We simply said that we would vote for almost ANY non-Espada candidate, even if said candidate was a delicious pork product nestled in between two pieces of bread.<br /><br />Unless another candidate presents her/himself, Ms. Pilgrim Hunter has our vote, despite the fact that the ole BD is generally unhappy with the outcome of the Armory. (I don't want to open up another torrent of heated comments, but there's really no plan for the future of the place. No jobs, no schools [the building has been deemed unsuitable for schools, which many people seem to forget for some reason], etc. Ruben Diaz fleetingly mentioned something about GREEN jobs, but with no teeth, vision, or substance. When called for comment about what the details of the green job plan were, the BD never received a call back from the Beep's office.)<br /><br />I can say I want a unicorn farm on the site of the Armory, but that doesn't mean one will magically appear, fully financed as stocked with young unicorns to train.Boogiedownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013028900628543820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2149362212571632662.post-29201513351394302192010-02-09T14:27:09.179-05:002010-02-09T14:27:09.179-05:00I agree with Jack, I actually live in the area whe...I agree with Jack, I actually live in the area where Espada "resides". I think it would be great if people from his "community" went against their "neighbhor" and supported the challenger in the media.BronxBombernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2149362212571632662.post-63834362146309691272010-02-09T13:29:16.811-05:002010-02-09T13:29:16.811-05:00I think you will find that Ms. Pilgrim-Hunter is m...I think you will find that Ms. Pilgrim-Hunter is much more than a "ham sandwich". You certainly have your honest disagreements with her over the armory, but her campaign is not a one issue campaign, and she is not a one issue candidate. Just that word -- "honest" -- is significant. Once we have elected Ms. Pilgrim-Hunter to the 33rd Senate District, we constituents will finally have a representative with whom we can have HONEST disagreement. Won't that be refreshing! The BxNN article really lays out quite an impressive candidate -- and it is only the tip of the iceberg. This "ham sandwich" is a Bronx original, with all the works and is well worth voting for!Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17544110001798264698noreply@blogger.com
