Democrat Aguirre endorses Republican Faulconer
Do we really need a Mayor? It appears that Todd Gloria and the Council are running things better than when Bob Filner was there. It upsets me to watch the media mudslinging between Alvarez and Faulconer. We as voters are supposed to sift through that mud and some how come up happy about our decision? Todd Gloria is the "Interim Mayor" until we vote in a new one. He has stated that he had no interest in becoming Mayor. Why? Todd Gloria is turning down a $235K/year salary? Why? I think I know the answer... ACCOUNTABILITY! You see, San Diego needs someone we can point a finger at when things turn ugly (Filner?, Filner?, Anyone?). Regardless of who is voted in, he cannot make everyone happy. Todd Gloria and the Council know this. Accusations of downtown businesses or Union money being funneled through to the new mayor are going to be flying faster than the Mayor's soft leather chair has had time to cool off. So I ask once more. Do we really need a mayor? Do we, really?— February 5, 2014 7:06 p.m.
