Admittedly, not everything can be as enticing as Larissa Riquelme rolling around in bed wearing skimpy underwears.
However . . .
THE SLY JAMES VS. MIKE BURKE MAYORAL CONTEST PROMISES TO BE A SNOOZEFEST OF EPIC PROPORTIONS!!!
I could be wrong but Sly James doesn't do negative campaigning and Mike Burke knows he'll risk coming off like the bad guy if he attacks Sly James.
Even worse . . . They're very friendly with one another.
This is a classic Kansas City contest of politeness where we have to rely on the secrecy of the voting both to express all of the nasty, political and racial divisions that are just beneath the surface of EVERYTHING in this town.

oh tony, i'm sure you will, on this blog, by way of your kickass tipsters, find a way to throw a couple of nuclear explosion pics into the mix.
ReplyDeleteWhen local government is done well, it IS boring. There's arelationship between the police and the residents, so there's less crime and more get solved; streets get fixed; businesses can predict what's going to happen year-to-year; snow gets plowed; trash gets picked up.
ReplyDeleteWe've laready lived through years of circuses. Let's try to be bored for a while.
YEA! Cannot wait for boring! Either one will make a good Mayor! The Northland will never vote for a black man, sad to say.
ReplyDelete10:40 - that's how we ended up with that idiot funk last time (instead of alvin brooks).
