    Myles, read more slowly. I never said anything about “hearing Condon.” I was quoting someone else….
    And, I agree with you: A block vote of O’Mahony, Keighran and Deal is not desireable.

    Pat-I respect and admire your dedication and insightfulness. Please keep it up.

    Pat-what exactly did Council do in response to your concerns?

    Thanks Joanne – I think that is called hearsay “sorry for the spelling”. It is convenient when you want to make a point on why you are not supporting someone.

    Your candidates have had 3 votes to take care of MONSTER homes for the past 2 years and they have done NADA.

    San Mateo has the same problem with campaign funding. A lot of Mayor Mathews and John Lee’s money is from developers, real estate companies, unions, etc. The Beresford Neighbors group has this: http://www.beresfordhillsdale.org/
