Well, duh! What did you expect?
Pound for pound, Kenny delivers.
Couldn't we break this list into two categories...most corrupt and most incompetent ?
Kenny wins on most outrageous, wastes most time on nonsense, biggest anger management problem, most annoying to colleagues,least effective for his constituents except in meaningless ways, biggest troublemaker but he's really just a joke. All he does well is what most two year olds do well, get attention with temper tantrums. Only he has no redeeming cuteness like most toddlers.
9:31...extremely well stated regarding our porcine politician.
Is Doung Anderson a typo or Freudian slip? BB
Where's Rudy on your new poll? Or is it b/c he's technically not a politician but under contract?
it seems either all the voters are racists, or blacks really are the worst politicians.
Let me see, as much as I criticize the gang of five in Madison County, at least they got the E911 right which is more than I can say for Robert Graham and Doug Anderson.
Did ya mean to spell Doug Anderson's name Doung? ha
Still too broad of a poll. Too many don't share influence. State to County to City. Each has their own problems. And how about a "want to be governor bad enough to throw momma under the bus"?
My vote was for Elvis. Seems to me some of the comments show that voters to the poll are delving into disagreements over policy. If this is strictly about being a politician, I would think it would be about doing things that are not in the interest of being reelected. If that were the standard, then Stokes would be nowhere near the top, because he obviously knows how to use wedge issues to get reelected even if he does have the policy brain of a toenail clipping. Probably the same with Lumumba, he may be a race-baiting numbnut. But, he is playing to his "kawnstichents" as George Flaggs would refer to them. That gets you reelected, and that in my mind means you are a good politician. Well, maybe not good in the case of some of them, but certainly not the worst.
