State Sen. Palumbo doesn’t share values of his party

In response to Sen. Guy Palumbo’s assertion that he shares the values of 1st District Democrats: Palumbo could not earn the endorsement of paid members of the legislative district Democrats because he does not share the values as he states.

Here is another example of how money trumps democracy. Palumbo has a deep pocketbook, filled by moneyed supporters in Medina. He used character assassination to convince voters to support him. He is a supporter of charter schools, contrary to district Democrats’ general beliefs.

For Palumbo to assert that he shares the values of 1st District Democrats doesn’t match the reality among its members.
