I am not part of his campaign, though I suppose if asked I would help.  I am 
far from being a groupie, for one I am not sexually attracted to Huell and for 
two I don't follow him around.  I do watch his program when I get a chance and 
enjoy most of them.

I am someone who loves the city I live in and am quite sick of the state it is 
in.  I am sick of politicians on the take, a self absorbed and unaware 
populace and a local news media who finds it more amusing to make fun of the 
city or make it look bad than to actually cover the important issues.

Now, Huell, or any other decent candidate for mayor, can't solve all of those 
problems, but one with his personality using the bully pulpit of the mayor's 
office could help to begin to turn things around.

Though I will probably vote for Richard Riordan, it doesn't make me happy.  I 
am even more aghast at the possibility of Tom Hayden becoming mayor.  LA needs 
to grow up and become a real city, like New York, Boston, Chicago or San 
Francisco - or it needs to turn off the lights and close down.
