  1. That $600 you promised us eight years ago would really be nice in our pockets, Bill. Any idea when we might expect the checks? What’s that? You had the checks ready to be mailed, but Joe Ganim hid the stamps and you couldn’t send them?

    1. This video is awful. I can’t imagine anyone watching it and thinking this is Mayor Finch’s Bridgeport. Mayor Finch needs to come out with an amazing positive video touting every project and accomplishment. That is what will win the election.

  2. On the other hand, Finch or Foster could come out with a video focusing on the trial and negative press for the city and lack of development during the most prosperous times. Yes I think Finch needs more than one and I would like them produced and shown on every cable station every 20 minutes for a few days.

    1. Blah-blah-blah. Earlier I pointed out you only post here to annoy and offend others. You haven’t denied that. Au contraire, you have proved it time and again.

      Do us all a favor. Sell your house and move to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Great place for a smug, self-important and arrogant bigot like yourself.

  3. Producing and airing a 30-second video costs a lot of money, Steve. If the Finch campaign still has that much jing in the piggy bank, they’d have produced a video to connect Ganim to the KKK instead of a cheap, sleazy postcard.

    Tax Bill has failed the city. There are well-connected national figures joining the effort to prevent his re-election and stop Ganim’s bid for political redemption. Neither of them will be collecting a paycheck from the city of Bridgeport.

  4. Who’s failing whom?

    I ain’t afraid of no ghost, especially if the rumor mill is full of stories concerning Mayor Finch’s victory and the ghost’s involvement.

      1. Steve–are you at all uncomfortable with the knowledge your pal Finch failed to hold down a job in the private sector for 20 years? Doesn’t that speak to his competence? Bpt deserves better.

        1. Yeah Steve, Ganim made my license plate. What did Finch do? Excluding develop Steel Point, build repair schools, open a solar plant, develop a fuel cell plant, build affordable housing, reopen Pleasure Beach. So what has Finch done?

        2. Not uncomfortable at all. I think with all the economic development happening in the city, the argument of Finch’s experience in the private sector is a tired argument, as tired as the $600 rebate. What does concern me is we have a mayor who is respected in Hartford and Washington. There are many development projects in the works, why would anyone change captains at such a critical time in Bridgeport’s rebirth? The last time the US was going through prosperous times, Ganim all but destroyed the city. Foster has no government experience. She has many accomplishments but we have a mayor who has gotten the ball rolling. The people she has surrounded herself with are anti-economic development and I would be extremely reluctant to change course. The work history of Bil .Finch is an old argument. He is a public servant. If all his flaws have brought the city to this point, then I say it was meant to be. It is not just the economic development projects. Bill Finch is ahead of the curve on environmental issues and green technology and green jobs. Do you really think anyone is interested in his work history? Foster has proven herself as an entrepreneur, social activist, fundraiser, lawyer and actress. She has done a wonderful job at UB.

          I think Bill Finch has done an incredible job taking the baton from John Fabrizi and cleaning up the mess Ganim left us.

          If Foster is going to run the city as she did her campaign, I wouldn’t concern myself with the work history of Bill Finch. If you read the Alchemist, you would believe all his trials and tribulations have led him to this moment where Bridgeport is on the verge of great things. That of course is my opinion and I am not in the mood for a barrage of attacks because I believe Mayor Finch is the only choice. Come Back Bridgeport–Dolphin’s Cove. 😉
