For the record, the endorsement was in 2011, after Mr. Omar's first term in office. <br /><br />In this week's mail piece, Ms. Maczka is described by the Richardson Coalition as the "strong fiscal conservative" and they assert that "information has come to light" to show that Mr. Omar is "not effective" and taking "bad positions on issues". <br /><br />So what changed? Did Mr. Omar suddenly become a reckless fiscal liberal in his second term, or, did the City Council's slam-dunk pick for the next mayor suddenly find herself having to win the popular vote?<br /><br />That's a rhetorical question, and I'm no fool.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789719554729668560noreply@blogger.com
