It is a very sad thing for me to witness;
two Democrats on the dais at the most recent caucus meeting of the
Dover Township Committee unable to command any respect from the rest
of the Committee, even though they are reached out to with warmth..
The bitterness abounding on that dais is a terrible thing to witness.
Rich Larsen was reduced to a manic, twitching shell of the man he was
when he was campaigning. John Furey is now a parrot of Rich Larsen,
who is clearly talking the Party Line. Dr. Furey should not be a
candidate for Mayor in an election as hotly contended as this one is
going to be.
Neither one of them have a bit of skill with parliamentary procedure,
so the two lawyers, Russo, and Fiure, along with the veteran
Republican Carmine Inteso, run circles around them. It is so unfair,
their handicap, that the Democrats seem unfairly matched. You can
actually tell the others feel sorry for them.
The only intelligible things presented by the "pro-active" duo are
presented by Larsen. He tries to count beans, but without a clear plan
of the needs of the 7th largest township in the state, his whole
argument is empty.
He offers 9 million against the Russo bond for 14 million. Larsen
argues that the town is broke. Russo argues that the town is not broke
yet. Neither one of them really know the exact and specific state of
the municipal economy, but they argue and belittle each other, until
the Larsen idea is adopted, when it is no better conceived than the
Russo bond is.
Larsen is left flip flopping like a fish out of water and most of the
time Dr. Furey is leaning back so you cannot see his head or else
laughing and joking while serious speeches are made by the taxpayers.
Last night, Mayor Russo tried to present a plan that reflected a
request made by Citizens group Leader Angelo DiGiovanni for the
formation of a Transition Team to handle the smooth transference of
government to the new Mayor next year. It seemed like a good idea. But
as Larsen and Furey seem to object to EVERYTHING, the newly shorn Dr.
Furey pipes up a complaint and rambles on and on making absolutely no
concrete sense.
The Republicans and the audience tried to lean in to better understand
what the good Doctor was talking about. No one could make any sense
out of it. Russo was surely sorry he had ever introduced the idea. It
was put off, till a further date, out of sheer frustration.
John Furey is not Mayoral material. He and Larsen are not really good
at this.
Max Puppet has more pizzazz than the both of them. I hate to say this
but the Puppet could do a better job, any day.
