I believe he's making it obvious that he's NOT running.

When does that kickoff? What might that involve?

The day after the last day for filing nomination petitions, and Doherty, not McGoff, has filed his. It'll be a blistering, all-out attack on the relationship between the Times and Chris Doherty over the past 6 years. It's all been neatly filed and catagorized. (this is just another of Joe Pilchesky's false promises ... he is going to go up against the Times ... HA! And from what I have seen so far from Chris Doherty ... well attack away because you are nothing more than a gnat to him ... slightly annoying ... but not worth giving much thought! That's reality ... how many campaigns have you been through now? How often have you crawled under his skin?)

I can understand the Times getting behind their political Golden boy, but the Times has repeatedly, by omission, by spin, by misdirection and by manipulation lied toand betrayed the residents of the area, much to our harm.(I would dearly love to know what harm has been brought to you by the Times?... hey how did you fare with the Scranton Post? And is the Times/Leader everything you hoped it would be? Have they cracked the case on corruption in the City of Scranton ... have they uncovered the huge cover up of said corruption by the Scranton Times? I didn't think so ... )

We're only talking $2,000.00 per edition for an assripping expose`of that relationship every two weeks until the election.(Ok so here is the first of your false promises ... you are going to put out $2,000per week out of your pocket to expose the relationship between the mayorand the times ...you should seek out help now)That should amount to about 6 issues, or a measly $12,000.Not a problem at all. (Who is financing this endeavor of yours??? Where do you ... or who do you get your money from to be able to afford in these hard economic time to throw away $12,000)In addition, there will be non-stop informacials on radio and tv. Like I said, historyawaits the players. I'll be there. (Oh I get it ... it's kind of like when you promised to go to the podium to serve Judy with ... let me see 6 subpoenas for6 consecutive weeks ... you have a thing for the number 6 don't you?And I'm guessing that it will take more than $12,000 to run "infomercials non stop for 6 weeks ... just a thought)I'll truely be disappointed if the mayor is a no-show.I know Gatelli will be there, but our lineup of council speakers will methodically put her re-elections hope well out of reach.

Charles and Piccolino better stay on the bench.There won't be a shortage of clips, late hits, illegal blocks, roughing the passer, tripping, personal foulsand unsportsmanlike conduct.(Sounds like a threat to me ... hmmmm ... or do we all think that heis "politically speaking"?

Thanks for asking. Nothing will be sacred in 09. NOTHING.
