Should we vote for Sarah Peake or Don Howell?
Maybe we won't have to put up with another two years of "her"
The "Queen of Corruption" gets a Progressive GOP challenger
For her fellows gays, Sarah is a Goddess. Don Howell is not a lesbian. He is a heterosexual married man.The "Queen of Corruption" will have a challenger after all. It didn't come as a surprise when former Harwich Selectman Don Howell announced that he is challenging Sarah Peake for the House seat in the fourth Barnstable distric.
Don Howell and Sarah Peake have a lot in common. They are both old; a little too old to be running for such a position that should be held by someone with high energy. Both of them were selectmen for several years. Both of them are liberals. Both of them have a special bond with Cynthia Stead (the ultra-liberal State Committee woman). Both of them are staunchly in favor of abortion, gay marriage, and sometimes higher taxes.

No GOP lesbian patronage ring
But there are also a few important differences. Sarah Peake on several occasions has been exposed for rewarding her campaign donors and campaign workers with high-paying government jobs. Coincidentally, all of Peake's patronage recipients were old butch lesbians, just like her. Unlike Peake, Don Howell hasn't formed a lesbian patronage ring.
Speaking of lesbians, Representative Peake is a lesbian, and she uses it for her advantage. If you investigate where her vast political contributions comes from, you will find that she is very well liked and supported by three main constituencies: special interests, dopey Ptown gay men, and old lesbians. For her fellows gays, Sarah is a Goddess. Don Howell is not a lesbian. He is a heterosexual married man. But, similar to Sarah's political strategy, he does use his heterosexuality to his political advantage (nothing wrong with that). His major supporters are poor families from Harwich, unlike Peake's super wealthy gay business elite.
After old lesbians, hateful middle aged gay men are definitely Sarah's next biggest constituency. On her website you will see a picture of her singing the national anthem with Ptown selectman Austin Knight at a baseball game in Orleans. They thought they could fool all the normal families by "appearing" normal and patriotic. Selectman Knight was one of Peake's biggest supporters and a top deputy on her campaign in 2004 and 2006.
Peake called Shirley Gomes as a "bitch"
While campaigning for her in 2004 he referred to Shirley Gomes as a "bitch," because she didn't support gay marriage. But why should he care about gay marriage? Knight was just busted for sexually harassing male town employees while using taxpayer-funded resources (town cars and more!). He thought he could use his position as selectman to get young male town employees to entertain his unfulfilled sexual desires, just like his buddy Sarah Peake uses her political clout to reward the lesbians. But Selectman Knight took it a step too far. Unlike Peake, Don Howell steers queer... I mean steers clear of wacky gays.
Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound and Sarah
Based on my own inside knowledge, this is how the Alliance was able to indirectly funnel money to Sarah Peake and influence her position. Speaking of Austin Knight. His ex-boyfriend was a Director for the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound. Based on my own inside knowledge, this is how the alliance was able to indirectly funnel money to Sarah Peake and influence her position. Unlike Sarah Peake, Don Howell has a hard time raising special interest money because he isn't good at sleazy money laundering tactics like Sarah is.
Big money vs. big ideas
Sarah Peake comes from wealth, and I mean BIG MONEY. So does her lover. She has never had to struggle a day in her life. Hence she is known in Ptown as being an A-Gay, a term that is used to describe Provincetown's gay ruling class. The Ptown gentry LOVE her. And as she campaigns about how much she cares about the poor, her friends who own businesses in town pay their workers minimum wage and treat their workers worse than animals. Several of Sarah's closest friends are known for humiliating their workers and sometimes not even paying them.
She's a DINO* and he's a Liberal Republican
Unlike Sarah, Don Howell is a true "bleeding heart" liberal. While she gets ripped and parties with her rich elite friends, he is down in the trenches with the people that Sarah and her friends exploit. Sarah down deep is really an elitist Republican in Democrats' clothing. After all, she comes from a family of Republican elected officials. Lucky for her, they are far enough away in New York (where my family used to have clout in Democratic politics). So the moonbat liberals will never find out.
I think that this race will definitely be an uphill battle for Howell. Sarah Peake is no dummy. She has spent years cultivating a very wealthy and powerful following. Howell, on the other hand thought that organizing and mobilizing the poor was the way to go. But this is Cape Cod, not a factory town in the midwest. The conservative working-class families who support Howell can be easily crushed by the financial muscle and influence of the Lower Cape's gentry liberals.
Two candidates and five months to decide
So who should we vote for? We have 2 candidates and 5 months to decide. One is a family man who took in and adopted foster children. The other is somebody who lied her way into office to promote her own personal interests and agenda. Howell works as a drivers education teacher and spends his free time helping youth and families. Peake does the photo ops with regular people and children, then drives home to Ptown to resume her social life with bizarre and eccentric gay women. Somehow I think that voters attitudes could change. It's up to Howell to expose the incumbent Representative for who she really is.

It's a pity that Aaron is sitting this one out, as the sheer entertainment value would be priceless.
Yes, Walter will say, "if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen." Another trite response. Walter, you are great, but come on.
