Senator Morra is a person I have tremendous respect for, and seeing this piece has helped me alot. The mayor of providence would never ever get a vote from me after what he has done in the city of Providence. I was on the fence between Gem and Lynch and I agree with Senator Morra that his ideas are not-real, although I wish they were possible, So my vote will go to Bill Lynch mostly in part because of the way he speaks to the voters during the tv debates, does not read like all the others do and speaks to the people in laymens terms that we can understand. Saying billion, trillion and million in the same sentence only confuses me. Sorry Gem but I just can't follow what your saying at all. You are a sound business man but Im a voter so although your numbers may mean alot its just to hard for voters to follow. Plus Mr. Lynch is not rich and doesn't have the most money which makes him the underdog. I love a good underdog, just like my Red Sox. Bill Lynch has earned my vote. Best of luck to all.
