That didn't take long. Where are the Gray voters now?

I say, warm up Mayor FENTY.

Anthony Williams was the best DC mayor of the last 40 years. I, too, wish that he were back in office.

Gray showed up this weekend at a neighborhood fair in NW. With swirling ethics issues, a sense that DC is drifting and concern that he lacks the "vision thing," what did he talk about? DC statehood!

I really should thank Tony Williams someday, because I believe he alone is responsible for creating about $400,000 in equity in a NW DC house I bought in 1996. People actually laughed at us for not choosing, say, Crystal City or Ballston.

so "thanks." And please come back.

Don't blame me, I voted for Fenty. I thought he was doing a good job. I can't believe that no one saw through Mr. Marion Barry revisited (aka Vincent Gray) My husband and I miss Tony Williams the most; however, while I think he did a great job, he was helped a bit by the soaring economy in the late 90's that spurred all the downtown, U Street, Columbia Heights and H Street NE development.
