Current endorsed Mara.

Ha, so they get paid twice? Mainly like political consultants, but sometimes I find them very loathsome.

I am not backing Frumin. Have met him a couple of times and I am just not impressed. His responses sounded like an incumbent's - and he doesn't even have the job!

Feel like this is more for his vanity - needs something to do, etc.

This is a pretty big endorsement. The writing was more or less on the wall when Sharon Ambrose endorsed Elissa, but it's still pretty big.

CM David Grosso has endorsed Elissa Silverman (http://dcist.com/2013/04/grosso_endorses_silverman_in_at-lar.php). I think the Current may endorse today, but they are not online yet, and the paper does not come into my neighborhood. Has anyone seen it?

According to the DCist article, Jack Evans has now joined Barry, Bowser, and Orange in supporting Anita Bonds. I don't know how that stacks up against Grosso, Greater Greater Washington, Sharon Ambrose, and Kathy Patterson for Silverman, or WaPo for Patrick Mara, but I know they all envy Matthew Frumin's coveted DCUM endorsement. Judging by a survey I did (of myself), Silverman and Frumin share very similar audiences, and I think they would do well to get together and negotiate (or coin-toss) one of them into withdrawing and endorsing the other. Not likely, I suppose.
