Mayor Mike McGinn's first act is over—that much is for sure. Now that the tunnel is a settled issue, The Stranger McGinn doesn't have an all-consuming purpose signature issue. What lies in our his future?

Is Dominic right in saying that McGinn is "the indisputable loser of the August election. Face-plant. In the mud. Limbs hog-tied and floundering?" (If it's so indisputable, Dominic, how does Goldy dispute it in the very NEXT COLUMN, huh?)

Or is that charming, contrary rapscallion Goldy right to say that "the biggest winner in last week's pro-tunnel victory was our anti-tunnel mayor, Mike McGinn... [because] the mayor and his advisers now have an opportunity to use last week's electoral defeat as a pivot toward reelection?"

The only way to settle this epic grudge match is through a Slog poll, which is obviously just like science. McGinn really ought to thank us for giving him this free advice. (JK, he totally told us to do it, like everything else).
