You can have it

1. done quickly
2. done cheaply
3. done well

But there is something else we must bear in mind. What is it that we are doing there?

Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime.

Ah, so that's why all the fuss

In the Journal News this morning, they finally get around to some substantive analysis

Carmel became a major front for an intense power struggle between the Republican Party and the Conservative Party over who will run Putnam's largest town. The five-member board is all Republican.

Republican committee members and Chairman Anthony Scannapieco Jr. froze out Marino, Ravallo and Stahl in April by voting 2-to-1 to support Pozzi, Primavera and DiCarlo.

The town, with roughly 19,000 voters, has 7,462 Republicans, 4,581 Democrats, 1,069 Conservatives and 557 registered Independence Party members. There are 4,894 unaffiliated voters.

Kinda makes you want to get into local Republican politics, doesn't it?
