Yes, that's a great idea - leave a hate-filled message on a reporter's voicemail, where it will promptly get published for the world to hear. I can't wait until this loser tries to run for office again. You know he will.

The reporter Dan Koller, who was the recipient of the call, described Mr. Sheridan this way in Dallas City Council District 13 Election Preview:

The other candidates are Jacob King <snip> and Richard Sheridan, who’s best known for being physically removed from public meetings after exceeding the time limit for speaking.
