All you hear from the candidates are jingles. Last nigh, a candidate dedicated a too large part of his TV time showing people smilling with a background repeatfull song. Another one let a school teatcher play a guitar and sing poorly form more than two minutes.
They are running for mayor. This is serious stuff! They will be in charge of our money. But thats not as complex as being in charge of the will of the people... its more like being a party organizer, you got to remember to plan what to do with the garbage and mind how people should get in or out if it rains.
Promisses are often generic, like diminish hospital lines or increase job offering. They should be telling us they will get our money and hire good people to organize traffic better. They should tell us the city will become a good employer because it is a service provider to people and that matters as much as constructing buildings.
It's better to go to a party when you know they hired a fancy buffet. The party organizer can't cook, but he sure has a taste!
