Political Crucifixion: I Didn't Play By The Rules

I Didn't Play By Their Rules …. They Nailed My Political Career! I am the first and youngest Irish Catholic Mayor elected in Concord, NH's 202 year history. I reached out to President Eisenhower as a young Republican but my path changed course when I met the Kennedy's and aligned myself with their ideology. As a state representative, I went on to a mayoral run and won. My political inheritance was HUGE ~ filled with corruption all the way to the top of several departments and with the local newspaper on their side ~ they joined forces and began their run to 'get me'. Creative yellow journalism I believe it would be called ~ sold a lot of papers in those days!!
