Political notes from Free Press staff writers Terri Hallenbeck, Sam Hemingway and Nancy Remsen

Could it be?

Could it be that Democrats will have two candidates running for lieutenant governor come July 21 -- after the rollercoaster ride of recent months? That would mean a PRIMARY.

We know Nate Freeman of Northfield is in. He's the guy who runs an upholstery business and is a single parent to two young daughters. He said he watched from the political sidelines this year until he could watch no more. You might see him at some public events this weekend.

Tom Costello, Brattleboro lawyer and former legislator, is just days away from deciding. He said his law office is OK with his running and his family has given him the nod, too. Now he has to decide whether this is the right time and the right office.

Progressives don't expect anyone to take the plunge -- although Morgan Daybell said there have been conversations.

Brian Dubie, the three-term Republican incumbent, is the guy that Freeman/Costello? will face come November.

Stay tuned. (Shouldn't there be an updated version of this expression for blogs. Tuning, of course, refers to radio. Stay online? Stay connected?)

Fruits vs. Nuts in a primary don't result in viable candidates. Nice try though.
 
I know Tom in Brattleboro.

I'm a Dem and I won't vote for him. What's funny is that the post goes as follows:

His law office is OK with him running.
FACT: He's the only one in the law office besides his secretary. He actually lives above his office.

Tom would make a horrible Lieutenant Governor for the simple fact that he is unstable. Spend 10 minuets with him and you'll see what I mean.

"Spend 10 minuets with him and you'll see what I mean."

Ten "minuets", eh? I don't wanna dance with the guy, pal, I just wanna know why he's "unstable" compared to brainless brian dubie.
 
He's unstable (i.e. the wheels are there but they're not turning).
 
Well, that certainly sheds light on the subject and clears things up.

Thanks, pal.
 
Hey coop-shit: why don't you run? Oh - that's right, you probably already are in the legislature!
 
Pollina for Governor!!!!!!!!!!!!

In other words, you're still dumb, you're still scum and your ignorant anonymous ass has still got bupkis.

Thanks for clearin' that up, little fella.

While your nameless-nitwit nonsense credentials are clearly impeccable, unfortunately, we have nothing for your ignorant anonymous ass at this time. We will, however, keep your ignorant-trash with bupkis resume on file and contact you should things change.

Always a pleasure.
Dismissed.
 
** SAM HEMINGWAY **

When will we see the retraction for your post "Anthony's Ag-ony"

NOFA Director Enid Wonnacott said, "For Sam to say that we’re attacking Anthony is simply wrong. I don’t have a beef with Anthony,”

Sam was WRONG.

Where is the retraction?

Man up Sam. Print the retraction.
 
Cmon Coop. Show what you have and run ...or can't you get your boss at the Ben and Jerry's store to be okay with it.
 
You guys are so angry with one another. Christ.
