"I am unwilling to share them (the cost of his own proposals) with you for the sole purpose of you to judge"- Richard Corrente

Well if that doesn't say ALOT about the candidate I don't know what else will. This is what we are dealing with, a candidate who speaks in sound bites with no substance.

Rick, the truth is you don't have the numbers. You can call it a "moving target", you can try to discredit my very valid points. The bottom line is if you don't know the COST of what you're planning, you have no idea whether or not you can CUT TAXES!!! That is the truth and for you to hide behind these silly, weak excuses is baffling.

You talk about the liabilities under the mayor...so your solution is to spend more money and give more away??? Seniors and veterans are some of our most deserving taxpayers...can we afford to pay 50% of their car taxes??? There are plenty of people who love our veterans and seniors who don't think we can. It doesn't mean they care less than you, it doesn't make you a better person, it means that you are making false promises you know you can't keep for the sake of getting elected.

When you first ran I gave you credit on here for starting early, and putting your name out there. I told you what i agreed with and didn't agree with... funny I don't remember you saying I was "attacking/judging" you then. You have been running for 2 years and yet there is ZERO specifics on some of these proposals. That is unacceptable!!!!!! You can claim you have the answers and that "you aren't telling" like a petulant child, but the voters see right through it.

I also asked if you had talked to any of the union leadership about your hiring freeze/reduced salary plans. I didn't ask if you "knew the players"...I specifically asked whether or not you've discussed this with them? My guess is that means you haven't...

CrickeeRaven thank you again for your comment. It's crazy to me that this candidate would rather try to discredit me and you, rather than give any type of credit to his own proposals. Any time he's (Rick) asked a tough question he blames the questioner, attacks the mayor or attacks the question itself. It is obvious that the math hasn't been done. Yesterday they were "loaded" questions, today he has the answers but refuses to share. Tomorrow it will be that the dog ate his numbers on him.

My point is legitimate...if you don't know the cost of YOUR plans you can't even begin to say you will cut taxes. You don't even know what type of spending you would have to cut to make that happen. Stop with the disingenuous rhetoric Rick... instead of "cut taxes, cut spending" do us all a favor and "cut the BS".
