Quotes

"This election must be about who has the skills and vision to lead Rhode Island out of the financial mess we are in," said Block in a statement. "it can't come down to a choice between status quo candidates who raise staggering amounts of money from special interests outside of the state, or candidates who are completely bereft of ideas. i intend to run a strong campaign with the vision and ideas necessary to convince voters that i am the best possible choice for fixing our state."
...and desperate for a Governor who won't just talk about economic development, but who actually has the skills to do something about it," said Block. "what rhode island needs now are elected officials who are motivated not by the status quo, but by the desire to fix what is so broken in our state. the serious problems with our economy and educational system will only be solved with hard work, attention to detail and a dedication to serving the best interests of the majority of rhode island's residents."
"That wouldn't surprise me that you were able to observe something like that," Block said. "in my report we actually documented not just the use of a single card in that scenario but i think as many as ten cards where they were used on after the other after the other."
