.And it is a fact that the prior Republican Councilperson voted for every tax and spending increase,just as the subsequent Republican Councilperson ( Corey Brinson)did.

The WFP did not vote for every tax and spending increase nor did every WFPer vote for the recent raise.

Therefore if you go by what they DO rather then what they say,it is the Republican Party that are the big tax and spend Socialists and not the WFP.

----------------------------------
In that case, it would seem that you and the rest of the leftie electors have been making a gross error for the past five or six decades. I'd really appreciate it if we could better inform them so that next time we may get a Republican controlled City Hall for the first time in Luis Cotto's entire lifetime; really spend some bucks, think of new inequalities to eliminate, hire a host of unionized hacks, rein in the cops, and in general make Hartford as socially just as Detroit, Newark, or the District of Columbia. All towns, by the way, where the leftie electorates have also mistaken the Republicans for a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

And, let me guess... crime here in New England's Rising Star is due to suburban kids coming in to buy drugs.

I agree with you, leftism not good for the town. And, we've had it at least since I've been here (1984). WFP Democrats only most virulent strain. (Although, the Green Dems like Ms. Sheff compare.) Democrats have controlled municipal governments in virtually every large American town/city for decades. I don't blame their local policies for conditions in Hartford or Newark, but if we hired them to improve things I'd say we should get our money back.
