Future historians may note the curiously classless parallel to RICHARD MILHOUS NIXON's abysmal failure to telephone President John F. Kennedy on election night 1960.
Graceless four-term Mayor JOSEPH LESTER BOLES, JR. never called Nancy Shaver to congratulate her on her election.
Hizzoner did not even send a congratulatory E-mail to concede the election to Mayor-elect Shaver. (Telegrams no longer exist, except to wire money).
As JFK said about NIXON, JOE BOLES "went out the same way he came in -- no class."
See below.
(Postscript: MAYOR BOLES finally got around to calling Mayor-elect Shaver AFTER this post, three days after Election night, on the afternoon of November 8, 2014).
Given what we already know why would you expect anything different? Not gonna change his stripes this late in life . . .
ReplyDeleteClassless mayor maintains his values. Glad he is gone. Now keep your promise and move to North Carolina.
