So I know nobody really cares right now, with the recall going on and all, but San Francisco’s about to vote in a new Mayor this November, and I think it’s a pretty important election worth paying attention to.
I’m voting for Tom Ammiano. He’s my local rep, and a damn good one at that.
He also doesn’t hate poor people, like Gavin Newsome apparently does (arguably, the front runner in the race). As demonstrated by his actions in last year’s “Care Not Cash” campaign, Gavin likes to blame the poor for being poor and to take their benefits away without explicitly defining what “services” they are going to get in return…but that’s another story. (One with a happy ending actually, because a judge threw out the whole “Care Not Cash” fiasco some months ago!)
Anyway, for this article, that’s all beside the point. This puppy’s just plain funny.
Update: I just confirmed w/the Ammanio folks that these are real interviews! They are not made up.
(Funny, I guess Ammiano was the only one that got the Bladerunner reference 🙂
