I Love Your Wife

Entertaining - Yes. Productive - No.

Basically, I like boozing, schmoozing losers winning (and womanizing) as much as the next guy. But, when I’m not watching nighttime dramas, I’m busy watching my city’s homelessness and violence grow – two issues that Gavin campaigned upon and have steadily worsened since his ascendance. I’m indifferent to Gavin’s ‘poor personal decisions.’ Rather, I’m concerned how his ‘poor decisions period’ affects us all. This is why I am moved to post. I’m not political and don’t claim to have any answers. I only know I don’t want to see Gavin win another election.
