Need a Bigger Crown

Upon further review, Carole Taylor has decided not to seek the Mayor's chair in this fall's Vancouver election. Either Ms. Taylor has been paying attention to this page's musings, realized her political trajectory should be pointed towards Ottawa rather than 12th and Cambie, or she just got too creeped out with Larry Campbell repeatedly telling her what a MILF* she is.

Since the coronation has been cancelled, the field now opens up significantly for challengers to the myopic thug rule of Sam Sullivan and the NPA. Hopefully, COPE and Vision Vancouver can agree to play nice - David Cadman, a great a Councillor he is, should have learned from the past couple of years that the most time on Council doesn't necessarily equate to the best Mayor. This page would rather see a Raymond Louie or Gregor Robertson driving the fortunes of the centre-left in November rather than allow Sullivan to scream about the unionized barbarians at the gate again.

*"Mayor I'd like to ...." Frankly Senator Campbell, this page doesn't see the appeal.

I must be getting old, because I'm starting to run into GILFs.
