[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh I think she is wrong. Catania stands a huge chance of winning this election. Unless you are voting on special interests alone, David Catania is the far superior candidate!!

It's just crazy unlikely:  he's not a democrat, he's white, he's gay.  Bowser would have to lose her ability to speak to lose the election.[/quote]

Oh really? Tell that to Adrian Fenty. He lost an election with one of the biggest approval ratings imaginable for mayor of major urban city.

Then there's Michael Bloomberg in NYC.

And let's not forget that a black man named Barack HUSSEIN Obama was elected twice.

All politics are local. [/quote]

Yeah, and our "local" is Washington, D.C.  You can read this board for any length of time and see how sensitive the issue of race is in this city.  A politician can make up any damned lie about racism this or racist that and win an election.  It will be very, very hard for this city to pull the lever in favor of a white candidate, even if the majority of folks agree he is a decent guy, AND while losing a lot of votes off the top from folks who believe their religion won't allow them to vote for him.  It will be interesting to see if Bowser pulls out any of the old D.C. rhetoric if Catania gets close in the polls.[/quote]
