" Bettini has termed out. She can NOT run for Borough Assembly next year. However, I would keep my eye on her. She will probably go for Mark Newmans seat next. Big Lake! WAKE UP! GET INVOLVED because your decision to not get involved are hurting the rest of us! "

" Doesn't matter who's on the asembly the sales tax will be back sooner or later. Glad this one failed. "

" Congratulations and a big thank you to the voters of Districts 3 and 6 for disposing of Church and Wells. I am looking forward to doing my part for the rest of the borough by sending Bettine packing when she comes up again. "

" The changes to the assembly and shooting down our homeowners only likely chance of lower property tax makes the choir of hate mongers, name callers the true villains they are. Get off your dead butts and start attending assembly meetings with good ideas for improving our valley and leave your spit at home! The only thing that seems to motivate some is a good brawl. Find your civil voice and bring some positive input if you have any. I suspect the personal attacks is all you got for ideas. "

" Bettine and Houston are the names to remember from this. It isn't enough to just say "vote them out". We need people willing to serve in these positions that listen to the people not the pollsters.
The mayor seemed to get it. Maybe they will respect him and appreciate him more in the future. The voters sure seemed to! "

" Bye Church, Bye Wells and so long Cindy as soon as possible, thanks for trying to lead us into a truly socialist Borough. You have done enough now so crawl under your rocks and hide, your legacy is not a good one. And so much for the Friends of Mat Su, you seem to be a very small interest wrapped up in a smaller package. Thank goodness people are waking to your type of waste and self interest service for the minority at the expense of the majority, guess you heard it this time, correct? "

" If I were Cindy Bettine, I'd be very worried for next year. Church and Wells put their names on the sales tax initiative and people let their votes be heard. Bettine led the sales tax charge. Don't forget that when she is up for reelection next year - but I'm sure she'll change her tune come election time. "

" The sales tax has now failed six times since 1991 but the MSB budget continues to go up every year. Almost every borough service except road maintenance needs to be cut. Our Assemblypeople seem oblivious to the concept that our residents want smaller less intrusive government. This election should be a wake up call. Next year we need to retire tax and spend liberals Pete Houston and Lynn Woods and then Cindy Bettine in 2011. At the MSB sales tax meeting the people clearly told you could not have both a sales and property tax, you should have listened. "
