Outside of Republicans and the sole reporter Doug Curlee, I'm not hearing "This is what happens when you elect a Democrat," "this" being that you get not only an un-vetted, un-investigated, media-enabled sleazebag but harmful Democrat policies as well. I'm not sure that lesson is going to change even if he serves a full term; Democrats love the stuff he's doing outside of his sexual-assault-related activities.<br /><br />If he stays in for a full term, he'll not only waste our city treasure, he'll expand and entrench the special interests he's supporting now. Imagine after four years, trying to elect a responsible mayor who will take back Filner's handouts. We all know these things are harder to undo than they are to do.<br /><br />I say his sexual assault scandal is a gift. It's an opportunity for a do-over, and I'll repeat that an election in which Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama are not on the ballot might get more results more reflective of what San Diegans want. The sooner the city, the state, and the nation see what Republican governance can accomplish the better.J.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243899014416529945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4321422627188917599.post-85888964683324041922013-08-04T00:32:05.677-07:002013-08-04T00:32:05.677-07:00Author, I'm one of those (R)s B-Daddy has kept...Author, I'm one of those (R)s B-Daddy has kept in confidentiality, though, in my sitting this one out, it is not out of a desire to drag down the Democrats (an admirable collateral benefit, to be sure) but rather in disgust that this man was voted to the office of mayor of San Diego in the first place.<br /><br />I've been calling it my salute to the low information voter. Has anyone who has been paying attention to this guy over the years really not think he was a massively flaming douchebag of the highest order and thus not fit to serve as the mayor of our fine city?<br /><br />That's why the just-recent opposition to him by the likes of Donna Frye rang so hollow. Like, she didn't know? Child, please.<br /><br />You and B-Daddy make absolutely valid points but... Nope. Sorry. Call it tough love or taking the medicine or me just having a little temper tantrum over here in the corner but I want this one to sting.<br /><br />You voted for this creepy jerk, San Diego, now we all have to take a bite out this massive s**t sandwich. Enjoy.<br /><br />Dean <br /><br />Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02448369692335981936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4321422627188917599.post-79630863631546727112013-08-03T22:47:14.384-07:002013-08-03T22:47:14.384-07:00It's nice to see you back, and I can scarcely ...It's nice to see you back, and I can scarcely believe there are San Diego Republicans who want Filner to stay in order to "drag down Democrats." That's really throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I can't wait for the recall and then the special election. Without the presence of Obama's electoral behemoth, we might even get a Republican mayor. Any serious prospective candidates yet? Too bad Carl DeMaio has moved on to a congressional race.J.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243899014416529945noreply@blogger.com
