Ridgewood NJ, In an interesting turn of events Ridgewood ‘s own Paul Vagianos of Its “Greek to Me ” has announced his candidacy ,running as Democratic for State Assembly – District 40.

The campaign will host a major fund raiser on May 9th , Vagianos is relative unknown outside of Ridgewood. So the question is why didn’t our Mayor throw his hat into the ring? He has more name recognition and political background and he has developed a strong friendship with State Senator Kevin O’Tool . Could it our mayor Paul Aronsohn has other plans or is there some other issues like his unenthusiastic support for the Roy Cho campaign against Congressmen Scott Garrett or maybe even some potential fallout from the Bob Menendez  blow up with President Obama ?

To many the town question remains if he win will he take his planters to Trenton?

Village Business owner Paul Vagianos, mayor face off

Business owner, mayor face off

To the editor:

I’ve got a bone to pick with Mayor Aronsohn. No, it’s not about multi-family housing, Valley Hospital or the ramp to Graydon Pool. It’s about something important. At the Huddle Zone celebration that took place at the old Bank of America building the day before the Super Bowl, Mayor Aronsohn and I engaged in a “friendly” game of ping pong. Now, I’ve always felt that he and I were friends (perhaps I was lulled into a false sense of security by that nice name of his – the first name, not the last – thinking we were kindred spirits of a sort). But apparently, that is not the case. I always thought he was a different kind of politician, but apparently I was wrong. He will do anything to win.

Yes, he beat me that day and went on to shout it from the rooftops in his “Mayor’s Corner” column in The Ridgewood News (I’m surprised it wasn’t in the headline – “Mayor Crushes Greek Restaurant Owner.”) Well, let’s set the record straight about what really happened that day. Despite the fact that Mayor Aronsohn didn’t give me any time to warm up, after having played several games himself that day, I pulled out to an early lead and kept it the entire way. And then, when I was ahead 15-12, something happened. I’m not sure how he did it but, all of a sudden, I couldn’t seem to find the ball as he was hitting it over the net. It was as though the ball just disappeared. He scored nine consecutive points to win 21-15. Maybe he slipped something into my drink or somehow reflected the sunlight off his wristwatch, blinding me. (Yes, I know it was indoors, but that building has big windows!) Something happened at that point in the game, and I was helpless before him.
