These are the people we must rely on to help keep Peabody a vibrant and active community for all its residents and businesses. Sadly, this group spends most of its time bemoaning minor disturbances and rarely can see beyond the malaise and mediocrity that they have helped create here in Peabody.
I yearn for some vision and leadership amongst this important elected body... but instead I am ever disappointed by the nudge-nudge-wink-wink of back room shenanigans and petty turf wars.
Ladies and gentlemen... who ever wins PLEASE PUT THE GOOD OF THE CITY BEFORE YOUR OWN PETTY DIFFERENCES!
My Endorsements:
- Edward A. Bettencourt Jr.
- Anne M. Manning
- David C. Gravel
- And because he is at least smart (while I disagree with his demeanor and positions all too often): James K. Liacos
Michael Garabedian is really stupid. I have absolutely no idea why ANYONE voted for this man. He is an embarrassment to the City and yet (see predictions) he will be reelected. William Aylward is running on the ridiculous ideas of cutting taxes and improving the schools and city services (which can only be done in a campaign promise and not in real life) and James Moutsoulas was the Ward 3 crack pot before the CURRENT Ward 3 crackpot got into power. None of these people deserve to be on the City Council.
SADLY......
My Predictions:
- Edward A. Bettencourt Jr.
- Michael V. Garabedian
- James K. Liacos
- Anne M. Manning
- David C. Gravel
Please feel free to leave your own predictions and endorsements as well.

most interesting PI--you and I have picked the same City Council winners...we are either way off target to those who promise us 'change' this time around OR we are truly in tune with the lethargic voter sentiment here in Dark City...we will know in 24 hours.
