#1 I haven't posted much on it. I've been ashamed for the city, which is apparently incapable of feeling shame itself.

I seriously doubt it could be any worse than Atlanta Fred.

#2 Let's not forget that Schaefer was preceded by The Hon. Tommy D'Alessandro whose most notable political achievement was siring Nancy Pelosi who got the hell out of Dodge as fast as she could. Baltimore's still the Land of Pleasant Living, but better appreciated from the County.

#3 All "cities" of over 30 people have a bad apple or three. We have our share here in Colorado Springs. Our "Mayor" recently made headlines because of the deals he made trying to keep the US Olympic Committee in Co Springs. It figuratively bankrupted the city, both cash-wise and legitimacy-wise. Factor in the city's constant fight with TABOR (Taxpayers Bill of Rights) and its founder, Doug Bruce, and you have a constantly running passion play.
