Good! Now if Ms. Hawks and the rest of her cult will move out of the county it will even be better

Has Nelson Peters commented at all on this?

Wow, I'm really not sure what to think about this.

The party is fractured and this is clearly a sign that McGauley isn't the only one to question the party's support for Kelty.

Some will say that this is the beginning of the end for the "good old boys" club, which is a promising prospet. But when you look at the new regime (Kelty and Co.), I think we're trading one batch of bad apples for another.

A bunch of self appointed slef serving and self promoting people are divided. Gosh it took longer to happen the I thought.

But they are 3-0 in wins. They arranged for Joe S. to be beat because he did not march to their desires. They arranged for Marla I to be defeated because she was a free thinker who did not march to their wishes. Now they have DESTROYED Matt K.

I can not wait until I get my chance to serve. Oh, that is right they are self appointed!

I hope you never serve on anything. You have the worst grammer in the history of the English language.

Didn't understand your comment about Joe S. Marla lost because she's not liked. And Kelty destroyed himself.

Poor Matt. Quit picking on him.

Grammer errors could be on purpose... You will never know..

I did not know to hold office one had to be liked by political hacks.

If Kelty's two loans had been provided by a bank would any of this be happening?

Not if he reported them truthfully

From the Newschannel 15 interview:

Mark: Have you thought about what would happen if you lost, got convicted, and went behind bars...have you allowed yourself to think about that?

Matt: C'mon, um, I can't believe you would ask me that. The truth is, of course not, it's not a practical reality for me.


Ok, so I can see where this guy would want to be confident about his innocence, but he is absolutely convinced that he will win the election in November?

That's just downright disrepectful to the voters of this city...and I will say that for any candidate who is that cocky!

To bad you don't know Matt. I would stand up any place and say he is one of the most honest and God fearing people on the earth.

Then again to stand up and say that would have the SELF APPOINTED, SELF SERVING, NON ELECTED group AKA the Exec. Comm. would make my life a living hell.

Anon 4:25,

Whether or not I know Matt is not the issue. I was referring specifically to his statement about his certainty that he will win in the fall. Nobody every knows if they are going to win, and to say that they are is just plain arrogant. He can be confident in his message, and confident in his campaign, but until all of the voters are cast on November 6th, he shouldn't discard the fact that VOTERS decide the election.

You say that you would stand up and support Matt, yet you won't even go to the trouble of creating a user name that distiguishes you from all of the other anonymous posters. Now that's dedication, let me tell ya!

If you're so big on being identified, why don't you have your real name on your profile? No real name is the same as anon.

Did you guys see how Matt Kelty stumbled on his television interview when he was asked "from one Christian to another" whether he knew the funding sources of the poll ? I've never seen such a nervous response in my life.

Independent Voter said...

AWB, so nice of you to join the discussion! Welcome to a blog where all points of view are allowed to be expressed.

My real name is of no importance.
The fact that I created a user name means that people can direct their comments to me, as opposed to "Anonymous".

Kelty knew exactly what he was doing when he 'fibbed' about the loans. He also knew who paid for the Zogby poll. For a professed 'christian' man, he sure does lie a lot! One thing Kelty is good at is brainwashing people who [evidently] cannot think for themselves. I actually feel sorry for those people, well, most of them anyway. Just too many lies and inconsistencies.

I'm glad to hear that Cathy Hawks is voting for Henry. I'm republican, and I will be voting for him too. I feel it's necessary to jump party lines on the mayoral race this year, as it would be the best thing for Fort Wayne. We can't afford to have a mayor who cannot be straightforward with the community he's overseeing.

Angry White Boy:
Why do you feel it's necessary for people to post their names? What does it matter??????

Anonymous said...

It is hard to overstate the stupidity of AWB for berating posters for not using their "real name". 'Angry White Boy' is on your birth certificate I suppose?? You aren't invited to my home for dinner, you are just reading what I chose to write in a blog. A "real name" Angry White Boy? What is that in this anon E-world?? I can say whatever I want is my 'real name' and you would be happy. Okay..I will sign with my 'real name'...Joe Smith, no wait Joe Montana..yes that's it. Don't you get how this whole blogging thing works? You have no idea who ANYONE here is--no matter HOW they sign their posts. No wonder you are so angry--you're an idiot.
FWT
I mean--"Joe"

Nice try, Dan.

Tom Henry is a good man. Support him if you wish, but Mr. Kelty has been pre-ordained by God to win this election. Whether or not he gets to keep his seat is regrettably up to man and not God.

If Kelty loses this election, Steve Shine is done.

So if we sacrifice Kelty we can also get rid of shine. hmmmm

Anonymous said...

What makes you think Shine is done. It takes a vote to toss him and if last night was any indication Shine still has the support of the foot soldiers of the party.

Anonymous said...

Hmmmm, so the Precinct Committee can eliminate Shine, and Shine can appoint someone to replace Kelty if he is elected and then found guilty.

Gee, I wonder why Shine eliminated the Executive Committee.

If people think that the party is heading in a new direction, you're wrong. Ken N. will be replaced with the likes of Fred Rost (in terms of party power). It's sort of like when a company releases something "new and improved!" Same $hit, different box.

Why would anyone support Tom Henry? It would be like voting for Jimmy Carter again. He didn't do anything good for this country while he was in and Tom didn't do anything good when he was in city council.
Look Matt is guilty or innocent.
If he is guilty than there will be a republican caucus to replace him. if He's innocent.. than every ill will person in this room owe him a personal apology.
