		<description>&quot;he hasn&#039;t be busted for crack and that&#039;s where my bar is set&quot;

Heavens! I poke fun with his idea of what &quot;gels&quot; as he looks in the mirror before he steps out the door in return get a response that says in effect &quot;well at least he does not smoke crack&quot; LOL... seriously that is some funny 

Then secondly, DC gets into the idea of Potter and &quot;political leadership&quot; LOL... What political leadership do you speak of? As police chief during a time where violence in Portland escalated? Or when he thought jay-walking was the begining to the end of civilised society and had hoped to really crack down on the jaywalkers? Which one? I&#039;m curious... or do you have some treasure trove of wonderful moments that Potter exampled his &quot;political leadership&quot; that I am unaware of? just curious yo.
 
Portland it seems, voted for the dolt lame duck Potter based on his homey-ness and low campaign contributions hoping he would be Bud Clark the second or some such thing. Now granted, his opposition was not exactly a shining knight... yet he (if only a one-termer) would have had far better impact with leadership, policy, and accomplishment than this  &quot;irrelevant&quot; as Smashing put it in quoting the mayor, joke of a leader.</description>

		<description>Potter has neither fashion sense (don&#039;t care anyway) nor any political leadership. I think he said it best: &quot;I am irrelevant&quot;. Amen Brother. Amen!!!</description>

		<description>Ah Health, nothing screams intelligent discussion more than judging a person by the way they look and dress.  Obviously we all should have voted on our mayor based on his fashion sense, not his political leadership.</description>

		<description>Healthnut, try living in the nation&#039;s capital for several years and then come back to see if you have complaints about the mayor. This mayor may not be the best ever, but he hasn&#039;t be busted for crack and that&#039;s where my bar is set.</description>

		<description>Mr. Potter looks more like a hungover garbage collector in a cheap suit than the mayor of any city. 

Tell me again Portland, why did you vote for this loser?</description>
