Well, as I've said I'm not big into politics, this stadium situation has really grabbed me into some local politics because I'm a big TigerCats fan and CFL fan. So I am more or less an under-knowledged voter on many issues, that much I'll admit.
With the Mayor, I'm having a difficult time with him because of his aloof style that puts me off listening to him or watching him. I guess that's my problem, it is his personality afterall and we all have unique personalities. I listen to Larry and while I know he's misbehaved as we all know, he comes across to me more humane and approachable and workable. I know that's not a fair way of judging but that's me, I don't spend a lot of energy into politics or politicians and don't read much about it or them.
I guess what I expect from a politician isn't all the answers or to be extraordinary on the IQ scale, but I do expect them to be an excellent communicator and facilitator and bridger if you will and the Mayor, to me, doesn't cut it at all in these respects.
Of course if he'd just build the darn stadium where Bob wants it and use the money for it that he's promised for the WH site, I'd love him and vote for him in a second. ;)
Ok, I'm shallow and don't have much going on between the ears, I'm open to that criticism I'll admit. ;)
