When Willie Flood wuz Fust approached wid de oppo'tunity t'run fo' mayo' she declined. De prospect uh runnin' fo' de office uh de joker who meant so's much t'ha' wuz dauntin', not cuz' she wuz incapable uh handlin' de rigo's uh campaignin' and service, but cuz' it would continue t'broaden de rift already dividin' Jersey City and ha' suc ka's.

Outside repo'ts on de findin's uh de poll conducted by de Refo'm Democratic Party wuz already leaked befo'e ha' announcement, purpo'tin' Lou Manzo as deir defacto kindun didate. Whut outsiders dun did not consida' wuz dat polls is only as useful as de suc ka's who interpret dem. WORD!

We ax'ed Ms. Flood about ha' decision t'run, "I would not gots done it if de polls dun did not say ah' could do it. Man! Jersey City gots been drough some lot in de past few monds, and da damn only reason t'run wuz cuz' de suc ka's wanna see me run. 'S coo', bro."

Would it be hard fo' ha' to wo'k around da damn justified anga' and resentment dat she could gots fo' ha' opponent? "We've gots'ta put doodads dat is in de past t'de side in o'da' to make it t'de future. Jersey City needs healin'. De suc ka's uh Jersey City deserve an elected official who gots'ta put dem fust, and not county Manes."

Willie Flood wuz de obvious choice. She gots served Jersey City as some farm head homeboy fo' some 30 plus years. She gots served on de bo'd uh educashun. She gots served on de city council. She be familiar wid dese circumstances, havin' filled da damn un-'spired term uh fo'ma' councilhonky chick Maureen Collier. Ah be baaad... She be de one true legitimate kindun didate in dis race dat had da damn relashunship wid Glenn Cunnin'ham dat dey claim. WORD! We is very confident and glad dat Willie gots accepted dis call t'service wid de same grace dat she gots shown in de past.

Man!" Acco'din' t'Bobby Buckwheatson, publisha' of de Urban Times News and Refo'm Democrat Party big-wig, de polls made da damn difference in his decision. 'S coo', bro. Dere wuz baaaad numbers fo' Lou Manzo, and Buonoco'e, but Willie Flood wuz widin two o' dree puh'centage points uh de leaders widout havin' announced dat she wuz eva' intendin' t'run. 'S coo', bro. We duzn't plum run some popularity contest, we consida' whut de suc ka's say dey wanna see, and fum de polls, de suc ka's wanna see Willie Flood in office."

When ax'ed about da damn suppo't uh dat fine femahnaine ladee Cunnin'ham, conspicuously absent fum de proceedin's and RDC, Mrs. Flood wuz kind and gracious. Dis repo'ta' howeva' could not help but notice da damn lack uh sparkle in ha' demeano' when touchin' on de sensitive topic. Co' got d' beat! "We is of course disappointed dat Mrs. Cunnin'ham gots suppo'ted anoda' candun didate against da damn party dat ha' husband founded, but we recognize whut she gots been drough and we recognize dat it be ha' right t'choose wcribva' she wantsa suppo't. Man! Dis be America and everyone gots de right t'make deir own decisions."
