To the Political Machine of WILLIAM B. HARRISS at the Taberna de Gallo: "Don't Count Your Chickens Before They Hatch"

To the Political Machine of WILLIAM B. HARRISS:
"Don't Count Your Chickens Before They Hatch"

Controversial St. Augustine, Florida Mayor
Mayor GEORGE GARDNER sent numerous E-mails inviting people to a a victory party celebration November 7 at the Taberna de Gallo, the city-owned pub on St. George Street.

Is Mayor GARDNER crowing prematurely, inviting people to join a celebration of his anticipated victory in the race for Commission Seat 3? Is this another "Dewey Beats Truman" headline?

"Taberna de Gallo" means the Rooster's Tavern in Spanish. To the St. Augustine political machine of City Manager WILLIAM B. HARRISS and Mayor GEORGE GARDNER, do you remember what your mothers told you: "Don't count your chickens before they hatch?"

Is Wanna-be Mayor JOSEPH LEROY BOLES, JR. also prematurely celebrating victory?

In America (as opposed to the late dictator Francisco Franco's fascist Spain) we count all the votes before anyone celebrates victory, boys. Does anyone have a good recipe for Pico de Gallo?

See you November 7th at the polls.
