I think the Providence Journal - after selling its soul again to the Money-God- is itself guilty of hubris in over-vilifying the former Providence Mayor Vincent " Buddy " Cianci . He is always on their pages the " twice convicted felon ". The people I know - influenced by Judeo-Christian morality- also believe deeply in the power of redemption. Just how good are our law-abiding , main stream establishment politicians - all those Democratic and Republican pillars of the moral order- how good are THEY at defending the interests of common working-middle class people ? Are bought and sold judges on a higher moral plane than convicted capitalist swindlers ? Mr. Harrop, for example, talks like a disciple of Ayn Rand. A freeze on taxes- in the interest of the little people I presume ? Do ANY of the candidates, I ask, have a problem with the infamous ONE PERCENT ? Do they ever question the legitimacy of free market wealth ? Perhaps like a Julius Caesar " Buddy " Cianci will offer not much more than bread and circuses to the common people of Providence. But that is better than nothing. God bless him !
