Neptune: “I read your blogs often and feel that when attacks are unwarranted they should be defended. And for all the support you throw to Mr.Edinger, it sure seems you like to throw people under the bus!”

DFO: I suspect that what you consider “throwing people under the bus” is any criticism of individuals that you consider untouchable. Indeed, Ron Edinger has given long, good service to this community. But, I suspect that the mayor and all the rest of the council believes he’s thrown them under the bus with his grandstanding, dug-in position on McEuen Field. His decision to repeatedly introduce a motion for a public vote on McEuen Field, after the council decisively has said no to that, is no more than pandering to the crowd that’s fighting changes. Some could see that as extremely disrespectful to those he’s served with for years. I don’t mind a dissenting position. But I would expect more than a do-nothing approach to this important issue.

Question: Will Ron Edinger's dug-in stand on McEuen Field help/hurt him at the polls?
