Antonio talks leadership

by: Brian Leubitz

Wed Jun 10, 2009 at 18:24:04 PM PDT


For some reason, LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has a column on the Right-leaning Fox and Hounds Daily:

When all is said and done, we must recognize that there is no perfect solution to this perfect economic storm. But we can begin by turning our sights away from a short-sighted vision of government as it is - of leadership without direction; of elected officials accepting an unworkable status quo - and start thinking about government as it should be: A place that serves the best interests of every resident; that makes the common good its top priority; that charts a new course toward innovative ideas and sensible solutions; and that acts on the belief that its first responsibility is to the citizens and families it represents. (Fox & Hounds 6/10/09)

There aren't a lot of specifics here, but this does read like something from a guy who is about to run for Governor.  But, who knows with Antonio? At any rate, you would assume that if he wants to run, he'd need to say something fairly soon.

I'd pick Antonio over Gavin and Jerry ... (0.00 / 0)
He's not my ideal candidate, but I'm starting to get REALLY depressed about the other two choices right now ... I could get excited about Antonio's campaign.

same old same old (1.00 / 1)
sounds a lot like what all politicians say.

and it's his column is probably on a right leaning column because people are starting to think the right is right about the economy.


um, no...facts are stupid things (5.00 / 1)
Yeah, I suppose you'd like to think that, but facts are stupid thngs that get in the way of your bullshit.

In terms of my question about why he's posting it on the right-leaning site, my question was in the context of somebody mulling over a race in the Democratic primary

But, you seem to be rather disconnected with reality, what with your accusations that I took money from oil companies...so that I could argue that we should tax them.

At this point, the trolling has become annoying.

I think?

Yes, "talk" is the correct verb connecting Villaraigosa to leadership. (0.00 / 0)
And the comments again! Says 3, but I only see 1.

Disclosure: I'm awesome.
