Kenyan has certainly been courting the important "cell block" constituency in DC. He's the criminals' friend on the Council.
Bullshit. He is a former prosecutor. He has been looking in other cities to see what's been effective around ex offenders.
I call BS. Kenyon McBarrie is the reincarnation of Mayor for Life Marion B; offenders are his 'base.'

Why do you think Grosso will fail? Silverman can't win. She won't get any black wards, but Grosso definitely could. My favorite is Kenyan McDuffie, but I don't think he's ready yet.
grosso or silverman would be awful. We need to swing back to the middle potilitcally. Those two just want to keep raising taxes, increasing the burden on everyone and ignoring middle and upper class families in public schools.

I am tired of this black and white talk. Can we try to get someone smart and effective instead?
