and why the local developers love these candidates, but hey... it's only the first layer of the onion.

In fact, it is not just San Diego. It is hardball politics.

We had a month from hell here. I did not realize just how physically exhausted I was last night.

And if this one explodes even half as intensely, DeMaio will drop out and move somewhere else I suspect. It's not that he's a quitter, but any scandal exploding before an election...

in Congress.

More fun fact, you got to wonder why now?

More questions... but hey, just keep paying attention to the first layer of the scandal.

But I do love detente.

He could have stayed home to masturbate, but I think it shows real dedication to your city to use its many fine public parks for your masturbatory needs. With so many budget cuts since 2008, our public parks have really been taking it on the chin (just let it go). If we don't use our parks, we'll lose them. I say it's time to roll up our sleeves with Carl DeMaio and get busy with our, um, "public works" project.

while we waited for the city council to come back, and I mean the LOCAL MEDIA, was who exactly did DeMaio piss off? Given he was a darling of the Lincoln Club and all of a sudden not so much. Why now?

Oh never mind, I am supposed to just be impressed by the first layer of any scandal and never ask if there is more to it. My bad. The hardball politics are just getting weby, weby interesting.

How about the DEA agents who locked Daniel Chong in a room for 5 days with no food or water- one of those guys available to run?
