Sentinel: DeSalvatore: Loss came from 'character assassination'

The Sentinel and Enterprise, a day late and a dollar short as usual, is still focused on yesterday's - no make that day BEFORE yesterday's news.

Here's the bits and bytes from the Sentinel, 9/27/07

No comments necessary here. Read and roll.

"Ted DeSalvatore credits a 'character assassination' as the largest reason he finished third in Tuesday's mayoral race. "

" 'Unfortunately for this city they got the wrong impression of Ted DeSalvatore,' he said..."

" 'They saw me as the strong one, so they knew they had to take me down,' DeSalvatore said. "

"DeSalvatore said 'information terrorists' called his supporters and spread negative information about him. "

" 'I would have launched later," DeSalvatore said. 'Giving these individuals less time to destroy my character.' "

"He did not rule out the possibility of a future bid for an elected position."

"' For those that have been involved in city government: Shame on you for shenanigans and letting things go to hell.' "

.... said the current Ward 4 Councilor who claims to have been brought down by a sick woman in a wheelchair.

DeSalvo changes his style

How does a man with no job, a bank teller wife, who is upside down in double mortgages and incomplete (and stopped) house construction find the excess cash for BLING????

Between guffaws, the ladies at the Senior Center are wondering where the chronically unemployed DeSalvo found the funds for the chest wig, gold necklace and signet ring.

Refunds from excess yard signs perhaps?

Apparently no one told Rocky Marciano that chest hair is SO 70's.

Watch out for little old ladies with razors, Ted!

Baker's Dozen

Ted with his buttons pushed!

What the people and the papers have had to say about Ted E DeSalvatore over the past year - Here's a collage of 13 of the best excerpts from around the web.

... IN A NUTSHELL, you might say...

... first I would like to apologize to the city for my ward councilor. I made a mistake with my vote and I have never been so sorry....

...Ted’s public temper tantrums about these elaborate conspiracy theories he has manufactured in his mind are an embarrassment to our entire city....

...I have lived in Ward 4 for two years and pray that following next year, we will have an advocate on the council that will attempt to work with others instead of antagonizing his/her peers!...

...DeSalvatore has no grounding in reality and no concept of the intricacies of crime control demands in a relatively large, economically disadvantaged city such as Fitchburg....

...Ted has shown an amazing inability to work with his peers. This kind of behavior is unacceptable. I live in his ward and supported him in the previous election....

...Let's hope that 2007 will be the last year that the good residents of this city have to deal with this type of person!...

...It would appear that Mr DeSalvatore has hardly gotten seated in the city council chambers and he is already eyeing the mayors office. From the day he first took office he has taken every opportunity to get his name in the newspaper....

...Maybe Mr DeSalvatore would care to share with us where he obtained his experience in the field of law enforcement....

...Desalvator has yet to show us he has critical thinking....

...City Councilor Ted DeSalvatore apologized to a local woman for scaring her after he followed her...

...City Councilor and mayoral candidate Ted E. DeSalvatore said he's never backed down from a fight...

...Ward 4 City Councilor Ted E. DeSalvatore said Monday he does not think his financial problems 10 years ago should prevent him from becoming...

...Listen carefully to his words and speeches. He is playing to the crowd. It is a political ploy for publicity and votes....

Outtakes - The Rest of the Story

We understand from another blog that "anonymous" is complaining that we delete all the positive comments from the SayNo site. So, in the interest of equal time, here are ALL the expunged comments from the DeSalvo supporters. Never let it said that we aren't FAIR and BALANCED!
