"prepare to make the transition and pass the baton." LOL! Interesting choice of metaphor.

If I was his successor I'd tell him "Uhh ... no thanks - you keep the baton!"

Don't use the word "blew" around the soon to be ex-mayor. He must might.

I guess even voters in Seattle have their limits.

Gotta remember he had a little "r" after his name. If he had been a demo-rat, he would still be mayor.

The Spokesman-Review newspaper conducted an undercover investigation and reported in a series of articles beginning May 5 that West was a closeted homosexual who visited gay chat rooms on his city-owned laptop computer and offered internships and other favors to young men he hoped to have sex with.
Not that there's anything wrong with that . . .

It's Spokane. Dunno about the city itself, but the eastern half of Washington is as conservative as Idaho.

R or D? I refuse to answer that until you read the article.

I didn't know HGTV did politics or gay friendly shows You're right, mainly A&E, however, HGTV decorators are starting wear thin. Just about the time you see a sledgehammer about ready to strike some drywall, they cut to a guy discussing the ambiance of some fruity-colored room :^{
