Birds of a Feather Flock Together

It's true. Have you humans ever noticed how "good guys" gravitate toward "good guys" and "meanies" gravitates toward "meanies"?

Its an interesting observation of how you humans interact.

Bongo brings this up today because a story completely unrelated to District 158 (or maybe not) caught my eye this morning in the Northwest Herald. It appears that Linda Moore is running against incumbent John Rossi for Grafton Township Supervisor.

That election is Tuesday, February 24th by the way.

Now correct Bongo if he's wrong, but wasn't Rossi in control at Grafton Township when we all started seeing the Grafton Township bus around town providing transportation for senior citizens? Wasn't Rossi in control when the Grafton Food Pantry became really successful? So why would Moore go after the seat of a guy who is clearly doing a good job for the people of Grafton Township?

Because birds of a feather flock together. Whereas Snow has a foot in the door at D 158, Moore, who wasn't able to get her foot in the door at D 158 two years ago, is trying to get a foot in the door at the township. And guess what kind of campaigning Moore is doing against Rossi?

You got it. Negative campaigning that takes partial truths and spins them negatively. Sound familiar? It should. She learned the tactic from the master of negative campaigning... Larry Snow.

Here's a link to the article.

Bongo loved Rossi's quote at the end of the article:

“She’s involved in Jerry Springer politics, and I think that’s sad.”

Buried further back in the local section is Amber Krosel's catch up article on the Snow car accident story that broke in the Daily Herald yesterday. That story doesn't appear to be available on line, but Snow is quoted as saying, "It's going to be difficult to do any communicating or campaigning. Only with the help of a lot of people would I be able to get my message out."

Funny, Bongo thought he said he broke his pelvis, not his hands. Bongo has no doubt that Snow is burning up the keys on his computer, working on his next manifesto which will be mailed to his peeps in Sun City.

But something struck Bongo as very strange in the article. Check out this quote, from Algonquin Police Deputy Chief Steve Kuzynowski (I wonder if he ever considered changing his name to "Kuzyso"...)

"..,.Snow was taken to Centegra Hospital-Woodstock with what appeared to be minor injuries."

Hmmm.
