Isn’t this “Rocky” a filthy,worthless Marxist (redundant,I know)? If so,how could he possibly have become the mayor of Salt Lake City?????

Because the city proper is liberal and rodent. There hasn’t been a Republican Mayor of SLC since Jake Garn 33 years ago.

Quick question. Are their municipal elections partisan or non-partisan.

Rocky The Flying Squirrel couldn't be elected dog-catcher anywhere else in the state.

Palmer DePaulis was a pretty cool guy. He used to come to my shop on Saturdays and hang out wearing his old bib overalls. He's still around, working in the state government now. They don't make democrats like that anymore.

All numbskulls should really leave politics. Glad you’re going.
