The "gentlemen's agreement" may be as obsolete as the good old days when judges spent the noon hour getting soused at the "Club"......The agreement is that each of six counties in the Fifth Judicial District will get its own hometown judge...
Town of Watertown Justice Jim McClusky is fighting to keep that tradition alive and tonight told supporters at the Black River Valley Club that Syracuse lawyers are trying to steal the Watertown seat so their cronies can have the fat salary jobs that go with it.
Mr. McClusky is a good guy and comes from a family marinated in the law.. His dad was DA and his twin brother is a lawyer. He is among four lawyers running for four seats, including Erin Gall, Mike Young and a guy from Herkimer County, who I am so sorry but I can't remember his name.
Mr. Young got points recently for helping the City on locating a lawyer to advise us on alcohol concession issues...Ms. Gall is from Oneida County and is smart enough to put her face on her lawn signs...
The event was hosted by Matt Doheny, and a good time was had by all.

That Gall girl is getting a little close to you. Since you lost all that weight things are a changin?
Massive pay raises for the Judges, $3.5 million spent on coaxing "green" appliance sales. How's the current administrations getting state spending under control working for everyone?
