We definitely do not want for our next mayor, or even our next councilmember from that district, this vengeful, spiteful, vain person, Gifford Miller, whose original first name is not originally Gifford but was changed in an attempt to sound classier.
Yes, you are right that Miller is a piece of work and will be running for mayor. Even worse, it looks like Charles Barron will be running for mayor as well. I don't know which is scarier! With Bloomberg the only republican running for mayor next time around I don't know what will happen. Do you know of any republican who might challenge Bloomberg in the primary or are Bloomberg's bucks too much for someone else to take on?
In the case of speaker of the council, I think Jose Rivera from the Bronx is possibly eyeing that position and I don't know who else.
