I am voting for Frumin. He has broader and deeper experience in DCPS, Affordable Housing and is supported by a lot of people who have worked with him in a variety of volunteer activities that show his long standing commitment to the Ward - the Washington Interfaith Network and Tenleytown Main Street to name two. |

I’m not voting for him, but Frumin is a fine choice.
I feel badly for Frumin. He likely would be the front runner if not for Goulet getting all the outside dark money help. The poll was not just about who was leading the race. It was also message testing. Goulet built his entire outreach around the issues that reportedly tested the best in the poll. If he didn’t have that illegal information, this would be a very different race. |
Outside dark money help? Ugh. This local level smear campaign is too much. Please shut up whatever staffer keeps coming on here posting wild accusations. It’s comical how much mud is flying around for the low low level of importance has. We get it you love being involved in politics. But pleeeeease you look so thirsty posting all these racism accusations and dark money nonsense and lies. Have you no dignity? |
I can't say much about the dark money, but his remarks at the Chamber event appalled all of the other candidates and resulted in a rare moment of unity among them. I know it's trendy to dismiss this as faux outrage by woke hipsters or whatever FNC is calling it now, but his remarks - and, more so, his doubling down on them - should be a real problem for anyone who cares an iota about the ward and/or the city. |
Seems that candidates who did not see the GGW endorsement and didn’t even bother to return their questionnaire have gotten lamely smeared on here. That includes Czapary, Mendelson and Goulet. I don’t think GGW is doing this because it’s so childish, but certainly the affiliated crowd is “too online” and seems like pretty typical behavior. Particularly since a lot of these folks seem to have adopted a very messianic political style. |
Take your conspiracy theories to 4chan, buddy. There is nothing "messianic" about Ward 3 residents not wanting their CM to be a guy who responds to a question about how to increase diversity by talking about the problems created by voucher recipients which - he notes - are overwhelmingly black. |
I think this is in reference to the numerous Goulet mailers from DFER and the doorhangers/paid canvassers from a different charter school group. |
Just you wait. You ain't read nothing yet. |
messianic (adj.) fervent or passionate Seems accurate. |
Goulet is taking help from DFER which is funded by the Koch Brothers. Facts matter. |
As in there will be an even bigger deluge of mailers? This Ward 3 race is keeping USPS in business! If the Fair Elections program is going to continue as is, I need to quit my job to open a print shop in time for the next election. |
What dictionary are you using? https://www.dictionary.com/browse/messianic |
I think this explains a lot about you. Are you still using AOL or did you not attend college? https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/messianic https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/messianic https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/messianic https://www.britannica.com/dictionary/messianic My favorite definition which I think applies here is: “means relating to the belief that there will be a complete change in the social order in a country or in the world.” The idea that you are out here on defense posting links to dictionary.com because you think you’re being insulted rather than accurately described says a lot about your level of education. Go read a book! |
You respond to a simple question with all that and you accuse others of being defensive? It's also interesting that you think you are in a dialogue. You are not. |
You are too important “to be in dialogue” which is why you respond to say so. This is great. You know what’s even lamer than me? Spending your time concocting spurious anonymous attacks on people you don’t know for the low stakes outcome of winning a city council position for candidates you favor. |
