ON THE SIDE. . .
This and that from the world of Valley politics.
IS THAT A WRAP? The Democrats of the 17th and 6th Districts is giving strong consideration to taking down its message board -- www.dems17.org/phorum/board.htm -- a daily must-read for political junkies, like myself. I'm not embarrassed to acknowledge I've picked up news tips from the board as well as enjoy some of its political satire over its six-year history. Like any message board, you've got to wade through some garbage and vile posts.
The political club will vote on the fate of the message board at its March 20 meeting. The group had originally planned to make that decision in January and then February, but put it off both times.
If it's up to Mark Belinky, the club's secretary/treasurer and the main monitor of the board, he'd pull the plug on it.
