I disagree that Cheh is all that fair, smart and polite (she can be quite dismissive). But I vehemently agree that Cheh would be a far better mayor than “Marion Bowser.” |

The new Comprehensive Plan proposals from Bowser’s office of planning (OP),are very interesting to read and compare. Lots of changes would override existing plan elements in Ward 3 that require regulators to consider the impact of large development on nearby neighborhoods and impact on infrastructure like streets, school capacity and parks. Bowser’s OP wants to upzone height and density in many Ward 3 neighborhoods including historic districts. Yet in the Ward 4 specific comp plan elements, OP is promoting all sorts to new provisions to preserve neighborhood character, preserve green space and view sheds, protect historic resources, ensure that new development reflects scale and density of neighborhood. Ward 4 is Bowser’s home and original political base, and the difference is OP proposals is striking. |
Eh, I’d side with her over that utter imbecile Bowser on just about anything. |
| Wouldn’t it be good if a reasonably intelligent and ethical candidate ran for mayor? In other words, an unBowser. |
Sure, but it’s DC so that’s not going to happen. |
Wow..so is she trying to "sock it to ward 3"? And why? All the rushed density development in beautiful columbia heights was such a fiasco (could have been so much nicer with a little less building and a little more thought). Is that her dream for ward 3? |
Liberal cities get what they deserve. If you want to live in DC, deal. I went kicking and screaming to Arlington and when I saw my kids’ school, I never looked back. |
Because Arlington is the bastion of red state politics, demographics and public education.

Being dismissive of nitwits is part of being smart. -np |
Arlington boasts a 75.8% Democratic population. |
But Arlington is not run by a corrupt Third World-style kleptocracy. |
| The amount of racism from you white liberals in this thread is astounding. If Bowser were white the insults from you all wouldn't be this vicious |
Glad I noticed. DC is doing GREAT economically, these people are being OVERLY NITPICKY for a REASON. I wonder WHY that is... |
If Bowser were white she wouldn’t even make it to middle manager in a government department. Only in DC’s weird brew of racial politics could a stupid, somewhat crooked mediocrity like Bowser rise to become mayor. |
