Skrep mulling replacing Lemmond


Give me a break. He has been a Luzerne County Commissioner for 2 years who billed himself as a fresh start but has continued business as usual. I'm not impressed with his performance so far and now he is thinking of running for state senator or is it another tease like when he was going to run for Congress. Dr. Rick at the American Check-up did some amateur psychoanalysis about that idea that still applies. A short list of criticisms of his tenure starts with his hiring of his gym buddy Sam Hyder then giving him a nice raise. And Hyder wasn't the only well connected person to get a job. He has never met a consultant he wouldn't pay to study every problem facing the county. Luzerne County can't meet it's payroll without borrowing money every year. He votes to lay off a bunch of people then gives a golden parachute to the one's that are left financed by another bond. I could go on and on. I would like to see a serious Democrat run for this seat, he is not it. Time for Bill Fitz to re-start his Stop Skrep site.

who are the other serious Dems in this area? Skrep is the only Dem that my back mountain relatives have voted for since electricity found its way into the region (1920 according to Grandma).
