Here he goes again. It seems that a candidate defeated in 2011 keeps voicing his comments in The Day's letters section because he cannot get over the fact that he only received 633 votes from the taxpayers in the East Lyme election for first selectman.
For his ever disparaging remarks against First Selectman Paul Formica, and if he actually and finally told the truth about his loss, the readers of The Day will then have to know he himself did not live full-time in town. His job took him to another area on a weekly basis.
With that issue alone, and to paraphrase his argument, how come he did not list his many out-of-town events during his normal business hours for the 2nd district on behalf of his personal campaign, and not on behalf of the East Lyme taxpayers? Not so easy looking into the mirror to see your own mistakes now is it?
You have my vote, Mr. Formica.
