This, Michael, is why I can't vote for you. You're saying, on one hand, that the Tribune's describing you as a "52 year old graduate student" hurts your chances of election to the school board and was a hurtful thing for them to do. Yet you turn around and in the next sentence visit the same kind of hurtful (and inaccurate) description on Shapiro. You may not be the Tribune, but there are some 850 people, minimum, who will have that description of Shapiro to consider when they're cogitating their vote. It gives me the feeling that you are not a guy I should be voting for to work in the service of children.
