Cranley criticizes stadium deal

Dear fellow tax hikers, mayoral candidate John Cranley continues his attack on the Bob Bedinghaus Stadium Tax and all the work Roxanne Qualls did to get it passed.  At the recent WCPO debate, Cranley said the following:

My opponent mentions her judgment. In the ‘90s, she was the lead spokesman for the stadium deal.  She added $100 million in costs by moving the stadium to the west.  She built a $50 million riverfront transit center that's never been used," Cranley said.  "I think we need a new investment advisor in the city, and we need someone who has the experience to know the difference between good ideas and bad ideas.

This time Cranley has gone too far.  How dare he criticize the stadium deal!  How dare he criticize Roxanne Qualls The Stadium Queen for being the leading spokesman for the stadium tax!  How dare he criticize moving the stadium west for another $70-$150 million!  How dare he criticize a majestic $50 million transit center just because it's almost never used!

We all know how successful these stadiums have been for our region, and if Cranley wants to continue attacking the work of Bedinghaus/Qualls it will only hurt him in the end.  If you like the stadiums, you're gonna love Mayor Roxanne Qualls.

Roxanne is going to win because she is the real Democrat, defined as the candidate who supports the stadiums, streetcar, and parking plan. Everyone else can vote for Cranley.

Relax R4HT. You can take your foot off the accelerator. Qualls is down double digits in internal polls. The only reason to keep piling on is to further enrage and humiliate Qualls zombies like fatass Craig Hochscheid.

Yes we know Qualls is down and that's why we must work harder than ever to help her. We have to make people understand why the stadiums and streetcar are so good for Cincinnati. Roxanne deserves credit for these projects, not scorn.

Cheer up everyone! We've got 2 weeks to turn this around for Roxanne. If Roxanne wins, that's more streetcars and more stadiums for Cincinnati!

If only the Republican Party would change its views and support homosexual marriage, unlimited taxpayer funding of abortions, gun control, unlimited taxpayer funding of recreation for the masses, and a completely open border with Mexico, we could actually have a candidate in elections like this and then we would win elections too because people who want free stuff from the government would have TWO choices and would obviously then pick us because we're so much kewler than those DemocRATS. If only the Republican Party would eliminate social conservatives, expel the Tea Party and embrace the most militant gay rights and illegal immigration activists around, it would be the dominant political party.

John Cranley is full of lies lies and more lies! This BON vivant has had enough of his trash talk about Vice Mayor Qualls!

As soon as my Audi 5000 is back from the shop, yes another $500 repair!, I will go down and confront little Johnny myself and set the record straight!

After all, us BON vivanters have to stick together!

In my opinion, the stadium deals have been fantastic. For me. For you. For everyone. Yeah that's right, everyone has benefited from these stadiums, lol.

In less than two weeks, I will become a Colerain Township trustee! Can you believe it? Be sure to check out my best TV appearance ever. I would never use tax dollars to build a stadium when we have starving kids in Colerain Township. Feeding the starving kids in Colerain Township comes first, right after funding is restored for my summer park program.

It's funny no one ever calls me out for saying wingnuts are racist and bigoted. Guess they always forget when I was anonymous and referred to Jew Ash and hook noses. Remember calling councilmen shoe shine boys and Uncle Thomas? How about when I talked disgustingly about homosexual sex? I'm glad my friends no I was coming from a place of acceptance and that I just get so fired up over these intolerant right wingnuts.
