Ya just can’t keep Isenberg out of the limelight she so loves!
Have people forgotten some of the reasons why she was voted out of office?

Stainbrook looked very reserved, no fear factor, no person of challenge in the crowd. He appeared very calm, not the same guy I have witnessed in public. Almost like a young child after taking his A.D.D medication. Gaining tax revenue is much more difficult than earnings via court litigation.

After running 3 of his own city council campaigns into the ground and Joe Kidd’s, Jon Stainbrook is due. I like Hans Schnapp’s chances.

Sarantou, Scotland, and 2 others? That will prove to be entertaining if nothing else. If Sarantou runs how is that different from Carty? He has been a yes man for the Mayor for so long there is no difference unless you count personality, Sarantou is probably not quite as confrontational.
Scotland? Surely you jest. The man who doesn’t pay his taxes? Remember Tom Daschle. Not to mention the paperwork/filing snafu that will surely haunt him until the stain is gone.
With Hans Schnapp running do we still have hope for Lord Wulfgang? That would be a dynamic duo if we ever saw one! Plus 11 more! This is going to be a truly memorable election season! Is the stain aware that there are only 6 seats open?

(One more thing, I have noticed that if I type too fast when I type “stain” that it sometimes comes out “satin” which I know is a shiny, silky fabric. It makes me think of another word which is spelled similarly if you get my drift.)

It should be pointed out that Jim Moody is listed as owning the home on Hunters Green with his wife on Areis, and that the home on Parkview is listed as being owned by the Greater Metropolitan Title Company. When he was on Tom Watkin’s radio show last week he stated the problem with the perception of Toledo was related to unions.

I think he needs to focus on consistency when it comes to answering some of the same questions, it creates less questions…If Areis is incorrect, that should be addressed since it is very easy to access public information.

I’m not clear on the scenario Moody referenced as to 30 mortgage underwriters leaving Toledo creating a loss of 30 million dollars and dashed dreams by homeowners, perhaps someone will provide some insight into what legislation he was referring to that created this.

I enjoyed seeing Sandy Isenberg back on the program, it was almost like the old days but I don’t think Jon Stainbrook did as well as challenging her as Jim Tankersley used to. I was surprised to learn that Jan Scotland is still considering a Mayoral run and if I heard the number correctly that he has 12 people interested in running for City Council? Things could get interesting, at this point I’ve only heard one confirmed and one possible.

Wade’s point about deficits don’t always mean there was too much spending was a valid one, it’s one that is not pointed out often. It’s not always true, but at times it is.

Sounds like a name of a law firm. I will let others expound on how functional or dysfunctional said law firm would be…. Looks like they collectively have some experience filing lawsuits and chasing the proverbial ambulance.
