Check your mailbox today and look at the latest attempt for TJM to get reelected. They are referencing a letter in the Messenger from 2001 from Terry's mother. I can't wait for all of you to see it! What a joke! This letter is 8 years old obviously alot has changed since 2001!

I will look forward to getting my mail today because this stuff is humerous and desperate. With all of his antics, balloons, robo-calls, snowy picnics, and Midlo Messenger blabber, does he not realize he is alienating more voters and motivating the rest of us? What a knucklehead! Go Blue!

This is a whole new low! If he can't win on issues, he'll deceive the voters by using an 8 year old letter. Unbelievable...

Okay, I can't help but laugh at this. I don't know who is giving Tom advice but he should have stopped listening a long time ago. I am at a total loss for words on this one. He had already lost this election in my opinion but I really have no doubts now. I think he knew it too and he is just taking his final blows at Terry. Terry, all I can say to you is thank you for being the upstanding candidate that you have been. I have looked through all the materials that have been sent to me by both candidates and you have run a clean campaign. I look forward to having you as my mayor.

Remember, actions speak louder than words and with Tom's new actions (grasping at straws)we see that he is just an unbelievable, desperate, poor excuse for a Mayor. I hope this backfires on him and people see his true colors!

I agree Frances. On the day before this very important election, tom's coup de grace is an 8 year old letter from Terry's mom. As watchdog said unbelievable. A lot can happen in 8 years. Take me for example. I was married before and within a couple of years I realized something was wrong. Gave it a couple of more years to try to work things out. After year six it was evident that things were completely awry and I knew I needed a complete dissolution of marriage. Tom let this be notice that you have been served. Our marriage is officially dissolved.

Amen to that! I haven't really got any TJ garbage in the mail. All I can say is that I'm Proud to Know Terry, Vote for Terry and the Blue Team and can honestly say. We have Candidates with Integrity.

Oh you mean it didn't even take you the full 8 years huh? Yeah Tom, the town is asking you for a divorce. Should we ask him for child support too?

We have not got our mail yet but we are looking forward to reading the letter, but I did some calling and was able to come up with an earlier letter TOM wrote to his mother, hope you enjoy.

Dear Mommy:

I think I should come home because things are starting to go very bad for me, all the other kids are saying bad things, and they don’t believe me anymore.

I tried to buy them balloons and they just laughed, real loud too.

The food is good here but now I have no one to eat with.

I real do like parades and some of the kids say they will give me one if I leave.

Well I better say goodbye and maybe I can be home for Halloween, you know I really like that holiday because of all colors and treats.

Oh, I got to go the lights are going out.

Love
Your Tommy

I posted this another but it fits better here.

Now I know why Mayor Tom has not been campaigning much.

This a quote from today's BS mailer.

"I know many of you have wondered why I have not been campaigning as much as has been the case in the past, I have always enjoyed being out on the campaign trail, listening to you, sharing ideas, plans and programs we have for the future. These are not ordinary times. The crises we confront demand politics and political gamesmanship take a backseat to the work of preserving the present and ensuring the future of our village. Politics is a luxury in which I cannot and will not engage."

Mayor Murawski

This one full paragraph, What a load. Listening to us? Sharing the ideas, plans and programs? What? Sharing? Now he decided to find his office and work on the problem he created. Thanks but no thanks.

Yes, I received that one today also. Great timing this one trying to use an (8)year old quote from his mother against Terry. I have read a lot of crap from Team Pumpkin. This has to take the cake. The big headline Listen to your mother! This deserves a WOW!. This one should go directly to the asinine political mailer hall of fame. Be proud MR. Mayor you have hit a new low even for you.

Again WOW!

Nah, Frances, it doesn't take me an hour to watch 60 Minutes. And yes on the child support. Many years of back support I'm thinking.

I just got home and retrieved my mail, and wasn’t disappointed. As promised, the TJM Idiot Party sent me an endorsement letter from 2001. Hey Tom, guess what has happened since your letter from March 2001? Here are just several events that come to mind …

Two twin towers were knocked down in an act of terror ... A hurricane wiped out New Orleans and many other southern cities ... Our country is involved in another gulf war ... The White Sox won the world series ... Illinois sent a former governor to jail and impeached another ... The credit crisis has crippled the entire world ... gas shot to four dollars a gallon and back down to two ... Our citizens elected the first African American president in history ... You have embarrassed yourself many times ... And finally, you have crashed the bus, and must be removed

Tom, I don’t know who is coming up with these ideas for your campaign, but it must be someone that actually supports the blue team because you guys look like idiots. I’ve kept and shared my mailings with people from other towns, and you know what Tom, people are laughing at you. I bet now you wished you wore a shirt and tie for that goofy campaign photo and thought better of your trustee choices.

Several hours to go and the “fat lady” is warming up to sing.

Go Blue!!!

You would think that the night before the election, TJM would want to highlight his view on the issues. ... Oh that's right, he has no view on the issues. He wants us to elect the experienced party ... experienced at pulling Midlothian down the tubes.

Normally I would be giving a test for the informed voters of Midlothian, but, due to YOUR latest debacle, I feel that I should offer some medical guidance.

Yes, I am capable in this field, TOM; you have to cease what you are doing immediately, for some time we knew it could bring about blindness or at the very least lead to glasses, but unlit now we never thought it could initiate stupidity.

Capricorn often takes comfort in the tried-and-true, but there is a part of you that longs for the excitement of change.
