“Finding and supporting a mayoral candidate who can lead Toledo into the future it deserves.”

“It is our intention to be able to give significant support to those we feel are worthwhile candidates.”

From the take back toledo, site.

What candidate or office holder would welcome support from this group, what with the track record of this media led group. How quickly would supporters of the candidate turn on the candidate, when the candidate did not tow the line of group, either perceived or imagined.

And some in the take back toledo camp tell us that it is not the role of government to create jobs, but the group wants a pro-business candidate in office.

I looked at the Take Back Toledo site, and I saw no petition sites in the downtown area. I would think a downtown site would be prime, especially one that is frequented by office workers on lunch break. It seems to me a untapped area for potential signatures.

Here’s the Wiki post that outlines Carty and some of his “accomplishments”:

Sounds a bid icky if you ask me.

“Take Back Toledo needs to practice guerilla marketing”

They could dress up as UPS truck drivers, put their petition on a clipboard, and, well, you can see where I’m going with this.
