Why the Bernardo Endorsement Ends The Executive Race of 2011

Mike Hein has about a 99% chance of being reelected right now, we'll have a full recap of the Hein/Bernardo race of 2008 and why this county wide race is pretty much over...


 All eyes on Sennett v. Carnright..a tight race that could end up with a Democrat holding that seat but Holly will not go lightly..

Unfortunately, Bernardo feels that he has to "balance" his endorsements. And sadly, Bernardo and Tantillo make their endorsements and speak on behalf of the entire county's Independent party. There is no input from anyone else, nor will they for the DA or legislative races. So, Holley will get the Ind line, and so will 12 republican legislators (one more than half - both of them are republicans at heart). Bernardo likes to go "50/50". That's his way of showing "independence". If I was enrolled in the Independent Party, I'd vote the opposite of what was on that line. Is Bernardo going to send a questionnaire to and interview Holley and Jon? Is there a nominating/endorsement committee? When is the Independent Party convention? There is no committee...it's a committee of two: Fawn and Len. What a sham...

There is no way Holley will lose to Sennett. Most of the Dems dont even like Senett aka Mr. Pompous.

4:50: Most of the Dems don't even know Sennett - few people personally know their elected officials. If Sennett seems pompous, then it's because he's knowledgeable. Holley is a terrible DA. There have been violent crimes along with white collar crimes that have not been prosecuted under his tenure. Asset forfeiture is virtually non-existent, indirectly driving taxes up by not offsetting expenses. Holley has got to go - I'll take pompous over incompetent.

I can only echo what 7:26 said. Sennett's the guy. Should be a good race though.
