    Ron Heckman would have made an excellent county exec.

    Ron Heckman ran for, and lost, the Dog Catcher race in Bethlehem two years ago.

    Running a city race and a County race are two entirely different races. Everytime he ran countwide he won..In 1989 he finished 4th or fifth in the city of bethlehem and still won countywide. Two different races there, 8:09. Of course if you had a clue , you would have known that. Could he have beaten Stoffa. Maybe not, but I would guess he'd have ran stronger than McHale did.

    There is no doubt in my mind that Ron Heckman would have run a campaign. Ann McHale did not run a campaign, therefore, I agree with you that "he'd have ran stronger than McHale did."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion.

If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics.
