Each and every day we hear someone else grumbling about how unhappy they are with the City government here in Peabody. Well City Clerk Tim Spanos is waiting for you to come a'knockin.
All it takes is to take out papers from the City Clerks office, get 50 certified Peabody residents to sign, and return them to the Clerk.
I urge folks who really do have a passion for making Peabody a better place to live, work and play to take out these papers and give it a shot! I have great respect for anyone who is willing to put themselves out there and try and make a difference... if they are serious about it. In fact, I will sign ANYONE'S NOMINATION PAPERS, even if I disagree with them, because I am a believer in the democratic system... flaws and all.

I visit this site every now and then and I only read two commentators on here who seem to have a grasp on local affairs. That would be you Insider and the Outfront Guy. Now we don't know who the hell either one of you are but put your skin in the game and pull some papers and get that Outfront Guy to do the same. You guys make sense and we sure as hell need some elected officials who make sense these days. Now you can get a bit of an attitude and that Outfront Guy seems to get a bit perturbed with unions but go for it will you please!
Every incumbant will win. Look for Driscoll to drop out if he's opposed. Niz will not run.
What are your predictions?
Who's in Driscolls ward?
