I heard that when Casey vacates the treasurer's position, Doherty wants to be in line for that. He would try to run against Kanjorski, but chances of him taking that seat are slim.

Regardless, Doherty is going to leave Scrantonians in the dust with insurmountable debt and no way to pay it back. His new budget increased payroll again with several new $50,000 positions and numerous raises again. He'll be cutting emergency services and the people in E Mtn will cry 'foul' when they discover they have no close fire dept. Oh well, Doherty got what he wanted. It is a no win situation, but money will usually buy any election.

And now, we have to pay again through the sewer debacle. Possible 5 million payback through breach of contract. Doherty has a propensity for that doesn't he?

I think he is still heading for a problem with questionable financial dealings, and I'm hoping the citizens supply the feds with enough information to indict him. Time will tell.
