This past Tuesday, 4 city councilors decided to attend election parties of their designated parties. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Selberg, Erickson and Neitzert attended the GOP bash while Pat Starr made his way to the weeping room at DEM party headquarters. Starr opted out of speaking at their shin-digs, but Neitzert and Selberg made a brief statements and Erickson was the emcee at the GOP event. Like I said, nothing wrong with supporting your party even if you serve on the council as a supposed non-partisan. But I wondered why councilor Stehly did not attend the GOP event after being invited by Erickson.

Stehly told me she believed in staying non-partisan as a councilor, though she belongs to the Republican party and believes in a lot of their values, “Hey, I represent Republicans as well as Democrats and Independents on the city council. I don’t need to get myself tied up in party politics. We need to care about others and treat them with respect no matter what political party they belong to.”

    It was a strongly divided election. Gloating or mourning doesn’t help going into the future. Admirable on her part. What the city doesn’t need is more Huether-like ego celebration.

    Theresa has lots of class. Intelligence, distinction, and experience is a rare combination. The only woman I’ve known that looks good with or without makeup. Someone like her would be a good first woman president.

    To be a first man I must start working on my supermodel figure.

    Confucious say, never mix politics and religion. However, humor after an election like this must happen.

  5. Nitezert and a microphone? Huh…I would have never made that connection.
