The Callahan Steamroller is in Full Throttle

First Cartwright. Then Rendell. The John Callahan steamroller is in full throttle, cruising its way to a primary victory in May. That's the impression I got last night when Ed Rendell endorsed the Bethlehem Mayor for Northampton County Executive.

Aside from all the luminaries who have come out of the woodwork for Callahan, there's his operation itself.

Callahan spent last weekend knocking on 500 doors in Easton. No matter how much money you have, that is still the most effective way to campaign. Personal contact. Especially is a race that will have a low turnout.

But it does not end with him. In every municipality, he has at least one person knocking on doors, getting the word out. Last night, he asked the 220+ crowd for their help, knocking on doors or making calls.

This race is going to be a blow out! While Callahan was at that event, I was having dinner with my wife at the Apollo and I look over and McClure is sitting at the bar having a few cold ones.

Reibman should pull a Arcelay and get out now.

Wonder what county job offer brought the old teet sucker Grucella out of the woodwork?

Bernie, I'll go now on record, this will be the third lowest voter turn out per population we have seen in a decade, no steamroller but a lawn tractor.Rain election day,we will see.
