Arrogance breeds arrogance in subordinates too. There's Peter Nickles of course, and Dan Tangherlini, who is, as my grandmother used to say, "a real piece of work."

Mayor Fenty probably wouldn't have to face the problem of council members aligning against him, if he weren't so spiteful and vindictive. It really is a shame, because he has a lot of great ideas that, with the right consensus building, would be accepted by most of the council and would have a shot at success. But Fenty would rather go down in flames than concede even an inch to council. I seldom agree with Colby King, but he is right on the money this time. Fenty's arrogance just might come back to bite him.

He was paired with Michael Steele. So they had a Republican operative paired with a "Democratic" one, who's actually running as an "Independent" for the DC Council. What a total crock, and makes a complete mockery of the Home Rule Charter. Michael Steele wished him "good luck in that local thing you've got going on."

seriously, that guy needs to be put out to pasture. i just hope that the same polling firms that predicted a scott bolden blow-out a couple years ago are the ones calling this one too. michael brown needs to go back to his house in chevy chase and stay there.

What the heck was "independent" Michael Brown doing on the Fox News right now, representing the Democratic viewpoint. He even said "we" (as in Democrats.) [eye roll]
