Interesting that the Sunday News would run a front-page above-the-fold fluff piece in support of Charlie Smithgall ON THE SAME DAY as the deadline for running political letters. It seems a bit too convenient that NO ONE will have a chance to respond.
Perhaps the publisher still owes Smithgall a few favors?
And what exactly would be wrong with having at least one Republican on the City Council??? That’s really what you are objecting to, isn’t it???
