I Endorse Casey Corr…

..for Deputy Mayor.

Hey, Greg, I know you’re going to be doing some staff reshuffling for your second term. And I hear Deputy Mayor Tim Ceis is headed to the private sector.

Sadly, Casey Corr didn’t get that council gig. So, I’ve got a great idea. Why not tap Casey for Tim Cies’s job? You guys obviously like Casey a lot: About half your staff contributed money to his campaign against Council President Jan Drago (including you). And your staff ran Corr’s outreach efforts.

So: Since you love Casey, (and since he loves everything you do), why not give the guy a job? Had he won against Jan, he would have been working for you on the council anyway.

I know sometimes you find ethics rules burdensome Greg, but it would be more appropriate to have someone who’s doing your bidding—actually on your payroll. So, I say, Casey Corr for Deputy Mayor. What do you think?
