More plastic and more prevarication on his commitment to ("GREEN") Guelph. Until Mike and his ilk devise a coherent left of center (or centrist) platform he can plaster the city with plastic and still get nowhere. Just visiting. Just vacuous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476825681109011814.post-28706981884105154122014-06-18T23:20:57.522-04:002014-06-18T23:20:57.522-04:00Good election analysis Adam.

(Elsewhere) he claims he won the "sign war". Who knew there was a sign war? Has more plastic ever won an election in Guelph? Has waving plastic at motorists ever won anything in Guelph? Did he ever consider that more plastic was actually an anathema to his stated "green" campaign. Actually I found it sickening and excessive. Actually it was quite pathetic that all he could do when his platform was going nowhere was to flood out more plastic. AND he sucked in resources from other campaigns to put up more (useless) plastic.<br />All this pales in comparison to his claims of "honesty and integrity" when in reality he never leveled with the city about his Guelph roots and where he actually lived. His 10 year old Guelph business story was bogus and history. OH. He claims walking 250 polls. What did other candidates do? Walking is one thing. Connecting with voters and converting them with facts is another. Hollows claims. More miles walking and more signs produced 3rd place. perhaps the message is wrong for Guelph and that should be his take-away rather than blaming those with a more convincing platform and message. Guelph voters were perceptive and quite rightly rejected a specious campaign and flawed candidate whose only ambitions were self aggrandizement and media profile Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
