After attending the mayoral debate, I was dismayed to hear Steve Fields come out in an accusatory manner. I hoped that wouldn’t set the tone for the evening….thanks to the class of John Marchione, it didn’t. I listened very carefully to each question, and while Mayor Marchione had not only answers but solutions, Fields did not. Fields may well know how to run a small business, but he is in no way ready or capable of running a city government as was clearly evidenced by his lack of knowledge and sketchy answers. He needs to start with a city council position to ready himself for the all-important job of managing our city.
