Markowitz Fails You Can Quote Me

I didn't hear it all. I just caught the part where she was bragging about killing nine jobs in archive micro-filming in favor of electronic only record keeping. This reminded me her response to my concerns about the evils of paperless voting in which she cited its "efficiencies." That was a red flag.

She seems a lot like Hinda and Hillary. A lot. She bragged about her Emily's list endorsement and her long list of donors. Her statewide victories as SOS. It seems like an 'inevitability' strategy. And "inevitability" is by definition presumptuous.

I liked Shumlin's appearance on You Can Quote Me better. He said Vermont could "get a piece" of the new economy of environmental manufacturing. That sounded good.

  1. Just think of this. Paperless voting with an IRV system.
    Wow.

  2. I heard that Florida lent Afghanistan all of their Diebold voting machines for the election a while back, but had to cancel when somehow George Bush won their election.

  3. Shumlin IS a better speaker, a better candidate and will make a better governor. He offers realistic ideas and has a clear understanding of the important issues facing the state like education, energy, the economic/job picture and government overhaul.

    I mean, I like Deb, but I don't know where she stands really. I know it says things on her website but I want some concrete policy proposals. She's almost as bad as Dunne is. Get some policy proposals in there and then I'll give her another look but right now...I'm settled on Shumlin.
