We don't have a Mayor, we have a town meeting/selectman system.  I 
remember well the year I was campaign manager for the Libertarian 
candidate.  Meet the candidates night:

Question:  How would each of you candidates increase the tax base:

Democratic candidate:  10 minutes about creating a fairer and more 
equitable tax climate, (translation raise taxes on beach property and 
summer residents)...

Audience:   Polite Applause.

Republican candidate  15 minutes on creating a more inviting business 
climate, (translation get some light industry in here to pay taxes, so 
we don't have to raise tax rates on shore properties and summer residents)

Audience:  Polite Applause.

Libertarian candidate, (my guy):  I believe taxation is theft!

Audience:  <shocked expressions>  sound of crickets chirping....

I'll never hold elective office in this town.
