[Leica] WWKD?

[jsmith342 at cox.net (Jeffery Smith)]

Nagin's not bad. Actually, Mitch is probably more of a risk. He is
considered to be the "lightweight" of the family, sort of a Dan Quayle type
who does best when he isn't talking. Nagin was okay in my book until he made
the dumb chocolate city statements and then refused to apologize for it.
That made him seem a little too much like George Dubya Bush. Comparisons to
New York's mayor weren't fair as NY had a plethora of resources available on
9/11, and Nagin had none other than the media.

I know he is controversial. He's evidently made some remarks that have upset
a lot of people.

But from here, he's been looking good every since he started swearing on TV.
