Setting aside, for the moment, the fact that we'll never be able to test this because (as someone else pointed out) the John Birch Society will be led by a card carrying socialist a long time before San Francisco gets a Republican mayor, how do you think this "would've been written differently"?
The story would be much more hostile in it's judgment of what Newsom has done and would probably contain more sordid details in an attempt to enrage the community.
Altho, this is all hypothetical because we're talking about SF here and as someone else on this thread said, in SF there wouldn't be a GOP mayor. And SF being what it is there would be very little if any outrage in the community.
