UPDATE: 5:45 pm Well I guess if you drove thru town center today (as I did a few times) you would assume Blue Bloods, errr, I mean Blue Signs will capture the two coveted Select Board seats--not to mention the lone School Committee seat.
So if anybody is interested--and the 60% of you from outside Amherst probably are not—here’s my prediction for the election:
Greeney first (behold the power of the Red sign) O’Keeffe second, Stein third, Rhodes fourth and the most entertaining candidate Dave Keenan dead last.
Sanderson over Romero (in spite of the cool animatronic Marinette truck and her red, white and blue signage) for School Committee.
Amherst Redevelopment Authority: Peg Roberts and Aaron Hayden.
12:30 pm: Note the difference between unstaged photos A (above), where they had not yet spotted me; and photo B: obviously these folks get all excited when they think the results could get wider exposure.
Now I know why the Powers That Be, establishment coalition chose BLUE for all their candidates’ signs. You don’t get any more blue state than Massachusetts and out of the 351 municipalities you don’t get any bluer than Amherst.
The Chinese got it right: Red rocks!
Well, yeah, when we see somebody we know we're gonna wave!
ReplyDeleteDid you expect us to turn around and moon you or something? (now THAT would have made a great blog post...)
Except this blog is rated PG (well, except for the 'Vagina Monologues' stuff).
ReplyDeleteStephanie did do a little jig down at the Rt 9 intersection but I'm a lousy drive by shooter. All I got was her feet (of fire).
