While Bill Dwight's email has managed to really roil NoHo's mayor's contest, Agawam is really where the action is. Current lame duck Susan Dawson gets herself into another fight, once again at the Hall of Fame complex (what is it about that place). Dawson claims to have a "personal relationship with Jesus" and will now be issued a no trespass order courtesy of the guy who owns the restaurant (see the Republican for details).
Meanwhile, the leading vote getter in the mayoral primary, Derek Benton, admits to an arrest at a downtown Springfield strip club for destruction of property and assaulting a police officer. Benton, a former aid to Brian Lees (and presumably a good law and order Repub) calls the whole flap "petty politics" and notes that "its not me" who was arrested. If it wasn't him, who was it?
Moral of the story: when an Agawam politician promises to "fight" take them literally and be concerned about the assault rate in downtown Springfield.
