LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE TWIN TIERS...IT'S ALL BUT CERTAIN THAT CORNING MAYOR TOM REED...A REPUBLICAN... PLANS TO RUN AGAINST THE INCUMBENT DEMOCRAT ERIC MASSA FOR CONGRESS IN THE 29TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. I THINK TOM REED IS MAKING A BIG MISTAKE.
TO BE FRANK, ERIC MASSA IS LIKELY TO EAT REED ALIVE IN THE NOVEMBER 2010 ELECTION. YOU SEE...TOM REED LACKS THE PUBLIC SPEAKING ABILITY, THE GRAVITAS, AND THE CHARISMA TO COMPETE WITH ERIC MASSA. TOM REED IS A FINE FAMILY MAN, A FINE ATTORNEY, AND A FINE PUBLIC SERVANT AND HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO BE SMALL CITY MAYOR. THAT SAID, HE IS SIMPLY NOT READY-- AND PROBABLY WILL NEVER BE READY-- FOR PRIME TIME.
MARK MY WORDS...IF TOM REED IS THE REPUBLICAN WHO RUNS AGAINST ERIC MASSA...THEN MASSA WINS. I SUGGEST THAT REED CHANGE HIS MIND ABOUT RUNNING FOR CONGRESS AND THAT THE REPUBLICANS FIND ANOTHER CANDIDATE…A CANDIDATE WHO HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO COMPETE.
WITH COMMENTARY...I'M YOUR PH.D. OF POLITICS...AND HOST OF THE TWIN TIERS MOST INFORMATIVE PUBLIC AFFAIRS PROGRAM…”COLEMAN AND COMPANY”… DR. STEPHEN HURRICANE COLEMAN THE THIRD...THAT'S MY OPINION...WHAT'S YOURS?
