We deserve better in Anne Arundel County!

So politics as usually in this County, perennial candidate for office Phil Bissett is running for office yet again this year. Bissett announced for the County Council from District 7 in February and held a fundraiser on Old Turkey Point Road in Edgewater on Thursday, April 22, 2010. He has lost two races for County Executive to both of our last two dismal County Executives in 2002 and 2006. What did he learn from these losses? Apparently, if you stand along the roads in this County holding a sign with your name the complete dearth of decent candidates for office will eventually win you an election because voters recognize your name. We deserve better in this County!

Anne Arundel County has real problems like the rest of the State and Region. We need qualified candidates who bring skill and education to the table. Do we want to continue to be governed by the also-rans who hang around until eventually they luck into a turn at bat? Can your property values afford this? Can your kid’s education afford this? Can your pocket book afford this? Our current County Executive was a joke who held a sign along the road for years until it was his turn to get elected. We deserve better in Anne Arundel County!

Bissett is a Southern High School graduate with some college. No truly gainful employment. At least nothing that requires his time at a job instead of standing along a road aimlessly holding a sign with his name. We need some skilled governance and experienced judgment. This is a large modern County. We need leaders with a broader skill set than the ability to hold up a sign with their name on it and wait for their turn. We deserve better in Anne Arundel County!

This Blog will monitor and report on the lastest attempt by Bissett for gainful public employment. Who should be elected to the AACO County Council from District 7? Not Bissett! Anybody but Bissett!! It is time for a change in the politics of this County.
