I wonder why so few bids were received? 3 received out of 46 requested, I would think they would be jumping at it. Its good to see a contract go to a local company, the construction industry is really suffering.

Do you realize how ignorant you all sound? Something good comes about for a local Middletown business and that is all you have to contribute?

Hey bigot Lean
You forgot to get the rest of the party of NO talking points, why no mention of Acorn. That slip you small little mind. Bet they are the ones that stole the contract for the local firm. They are organizers and vote stealers, bet they steal contracts too. Guess it is a lot better to do the GWB Inc and just award it to your friends with a no bid, that way you control who gets it and just how much you get as kick back, just ask good old boy GWB and his sidekick Death Cheney.
