Cool. It is About Time Someone is Challenging the Mayor.
HistoricVienna.com just received this ...
Ladies and Gentlemen,As a resident of Vienna Va for 48 years. Thats right my entire life. I went through the ranks of Vienna schools, VYI Football, basketball, baseball, soccer. I was President of the Vienna Jaycees, Director in the Chamber of Commerce, Director of the Halloween parade...etc etc. I love Vienna more then I love most things in life. My hometown. The town I tear up about when I drive through the streets and remember. However in the past 5 years I have grown quite displeased with so many things in the town. I read about Mayor Jane Seeman and can tell you all, it's all true. She out of touch and I speak on direct issues I bought to Ms. Seeman myself. My issues were ignored and now she doesn't even want to talk to me anymore. I have sat in on many of the town council meetings, traffic control meetings and carefully listened to the residents and the complaints they had on their streets issues. I wrote down everything they said and periodically go to the streets that have a traffic problem and absolutely nothing has been done. If you want the Fairfax County residents to continue to cut through our neighborhoods, then I suggest you vote for Mayor Jane Seeman
However, I ask you all to be patient. I am announcing that I will challenge her for the position of Mayor in 2010. I have a traffic control plan that as Mayor I will order in to affect immediately. The quality of our lives have declined due to the same old policies here in the Town of Vienna. Also, the 23K spent on the Laser show in my opinion was a flop. Money not wisely spent. At the opening of the ceremony, Ms. Seeman even announced that this was a beginning of a long tradition in the Town, meaning be prepared for an expensive laser show that equates to nearly $ 20.00 per second.

If they think Mr. Rossi is a threat to their power, Jane will retire midway through her 2 year term in 2009. An interim Mayor (re: Maud crony) will be appointed and then they will run that person to beat Mr. Rossi in 2010. It's a very devious way they play their game. Watch and see what happens ....

Have faith in my ability and connections. I have known Maude for many years and she will not fight either. She soon to be retired. I believe I do have a great plan, good backing and the desire. I'm not a politician, only a strong individual that knows Vienna and the true way it should be treated. It is time, it is our time to being Vienna back to its true glory.
Maintain Faith.

I don't see any particularly specific plans written within this article that would fix the complaints that the sender lists, so I hope Rossi has one detailed out SOMEWHERE. And, I'm still in high school, so obviously I can't vote, but I don't think I could ever vote for someone with grammar like that.
