With nothing more than a rumor about Mike Honda’s anticipated move to the White House, the campaigning has begun. Termed out Assemblywoman Sally Lieber plans to begin precinct walking in Honda’s district. Perhaps she should walk the precincts with a Realtor because she'll need a find a place to live in the district because she doesn't now...
And if Eshoo takes the leap to the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue...
...then State Senator Joe Simitian has said he would be interested in running for Anna Eshoo’s seat.
Supervisor Don Gage will be looking for something to keep himself occupied before long. His recent rendition of Edna St. Vincent's Millay's "First Fig" at a Supervisor’s meeting has Watch Dog wondering if he’ll apply for the newly created post of Poet Laureate.
Is San Jose City Councilwoman Nora Campos is apparently on the short list for Vice Mayor. Apparently the cozy nature of her collaboration with the Mayor at last week’s council meeting has fueled the rumor. Campos and Reed rarely see eye to eye. Pulling her close as Vice Mayor might dilute her potential run at Mayor in 2010.
Richard Rodriguez, (soon-to-be former) Superintendent of the Luther Burbank School District was terminated prior to completion of a second audit in December. Rumors are flying that Rodriguez’ contract ended early because the board needed outgoing boardmember Pamela Ortiz’ vote. The District will be paying Rodriguez $250,000 for the early termination –- he was expected to retire sometime next year. The District will also be paying for an interim superintendent and a search committee. That’s a lot of money for any district, much less one with one school. What's in the December audit that could be so bad...Watch Dog will be there to let you know...
