For some reason, LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has a column on the Right-leaning Fox and Hounds Daily:
When all is said and done, we must recognize that there is no perfect solution to this perfect economic storm. But we can begin by turning our sights away from a short-sighted vision of government as it is – of leadership without direction; of elected officials accepting an unworkable status quo – and start thinking about government as it should be: A place that serves the best interests of every resident; that makes the common good its top priority; that charts a new course toward innovative ideas and sensible solutions; and that acts on the belief that its first responsibility is to the citizens and families it represents. (Fox & Hounds 6/10/09)
There aren’t a lot of specifics here, but this does read like something from a guy who is about to run for Governor. But, who knows with Antonio? At any rate, you would assume that if he wants to run, he’d need to say something fairly soon.
He’s not my ideal candidate, but I’m starting to get REALLY depressed about the other two choices right now … I could get excited about Antonio’s campaign.
sounds a lot like what all politicians say.
and it’s his column is probably on a right leaning column because people are starting to think the right is right about the economy.
And the comments again! Says 3, but I only see 1.
