I am appalled and sickened by the negative, onerous, rude, mean-spirited campaign in the mayor's race. The sign issues at the entrance to our subdivision I would compare to cantankerous kinder-garden children removing signs, moving signs, stealing signs... outrageous behavior by local zealots. Who stirred up these folks that they would behave in such a degrading manner? For way too long the campaign has been petty, nasty and crazed. It is my wish that now that the election is over the newly elected can resolve to put aside all the slurs, insults and lies and find a way to work together. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and folks believe what they will, but this election has left me with a really bad taste for Safety Harbor politics. This is local politics at its very worst, decadent, obnoxious and downright dangerous - very similar but even worse than our House of Representatives.
