Candidates' Night at Barristers' Club Tonight

Lehigh County's stately Barristers' Club, located at 1114 West Walnut Street in Allentown, will be the venue for a two hour candidates' night featuring candidates in Lehigh County's races, including the Gang of Four's Holy Crusade against Dean Browning.

It starts at 6:30 PM, and audience members will have an opportunity to pose questions.

Question 1:

Dean, are you proud of your deciding vote to raise taxes 16% unnecessarily in the worst economy since The Great Depression?

Terrible spin, if the voters buy that one we have an even worse problem.

Dean? 16%?

I went and all that came out of the debate was the continuing bashing Dean Browning. I heard nothing in specifics of what the gang of four plan to govern. Seems to me if you are running as a group, you would have a coordinated plan. Wasn't there.

I, too, attended the debate last night and was glad I did. It's always worthwhile to hear and see candidates in person before casting your vote.

I've made a conscious and openly declared decision to not comment publicly on the fight between Dean Browning and the ticket that opposes him, however I would like to make the following observations:

There were valid points made last night by each of the candidates, even Mike Welsh, who at times seemed out of his depth: Jenna Portnoy's story in today's Call gives a good recap.

And Brad Osborne came out of the fray sounding reasonable and statesmanlike.

So you wont share your opinions when it involves republicans.Thats why many dont value your opinions. you only rant and rave against democrats.

Excuse me? I've published at least ten articles condemning th Gang of Four, who happen to be Republicans. I've published three or four blogs taking aim at LC GOP party boss Wayne Woodman. You don't know what you're talking about.

Sorry bernie, my comment 12:21 was aimed at pam.

My mistake.

Pam has a right to be Switzerland in this rivalry between members of her own party. It might actually be the best policy to just watch and decide in the voting booth. We end up making lots of enemies when we take sides. I think I understand why Pam is sitting this one out. She can't fight every battle.
