Despite the slick flyers and the tent in the Wizer parking lot,
Besides the crony letters to the editor of the LOReview,
In spite of the big bucks thrown at political operatives, websites, PR sent to multiple news outlets, blast emails, contact with downtown businesses and half-page, color newspaper advertising...the community has not been swayed. All the money used in the PR campaign to gain favor for the largest, densest development in town has not purchased the hearts and minds of Lake Oswegans. It's hard to sell when people don't want to buy what you are selling.
