I have a different grading system based on what they personally have gained.
Stuchell-B-, edited. He's quite good at stroking his own ego and servicing his "constituents" those in govt. employ or benefiting from "the keefer". The Keefer isn't open so he's not reaping the full waffles with syrup rewards. I can't see what he gains but ego points, but people do value that kind thing.
Bruns-D-, in voting logically and calling out staff he has put a target on his back, for no real personal gain I can see. I fear Bruns is doomed, he has integrity.... it will be his heal.
Bentley-F+, in asking logical questions he has isolated himself from the feed trough. Bad move unless you already know the answers and can spin it for your benefit. He is smart maybe he will "learn", if only he can put aside his honorable character, it burdens him on council.
Morrisey-B-, He's done a nice job of saying and doing the necessary limited amount to maintain the "power" he is allowed. I can't see what he gains other than his position but some people value those kinds of things highly.
Wolfram-A-, similar to my neighbor Bill he does the right amount of doing but he's very good a chiming in to make sure the Dawn gets its "due" and whatever goes on does so out of his harbor-his "needs" are served while petting his govt. buddies real good. I'm quite impressed with Gary, he is doing a good job getting his.
Flynn-C+, Bob has the correct tone and delivery. He is pointed in the right direction but I'm not sure he's found a good landing place like many of council have. I honestly think if Bob had better info he'd destroy his grade... He just needs to tune out any other voices but those working in city hall and he will be on the right track for a better grade.
Paladino-F-, I can not figure out what Josh is doing... He has stood up for what's right and he has to know that is not how its done.... Just an all round failure I can see nothing he has gained but pain.
Socha-C- Robert knows what is right and wants to do it, then he get's his senses and pivots to better moves. Other than the road diet and camp hope it's hard to pin Robert down enough to see what he has gained other than position. I think if he really leans into it especially as mayor, just do what "the staff" says he could earn an easy B+, and a left turn lane into his home.
Mackie- S+++++++++++++++++++++++++, He gets paid 4-6 times the HOUSEHOLD average in county. He has no sads or mill-to-the-gill he lives with me in township, he has ultimate power to do as he pleases, he controls even the local press (HDN, Murray) it would appear. I really have no negatives on David he is the puppet master and he is masterful at it. No one has taken him on and triumphed other than a man with a driveway. David really is a man to watch and admire.... I do!
You fools have this all wrong, see these seats are about you, "gettin' mine" not serving the people.... When you WAKE UP and see that clearly you'll see the need to regrade based on merit not your fee fees.... Young idealistic immature FOOLS, stroke Lansing/DC, stomp on tax payer nutz, get money, serve self interest with that money.... Come on can't you see the play? There is no other curve worth grading, until the voters wake up and care... your just fooling yourself and encouraging good young men to make a bad wrong play.
"Sad for you, township for me"...... is the play young men, learn or be doomed.
