Vote Anderton

I don’t understand how the average person from the lower eastern shore could vote for Delegate Conway. While the average salary of a person lucky enough to have a job is $24,000 a year in Wicomico County, we’ve shown that the Conways make significantly more than that. And that’s just the pay we know about. We don’t know how much the Conways make on their rentals in Delaware, though we do find it odd that he chooses to have business interests that are not affected by his insane tax and spend policies.

Looking through the opinion pieces of the Daily Times it is obvious that western shore style limousine liberals are the ones attempting to keep Norm in office. From the chairman of his campaign Marty Neat, who is a big banker (how many foreclosures Marty?) to the SU President who is making a quarter of a million dollars a year, which is paid for by our taxes. I’d suggest that Mr. Neat keep an eye on his bank's troubled asset ratio* (see link at bottom) and President Eshbach has bigger fish to fry in trying to keep her students safe.

While Conway’s spokespeople leave a lot to be desired, his own record shows a disastrous term. During the great recession, while even Neat and Eshbach were cutting back on caviar and champagne, Norm Conway was voting to take more money out of your wallet to pay for things you might never use. Like the Montgomery County collector road. Or a putt-putt golf course in Montgomery County. And if he is re-elected he’ll be voting to spend about $7 billion on light rail systems that we will pay for and the people in DC and Baltimore will use.
So while the good people of the eastern shore are suffering. While our families are being put out of work and having our homes taken from us, Norm continues to create state debt and tax all of us more. What a hard-hearted out-of-touch politician Norm must be.

I know, he’s a nice guy. He is. I’ve talked to him and he seems nice. But how in the world do you justify these policies and spending and not see the impact? How long can we vote for a guy and allow him to be called “nice” when he does so much harm to our friends and families?

When you go to the voting booth think about the foreclosures that have not only happened under the watch of Delegate Conway, but he’s had a direct hand in by raising the price to live on the eastern shore. Think about the jobs we used to have. SBYNEWS has been the source to document all of the lost jobs in this area. All of them have happened while Norm Conway was our representative. And now he is still telling everyone that he is “fighting” for jobs. I encourage you to see through the lies of Conway and his followers. They are scared to death that their guy is going to lose. And they should be.

Vote Carl Anderton for Delegate. Vote for jobs. Vote for tax cuts. Vote for less government spending.
