McGinn and Mallahan Agree to More TV

Posted by on Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 3:14 PM

Mike McGinn's mayoral campaign sent out a news release earlier today announcing that they had accepted an invitation from KING television to debate Joe Mallahan. This is reminiscent of an announcement last week that McGinn accepted a challenge to three other televised debates on KOMO, KIRO, and KCTS. "I'm ready to debate my opponent at any time and in any place," McGinn said in a news release at the time. But where is Clan Mallahan—are they going to debate toe-to-toe? "Of course we are," says his spokeswoman, Charla Neuman. Mallahan's campaign hadn't made a big deal about the debate: the date's isn't set yet. The KING showdown will likely be held on October 19, 20, or 21.

McGinn just released this cool web site to submit and vote on "ideas" for Seattle: http://www.ideasforseattle.org

Mallahan has a similar web site, full of "ideas" like "stop building bike lines!" and "throw crack smokers in jail!" and "why aren't you throwing crack smokers in jail!!!" http://joemallahan.ning.com/profiles/blo…

Obviously, someone needs to get a crayon to do up a cutout image of Ed Murray as a write-in participant in these debates, wearing a crown that says "Disgruntled Nickels Fans Write-in Candidate".

OK, that might require a box of crayons.

See if box of birds has any ...

SLOG has their noses so far up McGinn's ass they don't even acknowledge any other possibilities.

Don't be surprised when Mallahan turns his back on those who don't support his candidacy.

;)

just sayin'
