Harold, btw, is not his real name. I am not a fool.
Well. Primo is gutsier than I am. Primo wants Harold to come to his fundraiser/campaign launch party this week and he wants Harold's endorsement. So he knocked on Harold's door again.
Harold wasn't home, so Primo left him a note and a flyer for the fundraiser.
"What if he ignores you again?" I asked.
"Who's he going to endorse?" Primo asked. "My opponent? It will look really bad for him if he refuses to endorse me. He needs to do what's good for the party."
We'll see how much ego Harold has. I don't think he cares about what's good for the party. He just doesn't want to look bad if Primo wins.
I think Harold sounds like a smug, lazy, self-serving ingrate. I expect him to do as little as possible - or nothing.
ReplyDeleteAnd you would be correct on that. He did nothing. Is still doing nothing.
Delete(Primo met someone the other night who had voted for Harold in the primary, even though the voter is not in Harold's party. His explanation was that Harold appeared to be kind of lazy and do nothing and he'd rather have a do-nothing PD in government than an active one.)
