From some recent presser copy: Burke Commercial Spot Encapsulates Recent Mayoral Endorsements . . .
"On Wednesday, February 16, something rare happened in Kansas City politics: everyone agreed. Three former mayors - Mayor Kay Barnes, Mayor Richard Berkley, and Mayor Charles B. Wheeler - all endorsed Mike Burke to be Kansas City's next mayor."
Again, I like the HD Video . . . I'm not sure how much the endorsements matter but I'm just disappointed that Charlie Wheeler is out of the race because that was where I wanted to throw away my vote.
Developing . . .
This is ad is a little better than his first one which was a strange one. Hope the Flunk doesn't end up with against Burke. That Kay Barnes quote will not play so well.
ReplyDeletedeath kiss of kay barnes to Burke
ReplyDeleteAlvin got one in 2007
Al Brooks lost because of A Brooks not Kay Barnes. Moving on.
ReplyDeleteDidn't Kay Barnes get elected mayor - twice?
ReplyDeleteBarnes, Berkley, and Wheeler, that's three votes. Good for him.
ReplyDeletebye, bye.
ReplyDeleteAlvin Brooks' death kiss was Pat Gray who robbed him blind in what was easily the worst mayoral campaign run in recent memory. Who is Gray advising now? Rowland or Funkhouser via Roe? Rowland is the next should have been mayor to be screwed over.
ReplyDeleteIs this a political "ponzie scheme?"
ReplyDeletelol Or, is this just normal KC politics? Involve yourself in a mayoral race (Wheeler,) then bail out and give your vote/s off to whom you really want to win.
Yeah. More slight of hand mistrust offered to the KC voter. Same 'ole same 'ole.
I'll pass.
Paul is right. Remember, Burke's 35 years of "volunteerism" paid him generously - Barnes gave him the Port Authority job that paid him $4 million - and - he took thousands of dollars from Renaissance North and left us with two boarded up houses. I think I wouldn't call him to "volunteer" if I were you!!!!
ReplyDeleteTwo out of the three former mayors presided over the city's rapid decline. All he needs is Cleaver to complete the trifecta of bad mayors.
ReplyDeleteMike Burke just looks and sounds creepy. The thought of listening to his high-pitched, pre-pubescent, nasally, twangy, whiny voice for 4 years is absolutely terrifying.
ReplyDeleteBurke in a three way only happens if he finds two hookers and pays them. His wife has been out of the picture for years. Have you seen her at one political event supporting her husband? Hell, even SHE doesn't want Burke to win.
