diaz would not wrote on Oct 3, 2006 6:11 PM:make a good council member. She is too liberal and does not know the city of escondido well enough.

Put Marie Ed & Sam on the Streets wrote on Oct 3, 2006 8:16 PM:I have a great idea. When the rental ban (aka: illegal immigration ban)is passed, let's elect Marie Waldron (if she maintains a seat on council), Ed Gallo and Sam Abed in charge of enforcing the law!!!! Of course, they are too wimpy to enforce the law that is causing so much tension for all legal citizens - all legal citizens of all nationalities. When the City council approves multiple high priced housing in lower income areas (such as Rose & Washington)I wonder who the heck they think is going to buy the 3,000 sq ft homes in Mission Park? Marie, Ed & Sam are pushing this resolution under the guise of addressing over-crowding issues - when they are the ones that are mostly responsible for housing that is not affordable for most residents in Escondido (and 9% of SD County residents). I think the three "stooges" should be solely in charge of all complaints, all contact with the owners/landlords and the people that are accused of being illegal. They make me sick. I'm looking forward to 2008 - I have a personal mission to get Gallo & Abed out of office!!!!!!!!!!! And I sincerely hope that Waldron loses her seat.

Reality Check Revised wrote on Oct 3, 2006 11:05 PM:Marie Waldron is walking in the footsteps of Billbray - using illegal immigration to try to win a seat. Have you ever watched her at the City Council meetings - she is not the brightest woman. Illegal immigration is a major offense to our country. But, the resolution that Waldron initiated and which will surely be passed tommorrow is a racial one. We need leaders that can unite the city rather than divide. There is no way to enforce the resolution without be racist. Now, that's a real shame to Escondido because all those that support the resolution are teaching our children to judge people and situations by color. Marie Waldron should be ashamed! DO NOT VOTE FOR MARIE WALDRON. And for the record, initially Dick Daniels supported the resolution - but he has since done a 180 and thinks it will be too cumbersome. Dick Daniels is not "Fine". Dick is a advocate for developers and businessmen. He does not support the average citizen. DO NOT VOTE FOR DICK DANIELS. And Lori Holt-Pfeiler. I've met Lori on many occassions and she is a really nice lady. However, I think her time leading Escondido has come to an end. I went to the Mayoral Candidate Forum Esc Country Club on the 28th. One thing I noticed about Lori is that she has alot going on besides being the Mayor. She is the 2nd chair for SANDAG and she has multiple orgs/groups/clubs that she is active in. She kept talking about the region of southern california and how all roads lead to Escondido. Well, until we can get our infrastructure up to par and our schools passing No Child Left Behind guidelines and until we can get the new hospital built - the needs of the citizens of Escondido should be first priority. I do not think that Mayor Pfeiler is concentrating on Escondido alone. VOTE FOR TOM D'AGOSTA. Tom is life-long resident and his focus is Escondido. Tom has great vision for Escondido that includes all LEGAL citizens. Pfeiler should move on...after 14 years, it's time for new leadership.
